I wore some Rivian swag to the Mauna Loa eruption this morning.

An actual Rivian with that eruption in the background would have been so much more interesting, but me in a Rivian sweatshirt will have to do for now.

My second pre 3/1 preorder is currently configured as an R1S for a Hawaii delivery in 2024. I debate daily whether to change it to an R1T Max pack and wait it out, then ship my current R1T to Hawaii.

Regardless, I hope I can be one of the first to take a photo of a Rivian with an active volcano in the background.

Cool photos! Is that road below the volcano full of cars just trying to get a closer look?

Very nice! The Big Island is one of my favorite spots. Looking forward to going back in February!

Great pics.
I’d like to take my kids to see an active volcano & get close to lava. No better place than Hawaii. Are tourists welcomed or frowned on?

Yup and that was at 5:15 am. I wanted to get there at 3 in the morning to avoid the crowds, but I went with some neighbors and the didn't want to leave that early. We left around 4:30 am. The line of cars was very Field of Dreams like.

Tourists very much welcome:

but be respectful please. This article has a map of the viewing area road in case anyone else here is headed over. It's actually on an Army base that the military and island coordinated to open up:

Great to know that there’s another Rivian driving shrink!
