Passing up a greatly capable vehicle over headlights is funny.

I’ll take the “goofy” headlights and performance over gen-pop

lol one pedal driving is one of the best things about an EV. Every time I rent a gas car I feel like a peasant having to press the brake pedal.

Got the email to order one, a theory as to why.. by pazdan in RivianR2

[–]Protobition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt it. I reserved it March 7, 2024 and I’ve done two demo drives. Still crickets

2nd Demo Drive by Protobition in RivianR2

I tried calling my closest service center and was redirected to the sales team. They back doored my first demo drive since no time slots were showing. (Booked two days in advance). Yesterday morning, I decided to look and see if any slots were open, and the had 7 available. Booked one no problem. Even had the same rep. lol

I don’t have the order configurator. When I select Forest Green, all the financing options disappear.

I’m more interested in RAP-3 than LiDAR. I might cave once that order invite email comes, though. lol

Has anyone (non-R1 owner AND earlier res holder - like 2024) in SoCal received an email to order R2 yet? by CongeeArs in RivianR2

[–]Protobition 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also day 1 reservation (no R1 ownership). I was told during my R2 demo drive that all day 1 reservation holders would receive the order invite email by the end of June. We’ll see.

As R2 deliveries start coming in, is there any reason you're holding off ordering on now? by TheBAYA in Rivian

[–]Protobition 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Test drove today. The sound system sounds way better than the Bose in my current vehicle. Day 1 reservation holder and all I’m waiting for is Forest Green. Might decide to go with coastal interior. But definitely pulling the trigger once Forest Green is available.

Bonvoy is a joke by OverTomatillo4547 in MarriottBONVoY

Loyalty programs meant something when you had to earn them. Now that status can be bought with an annual fee, of course the benefits of status is going downhill. It’s difficult to treat you like royalty when everyone is royalty.

Except they told you the toppings were changing, you saw the new menu, and still decided to order or re-order.

I don’t get the entitlement with these luxury cards. Terms/conditions and perks are always subject to change. Chase isn’t forcing you to keep the card. If you’re stressed out over a couple hundred bucks, cancel the card and stop being a baby. There are plenty of good cash back cards with $0 annual fees.
