R1S min height with Rivian tent on roof?

[Lips2000]

Anyone have pretty good numbers for the minimum height if the rooftop tent is installed and lowered to min height?
Want to know if I put the tent on in the garage if I could drive it out.
Max clearance of garage is 82"
Thank you!

I looked into this earlier and the short answer is it probably won't fit.

Standard ride height has the R1S at 72". The tent is listed at 16" tall when packed, plus add the rail height. I believe you can lower the R1S a couple inches but that's still not enough.

That would be installed on the roof. You can also install it over the bed and it should be about the same height as the roofline plus a couple inches. I bought an iKamper to do exactly that.

R1S doesn't have a bed

Sorry, thinking R1T.

Easy fix, order a casper, toss it in the 3rd row, ask alexa to play some soft jazz

Yeah but look at it this way, now you can take the whole garage with you. That'll be much larger than any tent.

Thank you for the quick response.

Might have to start my son on some weight training!

I must be spoiled mine is probably closer to 9 than 7

Which is good because I have that same roof top tent, and am planning on putting it on the R1S.

I don't have the vehicle, im going off old specs found here, which I havent seen any deviations so far

Garage 82"
R1S Standard Height - 71.65"
Difference between standard height and kneeling mode - 2.4"
Window for roof tent - 12.71 inches

Thin roof top tents
Roofnest falcon - 6.5"
GFC by go fast - 6"
FSR Odyssey - 7.1"

Any of these slimmer roof tents would fit, as the roof bars are 3" or 4" tall
