From the Georgia Capitol building yesterday...
Trying to get HB460 passed so Rivian (and other electric vehicle manufacturers) can sell directly to consumer. Tesla is the only manufacturer allowed to in GA, currently.

I sent a note asking for support of this bill to my state representative. The more we can help Rivian, the sooner we will have a retail presence in Georgia.

That's a great configuration. Torn between the Forest Green and Rivian Blue w/ the 20's.

Looks like that's the Forest Edge interior?

Are those the 20"s with the AT tires?

The audio was tough to hear, but sounds like when they were talking about the backup camera, he also said it would have a birds eye view.

There was a lot of good info in that little clip.

All I could think about is "why is this dude not wearing a mask?!". Smh.

unfortunately, the Rivian guy wasn't mic'd up and external mics couldn't pick up thru his mask very well. Good stuff nonetheless.

Video confirms what we’d expected. The buttons on truck bed above the gear tunnel do release the tunnel doors.
Disappointing to see it appears to be a two-hand operation if you don’t want the door to just flop down (based on him apparently using left hand to cushion drop of door while pressing release with right). A soft release would’ve been nicer.

And of course, we also see that button near tailgate does release the tailgate.

Seems odd to me too. Maybe doors are locked, but key fob or phone proximity could allow frunk & gear tunnel access?
