    Out of the hundreds of Rivian videos I’ve watched, this was the best of all! Great job Tom (and Anthony!!)
    Great timing as we take delivery of our R1S in May! Very comprehensive and informative video! Keep up the amazing work Tom! ⚡️👏

    I had my First mile drive with Anthony! He is really good at keeping his promises. I needed the door measurements when they were open and he promised me that he will send those later. Exactly two hours later he texted me the measurements. Plus he made the demo drive fun. Keep up the good work, A!

    Anthony was my driver at Rivian’s NYC event last month and was fantastic. That’s not easy to do on camera and he was top notch! I hope to see you driving around in the R1S now as I’m only a few towns over. Can’t wait to see all your content and hopefully I’ll get mine soon to get my own going too.

    My favorite part: Tom "and here's my front license plate bracket that I'll mount myself."
    Suuuure you are Tom, and mess up that sweet front end. You're going to run that baby topless. I got away with it on a car down here in MD for 8 years. The county police never gave me a second glance.

    Tank you guys very detailed and explanatory review for all specs & features, btw i watch this review from Europe.. So my primary concern is this :
    will Rivian ever announce they expand the sells in EU too because both truck & suv are amazing products and we will love to see such vehicles available in here too !

    I would never sign the papers for a vehicle BEFORE doing the inspection. Who knows what you might find that would be reason to reject the vehicle entirely? An improperly painted body section, suspension or frame damage, etc. ? Once you sign you lose all you leverage. I assume at some point you actually looked underneath?

  • @jessearodriguez

  • @whatgas5056
    @whatgas5056 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Hey Tom, great video as always and congrats. Just one question, did you buy it by placing an order or you were giving the option of selecting it from Rivian shop with whatever is available? Again, awesome video

  • @budokai5904
    @budokai5904 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    My only complaint is that rivian no longer offers larger battery pack option on the R1S for early pre order's. To include the option we must forgo our discount.

  • @Yanquetino
    @Yanquetino ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Happy for you, Tom! GREAT EV! I really love the R1S, but… my wife and I certainly don't need a larger 7-seat vehicle; it would be more prudent for us to go for a smaller, more efficient hatchback. That Mach-E in your garage is tempting!

  • @NickR272
    @NickR272 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Interestingly the person that brought you the flash light was my delivery rep when I picked it up last weekend from Brooklyn. Also the LA silver R1S that she drove is what I’m using as a loaner at the moment 😂

      Clearly Rivian doesn't a delivery checklist for its employees, prior to bringing customers their vehicles. Yes, mistakes can happen but not if they are following a checklist.

  • @viplav76

  • @AnonymousFreakYT
    @AnonymousFreakYT ปีที่แล้ว +2

    2:45 - The method of delivery depends on how closer you are to one of their delivery-prep centers (which are generally at or at least near service centers.)
    I am close enough to a delivery/service center that when my R1T was delivered last August, they did indeed drive it to my house, then the person literally Ubered back to the delivery center.
    My sister-in-law is in the same "metro area", but across a state line, and apparently hers was delivered from the nearest delivery center in her own state, much further away. So hers did arrive via flatbed tow truck like yours. (Something about state registration/tax issues presumably requiring the delivery happen from within her own state.)

  • @Powner187
    @Powner187 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Going to look at them tomorrow. They have all the power you need. Going to see if the size is comparable to a yukon tahoe... interested in 3rd row seating with yukon size but not the 8cylinder mpg those big vehicles have. Electric can do both.

  • @MrTeslaX
    @MrTeslaX 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I am sorry your Tesla NACS bashing didn't age very well and now you guy really want to charge at those superchanrgers. I am long term Tesla owner and buying an R1S only cos I can charge it as SC. It's a shame other companies didn't put much effort on creating high speed and reliable charging stations.

  • @commanderroddi7742
    @commanderroddi7742 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    So, I guess by cLlong NACS they indeed make ot a standard. Even for future Rivians. Beautiful truck. Color combination I'd choose. Throw on my ikamper rooftop tent which while it'll block that mice glass toof I had 4 people on rhe tent and my elderly parents in the back.

  • @daryllu2093
    @daryllu2093 ปีที่แล้ว

    Re: conserve mode. Is there a speed limit that you can shift from conserve to all-purpose ("AP") (or other)?
    In the driving-to-Florida example, when coming off the highway, can we switch to AP at 60/50/40/n mph?

