Very very minor damage to wood and metal dash trim. Any straightforward coverup?
Doesn’t bother me that much. Posting mainly to show you the guilty party…🐕🦺
N.B. he is very behaved and always harnessed. The scratches are from when my daughter was goofing off with him
Very quick review..drives just like our R1, but better. Just that much lighter, just that much tighter...
The interior is just fine; rear seat leg room is ample. Manual frunk closure. Slightly noticeable step down in the quality of the interior components (the drive/wiper stalks), but absolutely acceptable in this class of car IMO. Again I'm comparing to our R1S Quad..
Not the best side by side for size comparison..
I can't wait
We've all read the email...
"June 9 is the day. Order invitations start going out, demo drives begin and the first R2 vehicles start arriving in driveways across America."
I live near a Service Center. It is not a Rivian "Service + Demo" whatever those are, but my SC does do deliveries and test drives. I also live near a Rivian Space. It's in a mall, and you can schedule test drives there as well.
There have been some images of R2's sitting in SC's already (although these are probably getting prepped for delivery). Do you think we'll be able to test drive them as early 6/9?
I'm assuming at the very least, the Rivian Space in my local mall will have one on display 6/9...
Suppose someone has a day one reservation, and is an OG R1 owner, and lives 6 miles from a demo center, and 15 miles from a service center…
Assuming this person gets an invite to order on June 9, and assuming Rivian’s 2-6 week window is accurate, this someone is hoping to go camping with their new R2 July 4th weekend!
This is realistic, right??
For solo car campers or couples, the R1S is hard to beat. Leveling is key. Running climate during the night. Listening to podcasts while looking up at the stars. My kids no longer have any desire to camp with Dad, and TBH, it was so comfortable..
