I was not contacted. BUT if you log into your Rivian account, on the left side of the page there is a menu with icons. One of those is a calendar icon for "Events" - that icon had a highlighted "1" next to it to tell me there was one new event. If you click on that icon you will find a form to sign up for a First Mile drive. They end on 11/20, so hurry and reserve a spot!

I saw this last night and I signed up - they are bringing a Rivian to my house on Wednesday and I get to drive it! I am very excited ...

Aw man! I was hoping for LA in Nov 😋

What was your pre-order date?

October 2020. I have a R1T LE configured.

Just completed test drive, Kevin was very chill and receptive-just what you would hope!

 

[O. horridus]

Just completed my drive. Wow, this is worth waiting for.

Spotted these yesterday heading west on I-80 just east of Salt Lake City. Likely heading to an event somewhere on the west coast or Vegas.

LA Baby Yeah! We're next!

Shame i likely won't get an invite being a late 2020 LE preorder

 

[O. horridus]

@LindsayH
Like I said above, watch your Rivian account for event notifications. I am also a late 2020 LE preorder, and I was able to sign up and drive an R1T.

I did see your post but no Calendar for me. I'm actually in San Diego so maybe they had no need to cast their net that far. I'll be hitting up CS tomorrow nonetheless!

 

[O. horridus]

Oh too bad. That's where it would be. Keep checking the site, it might show up at some point. My icon is also gone now that the Seattle event is over.

 

[JonW]

Has anyone heard anything about plans for a First Mile event in the Seattle area...?

 

[O. horridus]

They haven't had a big "First Mile" gathering anywhere for some time. But there have been a lot of "First Drive" events all over the country, and like we had here in November, where you can schedule a test drive and they will bring a vehicle to your home (or wherever you like) and give you a chance to see and drive one. And incidentally make the neighbors jealous. I don't know if they will be doing that any time soon again in Seattle. You can always go to the Bellevue service center if you want to see the colors in person (most of the colors, anyway), and if you're lucky someone will let you see the inside of one.

I got an invite for Salt Lake City First Mile today. As stated by @O. horridus , it’s less of an “event” and more just scheduling of personal test drives at your home.

so.. how did you get invited or request a test drive..? did you sign up somewhere, or contact CS?

 

[O. horridus]

Scroll up ... I saw this post then checked my Rivian account.

I believe I signed up on an interest list based on a mass communication from them several months ago.

Edit: There’s a link at the top of the main home page on Rivian.com to sign up.

 

[O. horridus]

Yes, I did that too, but never got an email.
