Tacoma Vs. Rivian

Or no spare at all.

 

Fix-a-flat is a spare c/d

 

Yes. What’s “c/d”?

 

Quoted late 2023 but won’t be surprised if 2024

 

thats a long ass wait for a car

 

Pretty stupid too.

 

Two years out???

 

You’ll love that I’m expecting mine the first half of next year and I ordered it January 2019.

 

Just prepared for the worst

Ohhhkayyyy big guy

 

When was the original delivery date when you placed the order?

 

When they launched the R1T in November of 2018 they were saying “late 2020”. The same time frame when I ordered a couple months later. I think it was late in 2020 they confirmed that the 135kWh battery pack versions would be shipping first with the 180kWh 6-12 months after that.

 

couldnt hold out and bought a tacoma when you were expected to get a rivian?

 

Tell me about it, but no other cars pique my interest besides the new Sequoia. Even then when it hit the dealer lots late this year it’s gonna have $5-10K in mark ups or either useless dealer add ons. Kinda like the GX460 but that shit is running on its 13th model year (been out since 2010).

 

Summer 2020 it was pretty clear that there wasn’t going to be anything soon so I bought a Tacoma so I had a truck, figuring that I could also determine how much I need a truck in my life and if I even needed to wait for the Rivian.

 

That’s just silly. I would never wait that long for anything and certainly never put money down. Why give the company a loan? By the time you actually get the truck there will be something better coming to the market.

 

Will there?

 

Salt water and electric motors. Good combo.

 

Who knows? It’s two fricken years out.

 

Early next year is 2 years out? Someone sold you some bunk calendars. That’s less than a year away.

 

If there is something “better” from another manufacturer it will most likely be built in limited quantities, sold at a premium price, and the production for the first year will be sold out in minutes.
