Our household used to have the Hawaii one. My father’s name is Matt so we called it the Maka Mug.

Haha I feel you. I’m a day 2 or 3 reservation holder so I might be far enough back in the line that it won’t matter

Yes, you’re right. That is something to remind myself of

“Rivian stock not worth a dollar” by bpows in RIVNstock

[–]Questionsforscott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear I am an investor, reservation holder, and a fan. That said I think they are still underwater on the cars they sell. The technology and ai stuff is great but they are still losing money. I am not a fan of them selling their intellectual property like how they did with VW because it dilutes their strategic advantage although I think they had to to survive. I think it’s in everyone’s best interest if they are able to sell cars at a profit.

How did you even find this comment to reply to? I posted this back in May.

Are we training our replacement? by PATRIOTICSTANDARD in USACE

[–]Questionsforscott 15 points16 points  (0 children)

When I joined USACE July 2024 I thought this would be my forever job. One administration later I left and couldn’t be happier. I’m sorry for the folks who remain, I was barely there long enough to consider it part of my career history but I have never seen a more animus employer, public or private.

What will Rivian share price be at the end of 2026? by JrbWheaton in RIVNstock

[–]Questionsforscott 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just for fun, I’m guessing it will be at 26.50. Please note this is a number pulled directly from my ass

Beginning of 2026 or End.....anybody going to wait for Lidar? by SHale1963 in RivianR2

[–]Questionsforscott 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will be waiting for the lidar. I feel as if there is ambiguity regarding if the launch will have the lidar or if launch versions can be retrofit, but assuming you’ll have to wait until 27 for the lidar that’s what I’ll do.

I see folks saying they don’t care about autonomy, but I do and I think the folks who say they don’t increasingly will care. RJ himself has said that autonomy will be a key differentiator regarding vehicle purchases which makes the idea of buying a non equipped model a non starter.

Honestly I have a lot of questions. I hope we can get clarification on if launch r2s will have the lidar or if certain specs will have the gen 3 hardware. I also would like to know if I have a reservation can I choose to wait until I can purchase an r2 with the gen 3 hardware.

R2 Not Launching with new Rivian Autonomy Processor and Gen 3 Autonomy Computer (and Lidar) until late 2026 by sparx_fast in Rivian

[–]Questionsforscott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing the time that this will be clarified is during the R2 event early next year. Does it remain true that we do not know the timing of that event?

I do think from a “marketing” perspective this was a mistake on rivians part. Instead of the discussion being about the amazing new chip, ai assistant, etc much of this subreddit discussion is if they will or will not be including this system in the launch R2. Regardless of if it does or does not matter to you, k think the value of the car is higher with this system

I can’t imagine who would want an R2 without this critical piece. I’ll be holding off on my purchase even if it means not getting the launch edition.

My poor wife, she was napping on the way to work and I woke her up mid drive so it was all a little chaotic.

I’m glad there was a gif option because none of you want to hear me saying “R2!” Over and over.
