Does anyone know if Rivian will optimize orders to serve large locations first (such as LA) or will it be first come 1st served?

Their website details that. Basically your delivery date depends on pre order date, location and configuration. Rivian has not shared how much location and configuration can affect delivery date. IMO location could significantly effect delivery date. This can of course have a positive or a negative impact on your delivery date.

Hope for best but expect the worst.

For a R1S ordered one month ago, what do you think is the max wait? 1 year? More?

Being honest I don’t know. If everything clicks just right then maybe the end of 2022.

The total pre orders is around 49,000. So you may be in the 45,000 crowd.

Variables:

• production rate (new manufacturer)
• supply chain issues
• covid
• location
• configuration
• lots of ‘others’

I pre ordered 3/20/21 and my own pessimistic prediction for my R1T is late spring 2023.

Hey @alxla. How did you spec your R1S? Are you willing to wait till Q2 2023?
