Perfect Rivian R1T delivery experience. First EV. First new car ever. Picked up from South San Fran after 2 years of research! Ask me Anything!
I had put down a reservation for an R1T in 2022 and decided I did not want to take delivery when it was ready in 2023 due to a number of factors (some of which unrelated to the Rivian iteself) . When the Gen2 came out, i started researching all of the upgrades and reviews and so stoked on how much they had improved an already stellar product.
This was the first new car i would ever be purchasing in my life (all used cars before) and the first EV i would ever own so i wanted to make sure i knew exactly what i was getting myself into. That's where you all came in! This reditt community has helped so much with all of my questions and i finally pulled the trigger in Jnauary.
I would love to repay that by sharing whatever learning i can with this group because i have a ton of info i have gathered as part of the process.
Here are the details of my R1T:
- Model: Dual-motor R1T w/ Performance Upgrade
- Batter size: Max with 410 miles of advertised range
- Wheels: 22' Sport Bright
- Trim: Adventure
- Exterior color: El Cap Granite
- Interior color: Black Mountain + Dark Ash Wood
- Order date: Jan 5, 2025
- Pickup date: Feb 6, 2025
Finally, if anyone is looking to pull the trigger and looking for code, happy to share mine and share the love! Just let me know!
Love this community!
