Hello Rivian owners,

Rivian R1T R1S Mars Adventure Gear: Quality Gear for Rivian Adventurers 1744565815858-5k


We’re beyond excited to introduce ourselves here! Mars Adventure Gear is a fast-growing, California-based brand founded in April 2024 by a group of outdoor enthusiasts and EV industry engineers. Frustrated by the lack of thoughtfully designed gear for electric vehicles, we decided to build our own. Our mission is simple: to make electric camping, off-roading, and overlanding more enjoyable and accessible. That’s why every Mars product is crafted with premium materials, sleek and functional design (often with no exposed bolts), and a low-profile, stealthy aesthetic engineered for optimal aerodynamic performance.

We’ve built an extensive lineup for the Tesla Cybertruck platform, and after adding three Rivians to our fleet—and months of testing and development—we’re thrilled to unveil our first Rivian-specific products: the Mars Expedition Rack for the R1S and R1T.

Nice lookin’ stuff! Any plans for a truck bed topper/shell? The market really needs an option for the R1T that has a better OEM appearance and aerodynamics than what’s currently out there. Would love to see something that is made with OEM-matching paint options like those that exist for all the ICE trucks out there.

Thanks for coming to the market!

Maybe down the road, why not? It's a much bigger project, tho. We need to grow faster!

Not that I'm personally in the market any time soon... If roof rack will be offered for the R1T, would like to see bed rack offered at different heights. One that puts cross bars of bed rack same level as floor of roof rack and another few inches lower (so top of a typical RTT could be level with roof mounted cargo). Reasons: Part aesthetics, part easier access to cargo/spare tire in the bed.

Does the RTT install easily on the standard Rivian crossbars? I’m assuming it’s too long for the T without sticking way over the bed?

I think any hardshell would be hard for pickups ... you can definitely install the rtt with the rivian crossbars on R1S.

Yes, you can install it on the Rivian bars, but to your point, yes, it will stick out. :whew:

Depends which RTT and what hardware they come with. Some are more elaborate. Some are more crude: bolts/nuts and flat bar or u-bolts. There is an outfit that sells CNC mounts specific to iKamper Skycamp Mini and Rivian crossbar: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/rtt-mounts-from-wheel-every-weekend.14699/

Various RTTs have been bought and shared in the forums. The one that fits the best over R1T's bed and doesn't protrude much past the tailgate is the iKamper Skycamp Mini, which is essentially the same as the Rivian branded one featured in the Gear Shop (just different color ways and a few other details). Closed footprint is 57-½" x 54-¾".
