@Hilbe No, I loved my time with Rivian, and it was fun meeting you in Detroit, but I am back to Fan status and no longer an employee. It is time for the next adventure.
For those of you wearing tinfoil hats with me, Rivian initially said back in December that starting on February 1st, 2026 owners would receive Autonomy+ trials of 60 days. This worked out to April 3rd as the start date of Autonomy+ paid subscriptions. They later deleted that line of text which started my conspiracy theory for specific launch dates of R2.
Autonomy+ paid subscriptions now begin on April 4th and the R2 tour starts on April 3rd. R2 launch was long supposed to be "First Half of 2026" where April 1st was the center of that bullseye. Now the R1 Gen 2 Quads at the front of the Rivian plant are gone, what does that mean? Multiple Rivian/R2 data points appear to converge this week.
I have been building a case that end of March or beginning of April is the launch of R2 for over a year now. I thought that the R2 configurator would come ~2 months before R2 launch so January. I was wrong on that, so take this with a grain of salt.
@Hilbe What Rivian really needs to do is create an anti-gravity field that will levitate the trailer to prevent any range loss. That is the only way people will be happy.😃
Most by important feature Rivian should add when we get eyes off is Karaoke Mode. This would make family road trips incredible. Please spread the word to help make it happen.
