Rivian R2 Block Party Lands in Palo Alto: Hands-On Soon + Tesla Accessory Must-Haves
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're as hyped about the Rivian R2 as I am, I've got some exciting last-minute news that's going to make your day. Rivian just added a new stop to their delivery schedule, and it's right in the heart of the Bay Area—Palo Alto! This is perfect for all you California EV fans out there.
Palo Alto Joins the R2 Block Party Lineup
Shoutout to Jose for spotting this gem. Palo Alto is now officially on the schedule for May 15th to 17th—the same weekend as the Miami, Florida event. That means even more R2s are hitting the roads soon, and these could very well be production-line vehicles making their public debut.
Head over to the Rivian Block Party 2 R2 website (link in the description if you're watching the video) to RSVP and get all the details. The main schedule might not highlight it right away, so scroll to the bottom—that's where you'll find the Palo Alto listing:
- Dates: May 15-17
- Time: 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
If you've been to one of these events (like I did in Venice), you know they're next-level. They had five R2s on site, two of which you could actually climb into and check out up close. Plus, there was coffee, ice cream, and a super chill vibe. Massive props to Rivian for putting on these events—they're the best way to experience the R2 before deliveries ramp up.
Mark your calendars if you're nearby. It's just a month away! Drop a comment below: Do you have an R2 on order? How excited are you?
Tesla Owners: Level Up with These Must-Have Accessories from Jowua
Now, shifting gears—if you've just snagged a Tesla (or you're about to), congrats! But here's the kicker: it comes with zero accessories. Not even a phone mount. No worries, though—our partner Jowua has you covered with the essentials every Tesla owner needs.
Here are my top picks (and yes, I use them all):
- Phone Mount: Keeps your phone secure during those neck-snapping accelerations.
- Center Console Organizer: Say goodbye to losing keys, coins, and mystery items in the abyss.
- Invisible Underscreen Station Mount (my newest fave): Perfect spot for sunglasses or small essentials.
But Jowua goes beyond the basics:
- Wireless game controller that tucks neatly in the glovebox.
- Portable air compressor for road trip peace of mind.
- Even an electric scooter—because who wants to walk from the Supercharger?
