Sorry, but First Drive events in California are not news.

Now if there was a First Drive in Philadelphia, that would be news . . .

All depends on perspective... and maybe address! I would say it is news for me at least ;)

Agree with O on this one, any R1s content is news, and first drives are absolutely news. Why is that guy so out of breath though?

He always is.

Smores are super important. So easy to impress journalists with free food (former journalist)

First drive of an S is big news! It’s even better than a professional review because we will hopefully get 100% honest feedback on the forums and be able to ask questions.

This is a journalist/podcast group review. Similar to the one they did in Colorado for the R1T. This is not a first drive event for reservation holders.

There's a bunch of photos coming out from this media event. TFL says that an off-road video is coming in about 10 days. So maybe that's when the embargo lifts?

I appreciate anyone taking the time to share information about Rivian. A lot of us are buying these cars sight-unseen and any and all information is helpful. Over time, some might get repetitive. For example, the raging debate about the "torch." However, I'll take redundancy over silence all day. Thanks for sharing-keep it coming!

I like that it can be dressed up with the 22" bright wheels and white paint and look elegant, or outfitted with the 20 AT's in green and look rugged. Good job, Rivian.
