Does it count if we spotted a Rivian on the Blue Origin broadcast this morning? Looked like one among the fleet of cars that drove out to pick up Captain Kirk and the other rocket-launched folks after they landed in the desert with a "thump!"
That definitely counts! Really great to see Rivian get a chance to show itself off on such a big stage.
I saw one in the wild on Hanover Street in Palo Alto this morning. It went by me before I could react and snap a photo.
I see one sometimes in the Stanford research park in Palo Alto as noted above. Recently on the ramp from 237 west to Highway 101 north was behind a transport truck carrying two.
Yesterday, a friend of mine spotted what is very likely the first in Tallahassee, Florida. Also in El Cap Gray, she liked the size and thought it was "cute."
...and I've now seen one in town here too. Though, it was white, so a different vehicle than the one I know is owned in the area. Spotted it at night in traffic. That light signature really stands out!
On 8/23/22 I saw a Rivian on Chincoteague Island, Virginia. This is a rural place. Chincoteague is nestled between the Chesapeake/Delmarva Peninsula and a barrier island. The Virginia part of the peninsula and the island are low density (~10ppl/sq mile) The barrier island is all national seashore or state preserve. Pop of the island is about 2,400 with a robust tourist industry though we were there well after the busy time. The Rivian startled me. Maybe they have not sold many, but they are well distributed. I did not notice the plates.
I've seen a flurry of them here in Phoenix. I was in Mesa yesterday, someone where I worked bought one, it was parked in the lot, as I was leaving another passed by on the way out of the industrial park on the way home. While driving the interstate I was passed by two more, and I caught yet another in Tempe after climbing off the interstate. It was kind of spooky, but good to see, I think it is a much prettier truck than the Cyber-thingy, I hope they continue to make headway.
