Well...the S2000 needed more doors, more driven wheels, and a lot more torque...

First real pics of the "white" Rivian interior are coming out and I really don't like it. Looks like the wood is almost yellow/pink looking and not the bleached asswood that everyone was looking for. Also the seats aren't white, they are a dirty gray look. I'm probably going to switch my config to the black and play it safe. The green interior actually looks outstanding in real life but I don't think a green on green color scheme would look great and it's also a $2500 up charge.

on the white. The seat color doesn't look bad, but the rest, not great.
Really like that green interior, but black is a safe bet.

That "white" interior looks terrible. Green is my favorite but it only really goes with two or three colors.

Me too, unfortunately not something they offer...
Also you can't mix and match wood with upholstery which sucks. I'd swap out the bleached ass wood to the one in the green interior. Even black with that brown wood would look cool.

Tesla took years to turn a profit too. I'm not worried about at this time.

That's about right. Launch Editions were going for $125-140k used.

Not turning a profit because you can't make enough of something to offset expenses is one thing. Not turning a profit because you can't sell your products on the shelf is a whole different thing. The demand for Rivians is huge, that's the thing keeping the show going. No way they were going to be profitable out the gate.

Where there's demand, there's people selling for big money.

Well when there are people willing to trade a huge sum of money to cut a VERY long line...then cool, let them have at it. The markups have certainly come down by a good amount but, if you want a R1T RIGHT NOW, then you're looking at a $110k truck at least. Most of the time they're going in the $120k range. Great profit for those who bought them for $75k.

Standard short term capital gains would apply in most scenarios.
To calculate a capital gain on a used car, find its original price and subtract the sales tax and any additional taxes you paid. Next, add any long-term vehicle improvements you made after the purchase. Finally, subtract that total from the price you sold the vehicle for.

Short-term capital gains come from assets held for under a year. Based on filing status and taxable income, long-term capital gains for tax years 2021 and 2022 will be taxed at 0%, 15% and 20%. Short-term gains are taxed as ordinary income.
Looks like they will add it to income. That is not cool. Guess it's a problem I'd not mind having.

Thought about the interior dilemma some more while running 7 miles through a forest at 3am on Friday night/Saturday morning and decided to swap to black. Just updated the config online to make it official.
Who knows, maybe this will bring my delivery date up?

Running, 3am, 7 miles. Does not compute

Didn't seem that tight when I looked at one at the grocery store. Seemed a bit larger than a crew cab Tacoma.

Looks pretty comfortable to me
It's pretty similar to the Tacoma in head room and shoulder room but more leg room (beats it by 4").

Ragnar race. I do it with friends every year. Seems like a terrible idea (and it is) but it's a lot of fun and a nice challenge.
Daddy Doug is pretty big and he fits just fine.
Tight in the back of a Silverado??? My in laws have a Silverado crew cab and have two car seats back there for carrying grand kids...there's a fuckload of space back there, way more than almost any car around.

No problem with a rear facing carseat in a 2012 Suburban, and it's not the roomiest (door-opening wise), better once you're inside it.
Looking at the above images, I'd think most carseats should be fine in the R1(T & S).
Even my Malibu fits our bulky rear-facer without needing much driver seat adjustment (forward just a hair).

You must be short torso, long legs.
I"m 6'0" & have pretty much no problem, with our (Graco, I think) carseat in the Flex, might just barely touch the headrest.
