Should I double up and place ANOTHER pre-order?

I'm with you. When I reserved, I told the wife 2028.
Same, I do have a little hope we will see them getting produced in 27’ with a 28’ model year. But most likely its not gonna happen, since tooling a factory can take 8-12 months after the building is made.

Not to mention all the government certifications needed.

That too. I kinda forgot about all the inspections, building codes, certifications, hiring factory works, also waiting for the VW gigafactory in Canada to be built which will most Likely be the battery supply.

How do you like the Fords? I’ve always been interested in both and test drove the Mach E.
Love both Ford Lightning and Mach E.

Both are problem free and not a single issue (except recently for my Mach E needing a TSB).

I'd buy another Ford but they shelved the SUV idea recently.

Looking forward to the Scout !!!

I couldn’t find any info on the R2 when I went to Rivian’s site other than a few photos.
There's limited (specs) info on the Rivian site probably since it's still over a year away from launch. You can find a lot more details in the reveal from Spring 2024 here:

My current Ford has been the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. I’ve owned Honda, BMW, Subaru and others. I’ve always traded them in after 4 years. The Mach E is still on my radar and will be something I’ll check out again as we get closer. The Lightning was of interest but it’s just too big for me. What kind of range are you seeing from the Lightning?
