That looks great! I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product. I’m a bit bummed I’m not taking advantage of the gear tunnel for my R1T, or as dedicated as you are to make my own version. We now have an R1S also preordered and it will be great to have the transportability to easily...

The stove works great, but I never got around to testing out how fast the different burners boil water when plugged into the Rivian for a comparison to grid power. I’ve found, however, that for my use I probably could have just gone with a single burner and a separate electric kettle for...

I was wondering something similar. Red paddle co makes a Schroeder valve adapter that may work. I’ve never tried it with the air compressor, but it works well enough to adjust pressure with a bike pump for fine tuning. It could be what you’re looking for. My paddle boards are all boxed up...

1000W on the stovetop boils water really fast, and I can’t imagine a scenario where I’d go that high for anything else. I don’t think I’ll ever have a need to go above 1.5kw total for both burners at the same time, but honestly haven’t tested what happens if I were to try from the bed of the...

Benchmade knives are made in Oregon, and they recently (last couple of years) came out with some cutlery options. I wanted a fixed blade knife to use as a dedicated camp kitchen knife (no folding mechanism to have to clean) with some decent corrosion resistance. Recently I had been eyeing...

Thanks for the feedback. I wasn’t trying to be misleading in the post, but felt my title had a better ring to it than “Bougie car camping setup with an induction stove.” Sorry if it just turned into click-bait for you. I’m watching others work on their self-made shuttles in other posts, but...

Thanks for the feedback. Those Plano cases look a little more sturdy. If/when my storage option fails I will probably upgrade. I’ll see if some more comments are added over the next few days and then will go back to my original posts and add those options in as edits.

Eating: Plates: Hydroflask 10” Plate, REI, $100 for 4. Thank you REI Dividend. They’re insulated, which I thought might make it a little safer for kids over a simpler enamel/steel plate. But they’re also a bit bulkier and a lot more expensive. Bowls: Stanley Insulated 18oz and 32oz Bowls...

Cooking: Stove: Duxtop 2-burner Induction Stove, Amazon, $230. I bought this after reading NYT Wirecutter reviews. I haven’t taken it camping yet, but it boils water quickly at home. I thought the 2 burners would be helpful for adding the option of a little more complex camp cooking and match...

Storage and Large Items: Table: REI Camp Prep Table, REI, $150, I like that it has adjustable legs for uneven ground. It also was purchased preR1T. It is a lot more expensive than a simpler folding table that can be found at home improvement stores or Costco. But having uneven ground isn’t an...

I originally pre-ordered my R1T with a camp kitchen, but with delays to its availability have instead begun to look at other options. I also find the gear tunnel to be a really nice place to store things, and don’t really want to give up the space for something I will likely use only 2 weekends...

Something like this, maybe? Just with a 4.5 foot long power wheels??

I currently have 3 reservations. That certainly isn’t happening… One LE R1T, one mid-21 R1S reservation, and one late-21 R1T max reservation. Originally I planned to keep the R1T and consider replacing it with the max when it was available, particularly if the added range was going to be...

Just curious, does your configuration show an increased price for you or your original price? Wishful thinking, but maybe a bunch more configuration price changes were rushed and there will be more notifications maintaining original prices. Or that there will be backtracking over the next...

I voted for switching, and did that, but also a little more… After finding out my earliest expected max pack delivery would be 2nd half 2023, but that I could have received a large pack adventure R1T Oct-Dec 2022 (based on others with similar pre-order dates, not communication with Rivian), I...

Haven’t really followed this thread or posted on it until today. I’d be willing to take over a LE pre-order for 10k if it would likely get me into an R1T in the spring (in Oregon), 5k for mid-late summer. Happy to swap for my May 2021 reservation (originally a max pack with recent 2nd half...

I’m a relatively recent pre-order holder, reserving a max pack R1T in May 2021 with an expected delivery 2nd half 2023. The recent Reddit poll of expected delivery dates demonstrated that I would have received an Oct-Dec 2022 delivery for a large pack R1T, and 1st half 2023 for a R1S, assuming...

I can add another data point. I funded through an ACH transfer with my bank on the day of the IPO, set up via the Morgan Stanley website. It said it would take until 11/15. The funds now show up at Morgan Stanley, but don’t appear to be transferred out of my bank. I’m optimistic it will all...

I’m strongly considering a RTT, but much prefer the look and function of a hard top. I hadn’t thought about the warranty aspect until these comments. My ideal tent would sleep 4 (2 adults, 2 kids, and maybe a dog), open and take down quickly, fit over the bed and not require mounting split...
