I have a low garage. Is it possible to set the opening height of the front trunk?

No but if you hit the button while it is raising it will stop. This works for the button by the bumper and with the keyfob.

Thanks for the tip. Would be nice to have a memory setting for it though. Very easy to forget to hit the button to stop.

You can also grab on the top as it's opening, and when it feels the resistance of you holding it back, it will stop.

Which, in theory, should mean that as the hood starts to make contact with something, such as a low roof or a canoe, it should come to a stop.

In theory!

Yeah, I prefer it to make contact with my hand, other than something hard that could scratch or do so some damage to it....better safe then sorry!

I know you have a R1T, not an R1S, but I still can't believe they haven't enabled height adjustment on the R1S rear hatch...seems like a relatively simple software update...

OP just made me realize the open frunk height is taller than the roof height. ?

Maybe set your Rivian into lowest ride height?

Glue a piece of styrofoam or egg crate to your ceiling where the frunk would hit it if you forget to stop it - you probably park close to the exact same spot every time. It's not the most attractive solution (my wife, for example, would never allow it), but it would work and keep the front top of your frunk from hitting the drywall.
