Nope, function over form for me. If I need to eat while getting from point A to point B or while charging in a Walmart parking lot, I have no problems doing that.

If my launch sprays Starbucks all over the back window, still good.

I found that not breeding prevented 99.5% of all food spillage across my entire vehicle fleet. :)

YMMV

But, more seriously I do eat/drink in the Rivian. It's an adventure vehicle and I'd prefer to eat inside the vehicle while its raining then on the tail-gate.

I used these on my Telluride, took them off when I sold it at the height of used car prices!! Just got my R1S today, seems like a good idea to put them on! Thanks for the reminder!!!

Congrats on your R1S! Yes..I have had my R1T for about a month now and I think I may put something there to prevent any items from falling in the "black hole".

Don’t worry - the rats will get it later.

One of the greatest side effects of owning an EV (for me) - food stops only happen when we charge. You wanna eat - great - but you’re waiting until we need electrons.

I’ve had way too many stray french fries in my other cars. This is a good habit to be forcefully broken.

Side note: don’t let your kids apply sunscreen in the car. My son had an incident and dropped some, and the passenger door trim looked like a crime scene in vegas. I never open that door, so I didn’t know how bad it was for 2 weeks …
"It was sunscreen, dad!"

As a general rule, I'd keep the black light out of the back seat of any car... I'd rather not know.

These are all reasons not to buy a used car. ;) Buyer beware!

Always amazes me how I survived my childhood without eating or drinking in the car for hours at a time. My wife now needs a three course meal during her 12 minute commute to work.
