They do have a Tire Change mode (pg 155 of the Owner's Guide).
I've added that to the list of current modes. Also updated the votes on the first post as well.

@rosspa2, what does Camp Mode look like to you? At my First Mile drive, the local Rivian employee talked about camping directly in the bed of the truck and wanting to be able to control the led lights the line both sides of the truck bed.
Simply crashing in the cab. I've been out a few times where it's a long drive, hot or cold during the night and just find a spot to sleep. Truck keeps me nice and comfy. Would also be good if it self leveled - probably good foe all sorts of camping, bed, roof top etc.

Valet Mode - All Purpose mode + max speed 55mph, acceleration reduced, lock front trunk, charge port door, gear tunnel, tonneau cover, and tailgate. Pin required to disengage mode.

Admittedly, there is no way I'm tossing my fob to valet, but figured this would get the thread and format started.
A good feature to include valet mode is locking out navigation, so whoever is driving your car cannot see where you live. The idea being that no one is home and they (or an accomplice) can burglarize your residence.

Definitely needs to have Grass/Gravel/Snow and Mud/Ruts with the appropriate changes to throttle response, regen, and ride height.

My wife would love for the vehicle to automatically drop to an access height when parked.

Rooftent or Tailgate mode: vehicle self levels for camping, cooking, or setting up the tailgate as a buffet.

Theft mode: if a window is broken all doors lock so a thief cannot open a door. This won’t stop theft, but will make it more difficult.

Though it's a low risk, I think that's a good idea. I could even see locking out the entire center screen, replacing it with a "how to start/drive/park this vehicle" page. But everything else (HVAC, radio, maps, etc) can all be disabled for valet mode.

James Bond 007 Mode

Engaging 007 mode instantly cranks the Gunbarrel (James Bond Theme) out of your Meridian system both inside and outside the truck (so that others can turn to watch). The moonroof retracts (heck, you wanted this option anyway) and when the electric guitar solos ... the offending passenger is ejected through the roof.
