Lol, I wonder if anyone will pick that. Seems the general consensus is they're ugly. More people would want the R1T wheels on the R1S, I bet.

From there linked in, I think we will hear more about how their energy is renewable for their charging network. I doubt EPA or anything of substance.

Curious that the "Lookbook" images for a L.E. R1T do not show a trailer hitch bar protruding below in the truck rear bumper views? I would think having the 'Adventure' package would mean getting a trailer hitch included. Maybe yet another jolt coming when we do final configuration pricing for a complete vehicle purchase.

I just made a post about the same thing. I'm hoping its a rolling update to the renders and not a trim limited option.Curious that the "Lookbook" images for a L.E.

I think its behind that panel the ones that show a hitch show that panel missing like on a tahoe for instance. I think that's nice hides the ugly bits easier to clean and aerodynamic.Curious that the "Lookbook" images for a L.E.

All vehicles will come with the receiver (not just Adventure trim) according the the FAQ.

R1T Crossbars
R1S Crossbars
Bike Mount
Snowboard Mount

Surfboard Mount
Recovery Kit
Maxtrax
Field Kit

Not sure exactly what I'm looking at with the kayak mount. It could be that it has some load assist features.
We're still not seeing any kind of devices to raise the level of the two bars that sit in the R1t's box.
This feels so much like Christmas. Maybe I should get the forest green colour. With the red kayak on top, that would fit the mood. Or, maybe go with the red truck and red kayak. That would work for Christmas, too. Or, maybe, ......

It's the platform the camp kitchen sits on to allow it to be easily stored and removed. Rather than permanently mounting the camp kitchen to it, they have designed it to be usable without the camp kitchen to easily access anything you want to put in your gear tunnel (backpacks, storage bins, equipment, etc.).

Is it just me or does that Shuttle System look like a nightmare to maneuver?
The support leg looks longer than what extends out. So, to flip it up for storage, you also have to de-extended it some way. I am sure the Gear Tunnel door provides temp support, but still seems like a lot is going on there for that support leg.

I haven't seen it in person, so I'm not sure how it works...
It's possible the leg is just the perfect length to fold out when the tray is extended. It's also possible the leg has a hinge in the middle and folds in half.
I wouldn't be surprised if the slides hold the full weight of the tray and kitchen, and the leg simply adds support (less bounce) when you add weight on top of the kitchen and start "using it".

Doesn't look that way to me and my ruler seems to agree.

Everything here makes sense except that field kit as its for skateboards. That would be something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, MSRP on that recovery kit is $135. Something to note if it's sold through Rivian
