    Very comfortable, even on longer drives. I was surprised because I thought all the edges and different shapes would be felt but it works.

    Felt nice to me on our half our test drive, but I was focused on other driving dynamics. Thank you @crazysccrmd for the more detailed 3500mile review. :thumbsup:

    I saw a yellow R1T this morning and it’s worse than I thought it was going to be. I heard someone comment that they hadn’t seen the yellow in person yet and that it must be rare and the proud owner of the R1T proclaimed that was why he chose the color. Poor guy…

    They seem to build up a lot more snow/ice on the underbody without the heat from the engine and drivetrain under there.

    Are you getting a lot of spray through that slot in the wheel well?

    Not really, ice just blocked up and iced over. The rear tires send roosters tails of muddy slush about 4’ up the front of my trailer.

    Can you see both T and S in the shop? I think the banner up top when I had access said R1T not just R1 like your screenshot.

    That’s what I hoped for but there has never been anything available and I think they just grandfathered my access to the shop because I had it so long with the R1T. I switched not long after they removed the powered tonneau and I had a feeling that the quad motor max pack wasn’t going to happen.

    I rode in a neighbor's new Rivian and it was a super nice and fast truck ... loved it ... but I still get paranoid on running out of battery power.
