Are there any R1T reservation holders NOT planning to actually go through with the purchase of an R1T? Would you be willing to sell your reservation? Doesn’t have to be LE.
Rivian has already stated Max Pack will not be available until 2023. Most, I think, are receiving delivery timelines toward the second half or late 2023. Clearly they weren't able to get the results out of it they hoped they would. Or, some other issues arose from having 185 kwh battery. They likely would have been happy to collect an extra $10,000 on each car sold if they could have. I wanted the max pack too. But, decided that for my needs, the 314 mile battery will suffice just fine. Won't be the case for everyone. My Tesla has over 350 miles in range, per the car. But, never get close to that in real world driving. Tesla overstates their ranges while it appears most others are either, accurate or understated.If rivian doesn’t demonstrate Max Pack capability by June, I’m out.
Probably should have put "Rivian" in your title. Being that this is a Tesla Model S forum and all. Was thinking this would be about a pre-order for a Model S.Are there any R1T reservation holders NOT planning to actually go through with the purchase of an R1T?

Wow, I brain farted. Disregard. Last half. Thought I was in the Tesla forum still. Yikes. Getting too late I guess. Time for bed!

Would post in one of the Rivian forums. But, there are already posts of people offering up to $10,000 to buy reservations. Doesn't appear there are too many takers. Unlike making a $100 reservation for a Ford or GMC or most others, Rivian's $1,000 deposit to reserve likely weeded out the ones that weren't serious about actually purchasing. Ford has 200,000+ reservations. Rivian "only" 71,000. Rivian will likely turn a higher percentage of those orders into actual purchases than will Ford. I gladly made Hummer and Lightning reservations at $100. Turns out, the one I wanted most, the Rivian, I hesitated on, because of the $1,000 price tag. Figured I better be sure first.
Rivian should be building Test mules for the max pack NOW. We want them now too, but atvleastvtheybsboukd be testing and showing us. Waiting 2 more years is nit going to cut it with me. It’s max pack or. I thing for a Rivian project for me. Otherwise I will take the 500+ CT, or get an ICE truck and wait for the next cycle to pass thruWow, I brain farted. Disregard. Last half.

I haven’t heard of any upgrade option’’. You buy what you buy.Dumb question: Will Rivian offer a later "upgrade" option for those who want to get the R1T sooner and then upgrade to max pack at a later date?
Not unless you want to upgrade by buying a new vehicle.Dumb question: Will Rivian offer a later "upgrade" option for those who want to get the R1T sooner and then upgrade to max pack at a later date?
Thanks. I missed that in the FAQ.Not unless you want to upgrade by buying a new vehicle.

Can I change my battery pack after I take delivery? - Support Center - Rivian
No, the battery pack can’t be changed to a different size after installation. If you want to change your options after you configure your vehicle, you can update your configuration from the bottom of your preorder detail page in the Rivian Account. Note, some options may be produced later and...rivian.com

I was planning to buy the P1T Max Pack and was sent to the beginning of 2023. I am thinking of abandoning the purchase.Are there any R1T reservation holders NOT planning to actually go through with the purchase of an R1T? Would you be willing to sell your reservation? Doesn’t have to be LE.
That company is collapsing - has been collapsing for some time now. IMO at this point giving them money is the same as throwing away the money. If they go bankrupt you likely won't get your deposit back.What about Lordstown?

I have an R1T Max configured, with a Rivian-provided delivery window of mid-2023. The vehicle I want however is the R1S Max, a model that doesn't currently exist and can't be configured. Given that the R1S Max (really "Longer Range" - based on my conversations with Rivian CS, the battery pack will not have 180kWh capacity and will be not be called Max), is unlikely to start delivering until perhaps 2025, I'm torn between options.Are there any R1T reservation holders NOT planning to actually go through with the purchase of an R1T?
