None from me after a year. Pairs great the the Launch Green, and i love the wood color.

Black was so boring and gets very hot.

I wasn't planning on getting Forest Edge. Partly because I wasn't sure how it would really look in person, and partly because I saw no need to spend the extra money.

But the closest match in the shop was a Launch Green configured just how I wanted it except for interior color, so I went for it. No regrets! I think it looks great, and although I don't have the other interior colors to compare, I do think it is cooler than a black interior, and hides dirt and causes less glare than an ocean coast interior.

Itā€™s funny - now that you mention it, Iā€™ve never actually ā€˜cleanedā€™ the front seats. I wipe the backseats off from time to time as I have a 6 year old and car pool but other than vacuuming I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever wiped the front seats off.

So yeah - Iā€™d say they stay clean - Iā€™m 15k miles in at this point. šŸ˜…

FE is *chefs kiss. I was worried because I had never seen in person. I do not at all second guess my decision. I love it! If you want to really pair it, go with FG on the outside. Absolutely perfect color combo. Do it. You will not regret the decision.

Iā€™ve had my FG/FE one year. A few months ago, I was given a loaner R1 with a Black Mountain interior for a few days. Getting back into my R1T with FE only reinforced how much I prefer the FE interior. To me, the contrast is just so much nicer than the BM and I donā€™t have the concerns about cleaning a white interior. If you are fortunate enough to be able to afford an R1, I would get what you want, and to me, the cost of the FE is more than justified by Rivianā€™s execution of the interior.

See it in person. Zero regrets with my FG/FE truck and get a lot of compliments on the combo. I was lucky that I got to see one back in early 2022 before I had to commit to it. I will say that OC looks damn good too, but I'd be worried about keeping it clean.

Wife and I are very happy with it. I love that it's dark and desaturated enough to not look dirty nor stand out.

I generally don't like colored interiors because they usually have to "blend" with black on the dash or other various places and it looks really half-assed. Rivian spent way too much money making sure everything is color coordinated.

It feels like it should be ugly, but it's wonderful in person, especially with the beautiful warm wood. I WOULD NOT get it without the wood.

My only regret is not waiting to get it.
