One of those things that you need getting use to I guess. Just like how some people were being pedantic about backup cameras, and those same people now can't backup a car to save their lives without a camera :)

But generally speaking, cameras get dirty especially in a place like Chicago where salt and mud are a staple, and more often than not the Camera's are kinda useless.

All that aside, aesthetically it looks like the car has a micro penis syndrome :CWL: Big and large with a tiny stick.
Yes at that point it may be best just to remove it rather than be exposed to that criticism

This was on another forum and people thought this was at an airport (wheelie stairs in the background) and the cargo pallets being used. This led to speculation of why air shipping - when and where.

It’s absolutely at an airport. Vehicles are only palletized like this for shipment by air. They’re either going overseas or need to go somewhere domestically in less than 24h. The former is far more likely. Could be sending some presents to their Saudi investors.

Has anyone seen a R1S in any color other than LA Silver?
Not a production one I can think of. It's a little odd. I don't remember seeing a production silver R1T though.

Saudis are getting their R1S wrapped, probably flown first class and I can’t even get basic info about it.

the wrapping looks like regular ol shrink wrap applied by the cargo peeps. I’d pass ?

We spotted this R1S back in July when we stopped to charge in Bakersfield. Unfortunately this was the only pic my husband was able to get as we were on our way out and the Rivian had just pulled up.

Those 21s look mighty narrow. Does anyone know if 20s are wider?

It’s mounted to the glass because that portion opens separately from the lower part.
thats still a rumor at this point and hasn't been confirmed other than by CS, who often are misinformed.
