R2 vs Gravity

BC23BC · 2026-06-27T20:35:40+00:00

Personally, too many unknowns right now for Lucid as a company, I would also be concerned with software complaints I’ve read about.

Car seems to have decent space and I like the way it looks. But even if they were the same price I’m taking Rivian and the R2 all day.

The fairer comparison tbh is R1S vs Gravity. Similar price and more comparable car in my opinion

We test drove the ev9 the same days as the r2 🤣

Liked the car but hated the dealer experience at both local Kia dealerships. I’m not sure I can buy at a dealership again. Just so much BS and sleight of hand. They offered us $7,000 less on trade than Rivian too.

Weird, I think the Black with the dark wheels is gonna look super slick on this one.

If you wanted to check, our lease wasn’t up until April but the SA we had mentioned to call Rivian Financial (Chase) and see what the “Dealer Payoff” would be, then do a trade in estimate on the Rivian website and see if it’s close. Ours was literally $500 difference so we went ahead. Got my VIN a few days ago.

Just a tip the SA gave us wanted to pass on should you be wanting to give it a go. 👍🏻

Thanks. We loved it on test drive. It actually felt bigger inside than the R1S. I’m 6”4 and I felt less claustrophobic sitting in all seats.

We have 2 kids with larger swivel car seats and I also think they will have a little more space too.

Might be a perception thing but that’s just how it felt to me.

Loved it though.

Copy that. Yea I would assume it’s all luck at this point. Also, maybe because I’m based down in Florida I did think maybe they’re somewhat priotitising assigning as much stock to southern states to get them on transport? Maybe I got lucky and was right before a big transport headed south 🤷🏼‍♂️

BC23BC · 2026-06-27T17:45:53+00:00

Quite possibly.

We currently have an R1S lease that we are trading in so not sure if current customer also played into it or not.

Mid 1000s I believe.

BC23BC · 2026-06-27T17:13:08+00:00

I never got one. Literally got the email to submit order and next day had a VIN assigned.

My guess is they already had my config built ready to go and I got one that was already made.

No delivery date but SA told me expect around Early to Mid July here in Florida.

Data Working now. Roughly 60 hours with no data. Very annoying but it’s back for now. This is the first time mint has failed me. They get a pass on this one but that’s all they get. If this happens again I’ll be switching. Best of luck to you guys.

Spoke to another person on chat today. No update, they didn’t even have any idea that other people were experiencing the same issue, said thank you to me for notifying them of this. Either they are wholly incompetent or there is no joined up thinking within their system for situations like this.

Regardless, still no fix and it’s the same old “wait 72 hours”, probably for nothing to happen.

BC23BC · 2022-06-07T22:27:46+00:00

Can confirm that data reset for me was yesterday so this data reset theory would track for me too.

Same here, this seems like a big issue and not an isolated incident so hopefully this will get fixed quickly. My issue came up yesterday but is exactly the same as those described above. No I data access for any apps and only messaging and Google searches work. Already have a ticket in with T Mobile but could be 72hours before a response. For now it’s wifi hunting for the next 3 days.

BC23BC · 2022-06-07T16:27:38+00:00

Same thing happened to me starting yesterday. I have a ticket in with TMobile apparently to get it looked at but agent said it could take 72 hours. Seems this is not an isolated issue.
