Wow he does not know how to make coffee from beans ?
TBH he was probably very nervous on camera with someone handing him things and not wanting to ask for the right equipment etc. Ill give benefit of the doubt to the Culinary lead for Rivian.

Well, coming out of this week I've learned the following things:
1. The media likes the truck.
2. There seems to be some bugs to work out that aren't just software. Hopefully they are dealt with pretty quickly in the production process. Definitely a little anxious about the durability of the tonneau cover.
3. I've discovered and subscribed to two new youtube channels. Big win!

In this video, Brian Gase confirms a plug/drain in the Frunk. This is news to me, as I thought there was no drain there. Maybe I just missed it.
I noticed that as well. It seems odd, especially considering some of the bits in the frunk are carpeted and appear non-removable.

Maybe he misspoke? The drain is supposed to be in the under bed storage.

That's been I think two questionable statements from Brian from the reviews. And watching the Elektrek interview he seemed out of sorts compared to previous times I've seen him talk. I suspect he's just stressed and has seen so many iterations of the Truck that his brain isn't clicking quite right, right now.

edit: The video does show a drain. that's interesting.
