I backed into a post with the tailgate down. I managed to make it all the way home with a new pre-hung door in the bed to replace a break-in, but did this damage in the final few seconds of my journey. At least it was my own fault (I'm simply disappointed, as opposed to angry), and it happened while doing real work.

Now my posh pupper pickup is a true work truck.

PDR to the rescue, I hope! I'll post pictures of the repaired tailgate if I can get it fixed.

All they do is love you unconditionally as long as you provide them with food, water, treats, beds, designer clothing and accessories, car seats, grooming, nail trims, training and attention :CWL:

Now you need to train them to warn you about poles:asshat:

If PDR can get the dents out, even if there’s a paint chip, you might want to consider the touch up pen and the put the XPEL piece of PPF over the top. You can buy that strip on Amazon. We got two rock chips on our hood driving the truck back from the factory. We had our PPF installer touch up the chips before they put on the XPEL. Looks like it never happened.

I don’t have any kids but I assume those same laws apply to kids, dogs, employees, etc…

On a related note, why doesn't the backup camera switch to bed camera when backing up with the tailgate down??? Seems the bed camera is only available during gear guard recordings.
Rivian has said this is coming (at least as a selectable option)

They look like little yippers - they probably were warning the whole time, domo just couldn't tell the difference from normal "pay attention to me!" yipping.

Yeah but these ones clearly had to work as a team, and did so poorly.

You’re assuming you know what their desired outcome was. I have caught my dogs conspiring against me many times.

We once had four dogs in the house, lightest being 60 lbs and the rest being well over 80. They definitely conspired against me whenever I was in the kitchen. "Okay, you stand there, I'll stand behind you, and you just bump into me when he moves, and then act like you're stuck."
