That is the question. It is clear that the plastic that is removed was not preventing water or dirt from getting in that space. I have to believe this is all manufactured expecting these surfaces have elemental exposures. For me its less avoidance of exposure and more avoidance of collection...

Wanted to add my experience to this thread. I differ from @obfuscurity in having the reinforced underbody shield and having the "stealth" top plate revision. I managed to install these last night in a few hours by myself Easy to pull off the panels and clips per instructions using a long...

I received mine today. Has the revised "stealth" top plate where DCE is quite a bit smaller. Looks awesome! They look incredibly well made, and the texture of the powder coat is fantastic. Will try to install them tomorrow with the new torque specs!

any followup after KOH?

Ah yes, the shower. Another thing that I could do without but might definitely heighten the wife's experience that may lead to wanting to do more trips... might i ask what you went with?

I'm in the bay area, and its on my list of things to do over the next few months! Sounds like so much fun.

thanks for sharing. Do we know what the function of that piece in the middle that has now open cells is, and whether being exposed now can pose any problems? Is it for cooling of the battery pack? protection?

Awesome, thank you!

A great point. A dispersed camping area not too far away is riddled with crap and TP from holes too shallow, and while beautiful, is not on my list of places to go. I'm sure there are plenty of places like that, and certainly want to avoid.

heh, backpacking I take a deuce trowel, so the shovel and TP sounds luxurious. Again though, this is one of the creature comforts I need to provide so that the wife and 2 teen daughters will entertain going beyond plumbed campgrounds. Thanks for the ideas, the dry one looks cool but I...

But it slides under the tonneau ok? Something like this with a pop up is what I was looking for. Thanks!

Any favorite portable toilets that fit under the tonneau? Planning on venturing to more places without facilities, and while I dont mind making catholes, my wife and kids will have none of it.

any pics from the bottom?

For a second, i was admiring your garage and lift, then saw the Optima logo and figured out that was a screenshot from their garage. :D Try a breaker bar?

was pretty close to max lifting the rear wheels off the ground (Again in tire change lifted mode). I had planned on maybe stacking two pucks if needed, but didnt need to.

I did rotation with 1 floor jack. Torin Big Red 4-ton. Got high enough with 1EV puck and truck in Tire change mode. Its also low profile enough to get under our Tesla model 3 (looks like you have some Tesla in your profile pic) I did a 5-wheel rotation, so only one corner up at a time.

we are all EV. Model 3 and R1T. Its great, haven't had any issues or concerns, and we haven't looked back! Picked up a Clipper Creek dual cable charger to do load splitting of the charging circuit so both cars can charge L2 in the evening, and that has been clutch. Rivian starts charging as...

sadly cant make it, but looking forward to hearing all about it!

I just did a rotation with 20 ATs bringing in the spare at 7500 miles, a little bit later than I was originally planning to. Did myself at home. The fronts were wearing a little more than the rears, getting to about 10/32 (9-11 depending on where in the tire), while the rears were at 11/32. I...

Agree with above. Have an R1T and a M3P, and regen is much stronger with the R1T. You get used to it pretty quickly, though.
