Yep, got the email. I am waiting on a pre-March ā22 Performance Dual Max in FL. I can see (only) a single non-Perf. Dual Max in Compass Yellow available in the shop.
Retired with similar situation and similar questions/concerns; also with a Max R1T due to deliver a little after yours; also have the early pricing discount; also have an early Cyber order. Only occasional towing for me (mostly local) which does make a difference, but instead I need 1x to 2x...
Thanks for the info. So far no ideal aftermarket solutions, and there may never be. But Iām with you⦠Apple centric and donāt plan to change⦠so will have to find some kind of solution with which I can get happy enough. Appreciate the details and the experimentation as I await my Max R1Tā¦
This is 'small batch custom' stuff... think Etsy without the overhead. As a many months follower of this particular project and the other various BoxGods Rivian projects on his site in general, I am SO VERY IMPRESSED with the engineering and deep thought put into each one! So ...at least for...
Re: buying a second frunk floor panel and cutting openings for a cleaner look⦠if that was done (the cut outs), would the remainder of the tank be low enough for the floor panel to sit flat like OEM placement? Waiting for delivery of my water tank from BoxGods⦠AND my R1T Max.
My Max Pack R1T is estimated for Feb-Mar 2024. But I was concerned about insurance rates and availability, esp. here in FL. So I contacted the Rivian/Nationwide team and asked them to give me a quote on my two existing Hondas (2017 Ridgeline and 2017 CRV) along with a theoretical Rivian (based...
Tonneau retrofit related question, in case I missed something:
One automotive blog (albeit with no official Rivian quoted sources) said (on Sep 7) that PTC retrofit will only be available on R1Ts that have the original factory installed tonneau rails. Makes sense⦠howeverā¦
Although I heard...

A related article dated 09/07/23 re: the (likely? possible? definitive? impending?) return of the...
OK⦠so then apparently NOT available on vehicles not yet built, despite the various comments here. At least not yet. We still need OFFICIAL notification from Rivian. As posted earlier by Supratachophobia: āThe real question is will they let us add this back to our configs, at the original price...
? So from where does the information displayed originate? I have a pre-March ā22 R1T Max Dual reservation with a most recently quoted delivery date estimate of Feb-Mar ā24. If I go in and attempt to reconfigure my build (just tried), there is no option to add a powered tonneau cover offered to...
There have been several reports here in the last 24 hours related to customers taking delivery of 2022 VINs (think they were R1S). Not sure where these vehicles have been hiding out since being builtā¦
Donāt get overly excited on this⦠As of today there has been zero indication (other than unofficial comments by a few Guides) that the PTC will ever be made available on new R1T builds going forward, much less as a retrofit to already delivered trucks. As of today no new customer can configure a...
I guess we will have to agree to disagree - we see āgoal postsā very differently. To me a goal post is a target, a performance goal you set that you articulate, plan for, and aim to achieve. Granted, sometimes things change and goals have to be adjusted. But there are consequences to making...
Yep⦠ditto. I am (finally) somewhat encouraged by the apparent Max Pack information of the last few days. FEELS like it is finally going to happen. Yeahā¦trust⦠but verify.
Ongoing twice monthly 350 mile trips, monthly local-ish towing, and pre-March ā22 pricing are my rationalization for my Max...
Add those 2 percentage increases together and that is us here in FL on two 2017 Hondas with no incidents or issues. And that is BEFORE we replace the Ridgeline with a R1T Dual Max yet to be delivered. Just received new annual bill: 29% increase.from The Hartford.
I understand and share the sentiment. So you only got moved out a month or so, still maybe in fall of '23. That seems to be the earliest new delivery estimate I've heard for a Max Pack R1T... which at least makes me feel like they ARE going to build them (otherwise everyone would have been...
Curious about what exactly makes you believe the updated power tonneau cover (PTC) will āget to usā? Replacement of existing faulty tonneaus may arrive by mid fall as you say. But I am aware of ZERO commitment Rivian has made to EVER again offering the PTC as a configurable option that I can...
Yeah... same, except I'm pushed to Feb-Mar 2024. "Pulling the plug" is definitely now on my mind, but I've always struggled acknowledging the accounting principle of 'sunk costs'. If communication from Rivian was better (MUCH better), and they would keep their other commitments better (MUCH...
