the "v1.1" is extremely similar to the OG. V2 looks to still be using stacking slats, but they are much thinner. V1.1 still uses a single motor, V2 uses two motors AFAIK.
I get it. However, when I can see that other owners have gotten them replaced including instances where Rivian proactively reached out to owners with working covers to replace, why wouldn't I get the updated version? If it fails in the future outside of the warranty period, I'm going to be...
I had read of other Rivian owners getting their original powered tonneau cover replaced by the updated V1.1 (my own name, NOT the brand new V2). In some instances, the replacement was done under warranty even when the cover was still working.
