I spoke with a Customer Support Chat person and they recommended the following if you want to better your chances to be selected for a first mile mobile drive.

I would make sure you are signed up for this newsletter because they reach out to preorder holders that are signed up to receive info on Drive opportunities.

This is quite possibly the dumbest way to get in front of preorder holders. They have the list. They know when you put your preorder in. They know your configuration. They know your delivery window. They know where you live. Feels like Rivian is getting an eyeroll from me on a weekly basis at this point.
 
Anyone here take delivery and drive through the North Potomac area? My wife spotted you the other day and a neighbor sent me a pic today. I still haven't seen one in real life! DM me if you'd let me check out your truck.
 
wouldn't you know it... i tested + for covid shortly after wife scheduled our drive. she is negative so will participate today. i'll have to watch from afar.... and cry.
I put my own pre-order in. So Feb/2020 R1S for my wife and April 2022 R1T for me. I was able to schedule my own first drive already. So pumped given I missed the one scheduled for my wife.
