Just a note about the 3rd row HVAC vents for your pets. If a seat belt is not clicked in on the 3rd row the vents do not operate. I asked Rivian if they had any plans to have a pet mode for them but the answer was nothing in the near term that they are aware of.

I purchased these from Amazon, if you click one into the rear seat belt receiver before you fold the seat down it will allow the 3rd row vents to work. You probably do not want to leave it plugged in when you reach your destination as it appears the vehicle thinks someone is still inside and does not go to sleep. It does help to keep the pets comfy on the longer drives though.

Just a FYI about this.

I can't speak specifically for the R1S, but on the R1T with the rear seat belt permanently plugged in (car seat in my case), the alarm will not work and IT MIGHT increase vampire load.

Just something to think about.
