^ only on the top trim ($73K) version.... only heated on the $67K version.

The kitchen is seriously worth the $5k imo.

I don't know. I can put in a portable induction cooktop. A 5 gallon paint bucket with a small pond pump. And a set of cheap kitchen ware for less than $5000.

Not bling at all, but it works for $4500 less!

The kitchen is innovative for sure, but I have no need for it. Looks like it works well.

I did order the full-size spare tire though, to me that's a 'must have' item. Too bad it's $600, but it's large and the rim is expensive too (and it includes a TPMS sensor) so not really a bad deal.

I read the full owners manual last night, it's sparse on fine details in some areas... but the RT1 is loaded with hidden features!

Fun fact... the RT1 has two 12v batteries in the frunk.
Fun fact... the RT1 has a built in hard drive for video surveillance storage.
Fun fact... you can use the air compressor to blow out the bed. Love that feature

Still waiting for someone to test this thing towing. Is OTA working? How about their FDS? So much to see after the honeymoon.

I hope it works as advertised. Will probably invest on the IPO if there is enough actual owner feedback. Doubt it will be a long term holding but at least until Ford and CT start deliveries.

Anyone noticed?

Rivian will be impersonating Elon Musk with charging $10k for their autonomous L3 driving feature that will supposedly be ready in "2 weeks or maybe by 6 months for sure" release structure.

^ yes, we noticed... and many are not too happy about it since like Tesla's FSD it's "limited" and mostly still considered beta at best.
