Did you happen to ask him about the redesigned powered tonneau cover? Or how the manual tonneau cover works and when it will be released?
I’m also based in SoCal. Is there a way to find out what other Expos Rivian is attending?
Agreed. That’s a great way to look at it.
But I also agree that one tie down on each side doesn’t do much. I would rather they include none, but make them available for purchase in the Gear Shop for those that want them.
I’m with you there. All three of the vehicles I mentioned will likely be delayed (again).
Fortunately, I do have faith that my R1S will deliver next year.
The engineer’s comments are no more hearsay than your comments. Instead of blindly trusting what people say, let’s look at the evidence of what we have seen from Rivian so far:
Rivian knew it’s powered tonneau cover design was flawed before it ever delivered the first unit to a customer. We...
I’ve been skeptical for a long time that Rivian will actually fix the powered tonneau. They have known about the issue for years, and still don’t have a fix. How much more evidence do we need than that?

This is what I would do if I were in your...
It is so much more practical to have a squared off back end like the R1S in a SUV of this class. You aren't limited to height restrictions when storing equipment in the cargo area like you are with most modern "SUVs". I'm looking at you, Model X!
I prefer the aesthetic, as well. If you want...
Thank you to everyone who replied. I actually think Rig'd were originally planned to be a part of the Optima builds. You can see their logos on the vehicle mock-ups. I will reach out to them to see when they estimate a release date for their Rivian fitment.
