I received a UPS notification that a package from Rivian will arrive tomorrow (8/30), but Iām not sure what it is. UPS says shipment weight is 8.5 pounds, which sounds light for the tonneau cover, IMO. I also recently ordered the tailgate bike pad, which lists at 5 pounds so maybe my shipment is...
This Campstream is interesting and something to follow, but I need heat more than A/C where I camp.
I got this for $84 and used it to keep my tent warm in 32F weather and I think it used ~4% battery all night.

Iām okay with this run being considered stock since the tires and drivetrain were unaltered. I also suspect the rock sliders could be in testing to be an original equipment option, so then this becomes no different than someone just using a different/higher vehicle configuration. Just like...
I went from older R1T to newer R1T and this solved the missing under dash 12v for me. I just need usb power for my left-side dash phone mount, so the ODB port location is also better.

+1 didnāt hear anything about 400,000 EDVs to Amazon. As an ex-Amazonian working for AWS Sustainability, I can assure you their 100,000 EDV commitment is such a MAJOR messaging point, that if it was quadrupled, you would have heard Jassy say it himself 100x by now!
I got my dark ash wood styled tonneau done today and just created a new thread for this specific build, in case anyone is interested.

Here my take on a DIY tonneau where I wanted to use six 9ā vinyl flooring planks to get the 54ā length. I built two 27ā sections attached to 1/4ā plywood so that I can use one or both as camp tables.
This was a very easy build until I got to some final details regarding the weather stripping...
Excellent work, JJ! I was recently considering these brackets to add folding legs to another project. If you wanted some corner supports, maybe theyād be of use to you (or something like it).

+1 mine donāt seem to be working well. I thought maybe it was related to true summer heat vs previous uses of mild heat, but now Iām thinking something is up. Iāll try the rear climate vent thing and also keep an eye on updates, since maybe thatās also related here.
Thanks again for sharing! These are the vinyl planks Iāve ordered going for the dark ash wood look. I see this as a temporary solution until I receive my $800 Rivian cover, although if it comes out nice and I feel it has longer term viability, Iāll sell the Rivian cover and keep this (perhaps...
My delivery guide said the wiring should still be there when I expressed mild disappointment I had no interior 12v.
Iām sure someone more motivated than I will re-add the interior 12v by end of year.
And if nobody does, maybe it wasnāt that important, after all. OBD to USB probably solves the...
Thanks @Bf3! Yes, theyāre waterproof and Iām aiming for the dark ash wood look. Iāve looked into maybe finding some sort of UV protectant and/or if they can periodically be re-darkened over time via some sort of āstainingā process. I think I can do this for about $200 total.
Any structural...
Has anyone tried vinyl plank flooring? Iāve just ordered a carton of six 9ā x 60ā planks so Iām thinking thatās exactly 54ā length and I just need to miter saw my ends to 55.5ā or whatever it is.
The planks are 8mm (0.3ā) thick and Iām thinking about gluing them in sets of 3 (27ā x 55.5ā) on...
