Today is only day three of our Rivian ownership and had our first Rivian-to-Rivian wave! We ran a few errands and also checked out the EA charging location @Wal-Mart just to see what the process was like. Saw another R1T in LG waiting to pull from a side street about 10 blocks away from our house. So, of course, we all waved to each other! ?

I'll be passing through your fine town this afternoon/evening. If I see you, I'll be sure to wave. ?

Bend seems to be a real hotbed of Rivian activity.

Today, I had planned a bike ride with some other folks but it was too smoky (from Cedar Creek Fire). It was too late to contact everyone, so I decided to bike up to Thump Roastery at NWX and we could make a group decision whether to ride or not. Waiting in the parking lot for people to arrive, there was a black R!T leaving the lot. We decided to not ride and I told my friends I would ride back home, get the truck and drive back to show it off. Lo and behold! There was a R1T in RB right ahead of me as I pulled in.

Then later in the day, my wife and I decided to go for a spin in the truck and came across another LG R1T just west of Shevlin Park!

We just ran into (figuratively) a woman in her LG R1T over by On Tap about an hour ago. We also saw a GW R1T in the parking area at the turn off for Paulina Lake yesterday. Of course we had to flip a U-turn to tell him "nice truck". ?

we were stopped at a convenience store for a second and as I got in to leave a twin came in hot blowing the horn. They were down from Asheville and I think they had a good bit of miles already on her iirc

I might have been the LG R1T near Shelvin. I know of another R1T in FG in NWX and just saw an EC on Mount Washington drive this morning and waved. We have so many in Bend. When I was talking to the Rivian PDX Team they mentioned for every 4 they deliver in PDX, they have 1 in Central Or.

I was just South of Bend for the weekend with mine. But we took the Mach-E into town for supplies, leaving the R1T at the campsite attached to the trailer.

Did run into another Rivian charging in Springfield on the way home, though.

Saw a Limestone R1T parked at the Box Factory yesterday afternoon. My wife is now torn between that and RB.