  • @rparikh6
    @rparikh6 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Anthony was outstanding. Your video was so so helpful. I got my car no the 31st. It was a very rushed delivery and we never got a detailed walk through. This was outstanding. How can I charge the car at home without a dedicated Rivian charger. I just have a Tesla wall charger. Also I noticed the Anthony has some dilated and prominent veins on the is right neck. I am a physician and just want to make sure that gets them checked. You never know.

  • @777Outrigger
    @777Outrigger 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A Rivian is a perfect truck for EA chargers. If you can't charge and you get stranded, you can just camp there. Of course, it might be a couple of months before EA gets around to fixing the charger.

  • @Ginotorrente
    @Ginotorrente 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Why did you only have 295 miles on 95% with the 21’ tires on quad Moter… I thought it would be 321 miles or at least 315 on 95% charge

  • @sawomirwachowski8189
    @sawomirwachowski8189 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Interesting. I didn't know they still do home deliveries. When picking up my R1S I wasn't offered home delivery. I had to drive 40 miles (about 1 hour one way because of traffic) to the park where they were doing deliveries.

    Super bummed just got the “you are in a dealership law state, so no delivery estimate” email. Preordered Apr 2021. 30 min from El Paso TX and 4 hours from Tucson AZ. But because I am in NM they don’t even want to give me a wild guess. Guess I will just keep my X and get a Cybertruck when I can get my hands on one

  • @highrafterranch1982
    @highrafterranch1982 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Awesome. Can’t believe I watched the whole delivery of a vehicle that I’m not getting. Tried to talk the wife into one but after a year of the Lightning ( mine) she said absolutely no way. Doesn’t like having to worry about lack of range and worrying about finding a charger. Another RR P530 for her.
    Distance is so relative to where you live. You complain that 60 miles to the Rivian service center is “so far”…. Our nearest Tesla service center is close to one hundred miles away both N and S and greater than 200 E and W… no clue where the nearest Rivian center is

  • @larryspiller15
    @larryspiller15 ปีที่แล้ว

    Lol 55mi is not inconvenient whatsoever. Your going to want to drive your new vehicle anyways. Home delivery is a nice option though. Thats what i did with my model 3 back in 2020, I was 300mi from the nearest center. Now just 150mi.

    • @StateOfChargeWithTomMoloughney
      @StateOfChargeWithTomMoloughney  ปีที่แล้ว

      The 55 miles isn't the problem. It's getting into and out of NYC either through the Holland Tunnel or over the Verrazzano Bridge. It's a hassle that can take 3 hours each way of there are any kind of traffic incidents.

    @adamschool7522 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Tom, don't tell everyone you're going to let him drive the instructions and introduction, only to interrupt him every couple seconds throwing in your two cents. Bringing an employee from Rivian to your house, to continually throughout the video let him know how much more you know about charging and this vehicle, seems completely ridiculous. If you brought him there just to have a fun discussion, call it that. Enjoy your content most of the time, this was a miss.

    • @adamschool7522
      @adamschool7522 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Jorg Jorgensen Well Jorg, I respect your different outlook. If you start at 1:50 - 2:15 in the video, go ahead and listen to how he explains what the purpose of the visit is. Then fast forward to 5:20 and proceed to watch the remaining video, starting with Tom telling Anthony how many keys he's going to receive and so forth. That is not acting as if "you're a new customer taking receipt of a new car". The rest of the video is him constantly telling him everything he knows. No argument, just a different way of viewing the content I suppose!

    This was my original configuration. I really liked the “reveal vehicle” and this was it (close as you could get). However, I changed my config to Launch Green and Black Mountain so I could get it sooner. Very glad I did, love that color. This is gorgeous though, can’t really go wrong with any color (except maybe canary yellow?…J/K).

  • @rjk2539
    @rjk2539 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Tom,
    I commented on your latest video re qmerit. I should have put that comment on this video. My experience so far with Rivian is not like yours and you definitely are being treated differently than regular people. I live within a few miles of you in NJ and rivian flat out refuses to do anything accept have me go to Brooklyn to pick up the car. I offered to meet anywhere in NJ not only at my house. I don’t have a trade so it’s a huge inconvenience for me to get into Brooklyn. Then they told me to figure it out within 7 days or loose the car! I’m fed up. Can we talk off line or private message. I don’t want to put specifics here out of respect for your channel and Rivian. Nice job with your channel and this video.

    @ronaldgarrison8478 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Rivian screen seems to have a largely monochrome motif, with even color parts fairly subdued. I don't know how complete that is, but in what I've seen, it's a refreshing change from some of the fruit salad I've seen on some other EVs (maybe even some recent ICE as well, but I wouldn't know about such things). Some things surely require major amounts of color, but I haven't noticed it yet on these trucks.
