Have there been any deliveries of R1Ts without a tonneau yet? I suspect we'd have heard if there was a manual one out there, but for all my searching I can't find anyone who's gotten one without any cover. I suppose I just answered my own question, but... anyone?

I have not heard of any no tonneau deliveries and despite many people asking, no one at Rivian has apparently ever even seen the manual tonneau, so I wouldn’t hold my breath. And I say that as someone who has the manual tonneau in my configuration.

If they would get rid of the tonneau covers, they could probably make a lot more trucks.

I agree completely. I don't really need or want the cover. I just got the address confirmation email, and wondering if I'll only have the option for trucks with it

There is a reason why none of the other truck manufactures offer a tonneau cover from the factory.

I got an answer from customer service:

Hi Jesse,

Great question! Currently, we are producing vehicles with the powered tonneau cover option and have not entered production on other options as of yet. Let us know if you have any other questions!


Stay adventurous,
Will

Signing their emails “stay adventurous” seems ironic given the topic in question. Living with that powered tonneau will definitely be an “adventure”
