Sort of a noob to this forum so not quite sure how, but I’ll give it a go if it does deliver like it should on Monday. So many on here are having delivery struggles I just hope it all works out. Rivian has had my money for over a week now. Feels strange to send all that money and be paying insurance on something you are hoping will appear on a future date.

I can see how that would create some anxiety. The good part is that you have a delivery date. Many of us are still waiting to hear from our guides.

Exciting for you all in the Beehive State and for me! I left Park City in 2020 after order placed in early 2019 for R1S LE LG FE, with delivery now “promised” for May-June ’22. Anticipating picking it up in SLC if Rivian does not truck it up here to the wilds of Wyoming. Now I can plan to visit the SLC service center in mid April to check it out. What memories in 2019 picking up my Tesla and driving up Parley’s. I would rather pick up the R1S in SLC and have the fun of driving it to Evanston and north, or up “15” if the chargers necessitate that route. Shalom.

Coalville, UT to Jackson is 230 miles. I think that will be cutting it close in a large pack R1T. You could do a diversion to Bear Lake where there’s a 50kW CCS.

Is there no charger in Evanston? I am used to the Tesla supercharger there and have not checked yet for the Rivian.

Just Tesla as of now. I read somewhere that EA was installing one at Smiths in Evanston, but haven’t gone by there yet to verify. No mention of it on EA website, not even “coming soon” on there map. One would think that if it was under construction it would show as coming soon ?‍♂.

Replying to my own post. Drove to Evanston, WY today where there was purported to be an EA charging station under construction at the Smiths grocery store.

Voila! I guess not all news is fake news!

I asked the guys working on it if they knew when is was scheduled to open. They said they didn’t know, but did say that the construction should be complete within the next 2 weeks. This removes a major obstacle and dilemma for my frequent trips between Park City and Kemmerer.

This should also be helpful for folks road tripping across WY on I-80. It’ll be interesting to see what other chargers might be coming online on that route. Doesn’t make sense to just put one in Evanston if they aren’t covering the entirety of I-80 across WY, so I bet there are others also under construction.

I got an email for SLC First Mile test drive today! I’ve scheduled it for next Wednesday and they are bringing the truck to me in Park City.

I changed my config last night from Forest Edge to Black Mountain. Wonder if that had anything to do with the timing of the invite? ?‍♂

it’s getting real!

I am in Park city and got the first drive invite yesterday as well. Does anyone have any idea how long it usually is from First Drive to actual delivery?

Oh man! I didn’t get an invite. So jealous. I might ping CS this morning to see if I can get one.

Last week I swung by the service center in Salt Lake. They had 15 trucks and said it was going like gangbusters. Lots of different colors. Made me decide against the blue. I am curious what red Canyon looks like in person considering it is inspired by our red rock.

I am not sure it works that way. I don't have a guide assigned, but am in the March/April delivery group. It may be that these are two separate groups scheduling activities and one is not related to the other.
