I don't CC anymore, for various reasons, but have wanted my @peashooter (rip) in the center console on multiple occasions. My wife hated the idea of it just rattling around. THIS IS PERFECT!

Yeah TacRig makes em pretty solid. Needed a 90 degree drill bit to start a pilot hole for the quick release pins. Nice it can easily be removed to not take up space. I don’t like the idea of dark Walmart charging parking lots, being a sitting duck not being able to quickly remove the charger to take off. …and yes, for those that have been around this forum for a while, RIP Peashooter!!

- This one, that one and the other one.
I too am not a fan of the "Dark" wheel style Rivian offers. Would be great if they offered the standard All-Terrain wheel in black as well. But, they charge what, $3,000 more for dark wheels? Very easy to find places to powder coat the wheels for $600 to $800 for the set, including mount and balance. If you want black wheels and like me, not in love with the style Rivian offers, save over $2,000 and just get the standard 20" all-terrains and have them powder coated.

Should've expected nothing less for your delivery post. Priceless!

. I don't CC but that looks like a great setup; I often wonder what folks do for truck guns, and that makes sense. Shame they don't make em for my main driver (no, it's not a hi point).Awesome posts, glad you're enjoying the truck.

Yes, the PPF installers painted them for me. I used Speed EFX in Centennial, CO.

A more disturbing set of photos has never been seen on this forumMy 7/19 R1S preorder of a LA Silver, FE has finally arrived. I have employed the help of two struggling YouTubers to help show you around the vehicle. May I introduce Bimberly Cava, from her channel, "I'm not Narcissistic, just look at me!", and iPyle Donner, from his channel, "Introspective Reviews"...
I turned my back for only 10 seconds, and Bimberly Cava started to climb onto my roof to pose. She couldn't resist a camera. I turned around and yelled at the top of my voice, "STAY OFF MY GLASS!!", shaking my fists like an old man...
Bimberly Cava and iPyle Donner insisted on stopping at the Coors Brewery in Golden, CO since we were in a Frozen Silver Bullet..
We stayed after the tour and partied at the local liquor store...
Later, iPyle Donner decided to measure the charging curve for an upcoming podcast on "Introspective Reviews"...
A few more MODS I did including a detachable carbon fiber TacRig in the center console, Canvas back Black with Yellow stitching, and a full size spare in back...
It's been quite the ride on the forums for the last few years, but it's been an absolute blast, and I've enjoyed all you salty crew members. This has been the most exciting vehicle I've ever owned, and so far, no issues.
Cheers,
opnwide

Here is a quick video on the spare. Let me know if I can answer any questions…
On the other hand, congratulations!

@Gshenderson I got to thinking, I haven’t heard from you in a good 1-2 years…how’s your Truck, your travels to your cabin in WY, and your elk season last fall? Hope all is well in UT.

@opnwide and I finally met after years of forum foreplay and needless to say the venue was perfect. We met at Living the Dream brewery and it was an honor to drink and chat over a few beers and a delicious chicken peston sandwich! Thanks for taking time to chat about life/cars/and shennigans!
Cant forget a picture of the silver bullet it self.
