The mat is hilarious! Does the passenger mat fit? In regards to the screen/VIN showing 20s, wasn’t there some discussion about that maybe being an issue? I thought someone mentioned that they wanted to switch to 20s for the winter and Rivian would have to change some settings in the computer.

Well glad to see you finally got your truck! Sucks about the issues the floor matt one is a glaring mistake if I was the delivery person I would have just removed it and said we needed to get you one rather than show everyone that that could even happen and get past QC.

Paint it self is decentish but it was prepped for shit LOL. Still adheisve remaining etc, from what I was told their main detailer was not there and did not touch my car and it was another person who just did a quick wash.

YAHH pretty odd, to be honest I dont think people are looking that hard, they are over worked and want to get the vehicles out fast.

Congratulations! I expect a precipitous drop in online forum posts from you while you get out there and adventure in that beauty. Before you do though, maybe you have posted in other threads but what types of paint correction/ protection do you have planned?

Eventually Ill be doing a full paint prep DIY my self with ceramic coating inside and outside.

Products Ill be using

I would probably agree, nothing will protect a surface that will be used like that on a daily basis but really the best thing you can do is clean and condition at least 2/3x times a year.

That's what I plan on with just my usual chemical guys leather cleaner / conditioner. Then I guess keep baby wipes in the truck for some reason.

Question about ride settings: does wheel size change anything in regards to settings? If the car thinks you’re on 20”s and you really have 22”s, would that be problematic? Do the suspension settings require you to identify wheel size for calibration?

Maybe something to check……..

Miles and speed will definitely be off, I am putting in a ticket once I identify all or any other items from delivery.
