As thrilled new owner of the R1T I wasn't too unhappy about not receiving the automatic tonneau cover given the issues.
But as even the likely Rivian manual cover or any other after market tonneau covers would not use the space planned for tonneau cover 'tiles':
I was hoping I get a few more inches of truck bed, but that is not possible. It should be possible though to use this space as some type of additional secured/dry storage space? There is no easy way to remove the top cover I have found though.
Was wondering whether anyone has figured out a way to take advantage of this space?
I was thinking that several thinner 12 v lithium batteries would fit and this could become a charging/power option for a fridge without having to use the Rivian outlets which require the Rivian to be 'powered on' using much more than just the power drawn from the truck.
Even if just making the top cover removable would provide some storage for smaller items?
Anyone come up with a use?
