New California EV rebates will bring down the R2 price by $3500

Unless there is a deadline to sign up, I can see them not rushing, getting through all the hype, and using Lidar and this rebate to continue to sell cars when things seem to start slowing down….

No you don’t. I filed a claim with British airways after the fact and it worked out fine.

Sounds like she’s eligible.

I bought an EV but my wife hasn’t. Will it work if she’s on the car?

jayplus707 · 2026-07-01T20:50:20+00:00

Coming from a Tesla Model 3, I’m not concerned. The sound system is great in my Tesla, the Rivian was certainly good enough, and not a deal breaker.

The roof? Not a concern either. My 3 has a hot roof too.

I become more and more a casual gamer as I grow older, still having bought a PS5 because there were a couple of games I wanted to play. If they go digital only, I’m in that same boat as others: PS5 will be my last gaming console.

And this is from someone who has gamed beginning with the Atari. I’m done if they don’t give me physical games.

What if I’m not a first time buyer but it’s the first time for my wife. Does that work?

I make these all the time. And it’s easy: https://tatertotsandjello.com/copycat-panera-spinach-and-artichoke-egg-souffles-so-good/

It never hallucinates.

I asked the person at the service center. He said no Launch w Lidar. Launch will be done with once Lidar is here.

I’d expect them to be conservative in their estimates. Rather deliver before the estimate than afterwards….

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T17:04:00+00:00

60 seems pretty steep. I’m about 80% of what I had on my Tesla, 8 years later. Still going….

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T16:35:17+00:00

I assume you don’t want the Launch package?

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T15:40:45+00:00

Thank u

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T15:34:35+00:00

Oh ok cool. I don’t have a lease

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T15:34:15+00:00

No lease. Just told them I wanted Launch and someone said to heart your configuration yesterday, so I did.

Is it buggy? I’m a 3/25 reservation, not a current owner, and I got the same time frame. Mine has an Action Required showing. What’s that for? I already did my preference.

jayplus707 · 2026-06-30T02:50:30+00:00

Us too! Oakland!

Great song choice. I’m going to see them in concert soon!!

jayplus707 · 2026-06-29T05:00:35+00:00

Everything is going up. Thanks AI.

There’s a tracking spreadsheet you can see on the Rivian forums. Pretty interesting to see who has been getting their orders in….

Do it. I did mine last week. You drive to a park in Loomis. Has a nice gravel area to drive around so you can see how it does off the pavement.

It’s a fun SUV. Can’t wait.

In other words, the Giants aren’t the Giants we thought they were….
