The Rivian SUV looks pretty sweet and would be a legit SUV. Pricey and need to get the charging network though.

Has anyone been in or around a Rivian R1S? Are they much bigger than the model Y? They sure look a lot bigger.
Even if Rivian eventually sells a $55K vehicle it could take five years to work the bugs out and have a reasonable charging network.
Super charging and Teslas infrastructure is a game changer.
Rivian won't be able to keep up
Mud puddle to cars in a little more than that amount of time, and Rivian has an existing factory that they have been upgrading for some time.
They have the backing of Ford and Amazon. Why do you think they will fail?
They've driven two of them from Tierra Del Fuego to Los Angeles. Also one in Canada. I think that is fairly extensive.Totally different situation and environment and company experience.
This is Rivian's first vehicle, you'd think they'd be doing extensive testing in the wild before building the machine that builds the machine. You only start building out the production line once you've put pencils down on the design and testing.

Although it hasn’t been announced yet, I would assume servicing would be available at Ford dealerships.
Yeah I know just like 1 yr ago there were so many in the wild sightings of the Y....There hasn't been any Rivian sightings in the wild. All the YouTube videos of Rivian cars are in controlled or promotional environments. How are they going into production without testing in the wild?

Exactly why I canceled my R1T order. I really wanted the pickup but after thinking about service I decided to cancel my order and I put a deposit on a Cyber Truck. My only issue is I have the patience of a 5 year old so When the Rivian comes to market 1 year sooner than Cyber I may change my mind.Service is a big deal. I work about 10 minutes from a Tesla service center. I have never even heard if any Rivian service center / show rooms / dealers exist. Has anyone seen one yet?
