I have been lurking on this site for quite a while. I have a pre-order from November 2018. I initially was going with the least expensive truck until this year I opted for an adventure package after receiving emails that changing the configuration would result in an earlier delivery.
My original configuration was granite with the manual tonneau cover and cargo racks.
I had a test drive back in November 2021 where they brought the vehicle to the house.
I responded back to the email they sent me back in November on Memorial Day asking about status and that I was flexible with colors and options. Last week I received an email hooking me up with a guide, spoke to the guy on Monday. I was invited to the r1t shop. I pulled the trigger on a truck today. The only difference from my pre-order is it has a power tonneau cover.
I think folks have posted about this r1t shop. Essentially Rivian provides access for one week to visibility of vehicles that are available and I believe it's determined by your ZIP code. There appears to be a ton of Forest Greens. I was able to snag the limestone... Early days though... They say 6 to 8 weeks to delivery.
I have a 2018 Tacoma with everything on it. We do a bit of camping and tow a 5500 lb loaded trailer. I'm going to keep both vehicles to see if the charging Network gets to where it needs to be so I can tow over 150 miles without range anxiety... If anybody's interested I guess I can post about that.
Towed a ton in the Tacoma and it does not do that bad. They don't tell you that it'll get about 12 miles per gallon when you're going 60 or 70 miles an hour... But it is completely manageable. Excited to see how this truck tows and what the range ends up being.
We have a model 3 so I am hoping I can get an adapter that goes Tesla to ccs? Think that's what it is...
Fingers crossed. I live near Seattle Washington and I have only seen one of these on the road. It had Colorado plates.
