Hello Rivian peeps! Glad to be here! #Rivian
At a California auto auction, 51 vehicles ran through Rivian’s lane, 46 of them were Teslas.

Interesting data point. Definitely suggests many Tesla owners are moving to Rivian, at least anecdotally.

Did you catch the Rivian R1T and R1S helping transport Blue Origin’s all female crew yesterday? It’s great seeing Rivian front and center at events like these and it's not the first time Blue Origin has used Rivians to transport Blue Origins teams to the New Shepard Rocket.

Looks like Rivian is teasing something sandy?

What’s coming on February 19th? I’m thinking a new color or wheels maybe? Thoughts?

Rivian's newest 'space' in San Francisco will double as a service center—the first of its kind, featuring two floors with a ramp! Should Rivian combine more spaces and service centers, or keep them separate?

Rivian has a site where you can buy inventory used in Rivian's spaces and demo drives. Some vehicles have as low as 100 miles, mostly from showroom displays, while others have thousands of miles from demo drives, still covered by Rivian's warranty.

Good place to look if you want to buy a Rivian! :)

Rivian has received approval to "sell" vehicles at their Downtown Laguna Beach theater location, where guides can now assist with online vehicle orders, which was previously not possible.

On the contrary, Rivian ranks last in reliability. This isn’t due to vehicle breakdowns or battery/motor issues, but rather build quality concerns like squeaks, misaligned panels, and paint chips, resulting in more service center visits.

Rivian owners, do you agree? Let me know your thoughts!

For the second year in a row, Rivian has topped Consumer Reports' owner satisfaction survey! Rivian owners gave the highest scores for comfort, ease of use, and ownership costs. Scoring 86% on the “would buy again” question, beating brands like Tesla, BMW, and Porsche! Do you agree?

Big news for Rivian! The U.S. Department of Energy has conditionally committed up to $6.6 billion in loans to support Rivian’s new Georgia plant.

This essentially allows Rivian to utilize this loan instead of burning through their existing cash to build the factory.
