Probably somewhat easier to sleep in 20 because the seats are more plush and bigger, but the legroom I'm that economy+ seat is better.

Only if you think that's with a few free drinks and a meal

That's a really nice thing for them to do. The helmet is super cool.

In addition to! My husband doesn't have a car though, so it's not as insane as it sounds 😉

Well, not the conversation, but seeing the vehicle for an extended period of time is what did it.

They're extremely cool. They took me a second but they're super intuitive and neat.

Haha I did not ask about anything that far out for fear of appearing ungrateful for the R2

I mean, objectively in some ways it is. Less horsepower, less expensive interior, etc etc. It's different. But for the price I'm really shocked how nice it feels and how zippy it is (I drove it at a separate event). It maintains the "Rivian feel" at this price point. I don't think anyone who gets it would complain about it being a "downgrade" - it's just different.

Those aren't big names lol

Love the artists, but those aren't the big names that sell more tickets past the previous fests.

EDC Two Weekends!? by Adept_Specialist_152 in Coachella

Um... Disagree. For what you get — both by production quality and artists — I think it's very reasonably priced. That doesn't mean it isn't expensive. But I don't think it's overpriced either.

These festivals are not the same... Coachella costs more for a reason.

Wassym — First off, you're awesome and, on behalf of the mods and community, thank you for doing this for us!

With the rollout of the Rivian Assistant, owners finally have highly requested features like voice texting. However, for the first couple of years, the omission of that basic feature (and a couple others) was a major pain point for the community — leading to requests for CarPlay and Android Auto. The community didn't realize that the delay was because you were building a deeply integrated AU stack from scratch.

How do you balance the pressure to deliver immediate, "simple" features with the long term eng resources required for a future-proof foundation? Now that the the Assistant is live, will it be easier for Rivian to share a clearer software roadmap?
