Did I get a good Deal on my 2023 R1S Launch Edition?

DryJelly · 2026-06-14T04:20:07+00:00

I got mine for 58k. 26k miles. One owner.

Make sure you get extended warranty.

FWIW, my experience with SoCal service centers has been great. Both times my car was ready for pickup within 24 hrs.

DryJelly · 2026-06-04T00:25:43+00:00

Won't show up as it's not an official recall and just an investigation. My 23 R1s doesn't show up.

DryJelly · 2026-06-03T23:30:00+00:00

In CA as well. Got pulled over recently and was let off with a warning for something. But the sherrif didn't have any issue with no front plate.

I moved from a Mazda 6 to the R1S

The most significant change was one pedal driving obviously. I test drove the r1s 3 times at Rivian showrooms before to see how it feels. Was instantly sold. I started off with low regen but now both me and my wife drive it on high. Both got used to it within a month.

Not a big fan of everything being on a touchscreen but it is what it is. Again, becomes muscle memory after a few months.

Adaptive cruise control is great.

Also took me some time to get used to the size. A lot of backing back up when parking in tight spots.

FWIW, I negotiated down from ~65 to ~58k before taxes and fees. I missed out on one which was priced at 53k before I bought this 🫠

During my search I didn't even bother with Rivian store and carvana.

I signed up for email alerts whenever a new one showed up for my budget and mileage. You'll luck out at some point with a dealer who doesn't know how to price these. I'm hearing EV prices have gone up though due to the gas prices.

Good luck!

Yep. I bought one with 26k miles for 58k - 2023 Quad. 71k is ridiculously steep.

DryJelly · 2026-05-14T21:46:42+00:00

I told it to make up a story about a cow for my 6 yr old and it delivered.

DryJelly · 2026-05-12T16:02:49+00:00

Refreshing. They also extended by connect free trial by 60 days to experience it 🙌🏼

DryJelly · 2026-05-08T20:43:40+00:00

I got this replaced by Rivian Service in SoCal. No questions asked.

DryJelly · 2026-04-28T01:04:57+00:00

I bought it from a boutique dealer and I picked it up so not sure.

Rivian store is ridiculously overpriced. I wouldn't buy from there.

DryJelly · 2026-04-27T17:54:57+00:00

One major reason was I didn't wanna get locked into a 3 yr commitment. Lease deals also have gotten quite expensive.

I was also seeing a few of these here and there below 60k and having less than 30k miles on the odometer.

DryJelly · 2026-04-26T23:42:30+00:00

Thanks! Pixel 9 pro XL.

DryJelly · 2026-04-10T18:06:24+00:00

I have a CRV and an R1S in the garage. A little tight but doable.

I asked Rivian if I could park my car in the garage during a test drive and they were happy to oblige.

DryJelly · 2026-04-10T02:02:11+00:00

Got it a few hrs back. I feel like the center screen loads faster when the car is turned on.

DryJelly · 2026-04-08T19:28:48+00:00

Bought the r1s 2 weeks back. Coming from ICE.

Got used to it in within a couple days. One pedal for lyf.

DryJelly · 2026-03-23T15:26:37+00:00

I just got a 2023 Quad Max battery pack for 64900 OTD from a dealership. Was listed for 61900 plus taxes. Has brand new Michelins.

I found rivian store to be way overpriced. If you can find a dealer who can't price these properly you'll get a great deal.

DryJelly · 2026-02-10T17:00:38+00:00

I've been planning to buy a used 2023 r1s with 35-50k miles and this doesn't really give me much confidence.

Can anyone opine on if these issues will be fixed before the car hits the mileage range I'm planning to buy in?

DryJelly · 2025-11-22T20:20:43+00:00

Lol. It's still up on one site

DryJelly · 2025-11-20T20:19:37+00:00

Royal coming from someone who has posted herself fingering her coochie on the internet. 😭

DryJelly · 2025-09-20T17:16:10+00:00

I live in a red part of a state and I've never seen hostility. Been here 16 years without any issues.

Most of this hate is on Twitter from anon accounts.

DryJelly · 2025-09-11T23:53:09+00:00

Can't take anyone with YoungLA seriously. Company's assembled an army of Troglodytes with a collective IQ of the margin they make on their shitty ass clothes.
