I'm in Groton, MA, and received notice Thursday Nov 11th to complete the 8 step purchase process. I am waiting for the delivery date assignment, so cautiously optimistic. Recently, I was one of those that had Oct-Dec 2022 delivery move to Jan/Feb 2023. I am a day one Launch Edition pre-order holder from 2018.

Hopefully it doesn't get moved any further. Do you already have a home charging setup ready to go?

Yes, I have two chargers both 50amp circuits, so ready to go.

We are about the same but have been put off by our R1S interior being Forest Edge. What interior will you get?

I am pretty conventional midnight exterior (black) and black interior.

Interesting.

I assume you have (or will have) two EVs. Do you need two because you can't get one to reach both, or do you drive so much that both would need to charge every day?

Just curious. I was debating the placement of mine based on the location of the ports on the Rivian/Lucid/GV-60 and how my wife & I park in the garage (she pulls in head first and I back in).

The Rivian/Lucid combo works beast as both will be on the "inside." If we keep the GV-60, it will be as far as possible.

 

[clarksdv2]

It is a bit of convenience. We have 3 bays, and we back the cars into the garage. Our first charger was for a hybrid, and the port was forward of the driver side door. Then we purchased a Model 3 with its rear, left quarter panel placement. The vehicles are in separate bays and at the time I figured I would purchase a Tesla charger to maximize charge rate versus the JuiceBox that we bought for the hybrid.

Please post pictures when you get it. I am also black/black. Congrats!

This is really good news! I think this is the first post-delay new guide contact I've heard of. I say
"new" to distinguish from continuation of prior contacts/deliveries that were already in process when the late October delays occurred.

And I'll be very interested in when you get the R1S, as transit by train could take us into the new year.

Do you have a VIN?

We were told a couple of weeks ago that, at that time, no R1S had been built with any interior other than black. So your chances are better than ours this month. Like to know when the Forest Edge interiors will be produced in the R1S.

Yes have a VIN, so I could lock down financing and insurance

12/8 18 reservation 4459. I have completed 8 steps and had a delivery date of 11/4. The day of delivery I was notified that there was a problem detected in the final inspection. This problem was a brake line issue that will probably become a recall event for all truck on the road. The engineering team was dispatched to review and come up with a fix for the issue. I have been in contact with the delivery location on a daily basis since. as of today 11/16 there still has not been a repair implemented on my truck and it continues to wait for some fix implementation. I also have no information as to when I will take delivery of my truck. If is very frustrating as I know the truck is built and waiting, the truck is completely paid for, and I have started insurance coverage on a truck I do not have. I appreciate that Rivian found the problem prior to delivery, but I am not happy that it is taking multiple weeks to replace a brake line.

So do you have a R1S incoming? I know we all have shown immense patience, but I hear so many good things that my excitement is still not diminished.

Imm in the same place but have not received 8step yet!

 

[clarksdv2]

Just got a confirmed delivery date to my house of 12/13. I could have picked it up myself 12/7, but it wasn't convenient.

I wouldve changed my schedule to take delivery before they crash it!

R1S received 12/13.
