Well, if the R1T gets a Camp Kitchen, the R1S should at LEAST get a Pony Paddock option. Let’s hope it’s not a $5K up-charge!! The frunk will easily store one bale of hay for nourishment.
I was just assuming they were joking...
I was joking, but apparently this is a real need.

I can’t blame you man. If not for the non-negotiable high prices at the dealers, I probably would have jumped at an F150 Tremor or Raptor.
Exactly what I’m doing. Enjoying our new Gen 3 Raptor until we get an actual delivery date (not some kinda - hard to see through - window).

Man! The lengths some people will go to for an increase of just one or two more horsepower! You'll use way more than that with all windows down and the fans cranked to max at all times.

That said, it will be an interesting test of what the Chilewich can handle.... ??

Your signature indicates that you ordered the roof crossbars. The R1S roof seems quite plywood friendly.
Would you drive behind me with that setup?
Or you could open open a Pro account and get a discount and free delivery. Just sayin' :)
You certainly could. I have done that for large quantities myself even though, I own a truck. It is all about having options. I for one would want to have the option to pick up an extra drywall from a friends house who had it delivered with his Pro account when he offers it to me. The whole reason I want to have the option is that I don’t have the foresight to know what I could need it for and when. I seriously doubt the pony guy bought the vehicle with that purpose in mind. He did it because his vehicle gave him that option. If he listened to some idiot driving a sport car telling him what is good for him, he would never become an internet sensation. Buying a sport utility vehicle and wanting less utility from it makes no sense to me.

From the reviews, I am not sure I would want it anyway.
Curious what reviews made you change your mind? All of the ones I've seen have given me confirmation bias.

Isn’t your delivery window in March-April? Yes

"Your Launch Edition R1T delivery window is now March - April 2022."

I have a 1/5/2019. In the 3 years, I have received two generic emails regarding my deposit. No personal contact, no "guide" reaching out. Do I think my truck will be delivered in March - April 2022? HELL NO! This forum is so much like the Tesla forum. There are die-hard fanatics and a few realists. I am very much over the fan club hype. From the reviews, I am not sure I would want it anyway. For those of you foaming at the mouth to get one. I am sincerely happy for you. Enjoy.
“this forum for Rivian fans sucks so much, that’s why I check in three times a night and remind people that I hate Rivian.”

I'm very late to the party. I ordered mine today. I got a congrats email, and that was it. Just wondering, "now what?" Have you received any other communication from Rivian about your preorder?
Welcome and congrats on your recent preorder. If you enjoy emotional roller coasters while you wait 2+ years for a highly anticipated major purchase then buckle up your in the right spot.
It's doubtful you will get any tailored messages from Rivian until very near your delivery date but customer service responds promptly to chat, emails or phone calls and can give very basic 10,000' level info. This forum and it's members are a trove of info if you don't mind dedicating 3-12 hours daily to sift through the jumble to find the nugget your looking for.

Not mention winnowing through the 80% of people who are here for the same reason, while your ignore list slowly grows to include the 20% who are toxic Elon fanboys that would have everyone believe Rivian stock will crash tomorrow while RJ drinks the blood of your first born.

Not gonna lie. I’m kinda jelly. I shouldn’t have sold my Gen 2.

Well, that is sort of what I thought, so thanks for confirming. I think the healthy thing for me to do now is to only check in here about every 6 months lol.

In reference to the original purpose of the thread, has anyone heard anything this week? I wasn't sure if the emails would go out on a rolling basis or all at once. Maybe all at once at 2359 on 12/31?
