Gear Guard symbol yea or nay?

[rivianfun]

Ok, there was a post a while back where Rivian drivers wanted the coveted Gary Gear Guard symbol on their non-quad R1S or R1T on their’s. Why? It’s human nature to want something different or even something you could never obtain. all most every brand has this envy i.e. Honda with the SI, Corvette and the Z06 on & on etc.

I have done both whether it’s the afford ability of it or not. I embrace it because it shows compassion and detail with creativity.

I was surfing EBay and I came across this Gary the gear guard pin. A light bulb came on. Not copying the Quad Rivian but created my own Gary for the Dual Standard model . What do you think. Simply cut off the pins on the back and I added the black heavy duty double sided tape which has a little thickness to it.

The Gary badge is an "if you know you know" kind of thing. And if you know, you know that that badge ain't it.

So I have no problem with this.

Perhaps were I four years old, I too would have such an orgasmic bliss over what I nicely will call an infantile pet mascot and colossal stupidity. I grew the [expletive] up long, long ago to go gaga in the slightest over this total bull.

Exactly! It’s not about trying to identify the car as a quad, it’s about having Gary on all the Rivian models.

Oh my, some one woke up grouchy and decided to use ChatGBT. Trying to sound smart and writing smart does not always work . Just saying …..

I like it! Not thrilled about the idea of putting heavy black tape on my paint though.

...wondering what that would do the the resale value of my R1T...

VHB is gray, not black, and is easily removed from paint without damage.

It's a lot like adding skulls to a motorcycle, it adds a few horsepower, reduces emissions, and is worth at least a 10% boost in value.

I thought the same thing here, and figured it was worth some design work, and a simple proof of concept. I've only made ~7 stickers and 7 magnets, so maybe if there is enough interest, I can always make some more. Anyways, I think it turned out pretty cool.

That’s awesome! There is a group of us that bought this car because we love cars and make them our own if and when we can and then there are the peeps that buy one because it has four wheels.

Wow dude why are you so angry over a little sticker? There’s nothing wrong with doing something fun once in a while and it takes maturity to not take yourself so seriously occasionally. I think it’s time to refill your Valium script and calm down a bit.
