A truck carrying a R1T in King County, Washington was involved in an accident, damaging the R1T.

Was anyone in the area expecting a delivery soon?

How ironic that the truck that hit them is with Tacoma Electric Supply 😂
I'd be so pissed if that we're my truck.

I sure hope everyone is OK - that Elec Supply cab is crunched where the driver should have been.

The fire department said "only minor injuries reported", surprisingly. Driver of the truck is lucky to be alive.

As for that Rivian, how much do you guys think it will cost to fix it?

I'm sure there will be people out there that will still buy it AS-IS... at a discount of course.

In some states, an accident prior to delivery is not required to be disclosed unless it exceeds a certain percentage of the vehicles cost to repair.

If I ordered this color combination, I’d be pretty nervous. they could certainly find another vehicle for the intended owner, get this repaired then shipped to a state with such a law and do delivery.

Hopefully Rivian is not this sneaky, but Tesla certainly is. Speaking from experience as a an owner found out on the forum his ViN had been rear ended during a delivery in another state.

Wow, yeah, that’s an example of where swerving is not safer than just hitting full on. Missed the bumper and had the flatbed go through the windshield.

I guess the window of time the driver had to react was super short since they probably weren't paying enough attention in the first place.
