I get the help offers on occasion as well. I take it as a remaining sign of hope for humanity.

I tell them it’s “big enough to fit a body” then encourage them to come closer to take a look while I stare just a little too long without blinking.:devil:

I've gotten offers for help before, but the best was (appropriately enough for this forum, I guess) a river rafting guide who came up, took a look, and said, "well, your first problem is that your engine is missing."

I'll contrast that with the time I didn't get an odd look. I was renting a post hole digger from a local chain store, and was expecting some hassle from the folks working the counter when I pulled up in my R1T. Did paperwork, paid, ect and pulled around back to hook it up. Guy came out, he went over the controls with me, signed my paperwork showing I was leaving the yard with it and walked away. As I rounded the building I spotted a Ford F-150 Lighting hooked to a Level 2 charger in the employee parking area. Ah, now the lack of reaction makes sense!

Rivian should use this image in their ads!

We're about to leave on a road trip. My wife has filled the bed and the back seat. I told her "that's OK, I just need about half the gear tunnel." But, in light of this inspirational image, I think I'll add "...and the frunk--I'll need the whole frunk!"
