I really wish Rivian would put together some type of document and/or webpage with each of the vehicles "features" to date even if they don't list what's standard or optional at this time. I only mention this because I happen to recall reading about roof options a couple of months ago which is virtually the same as the above tweet. A forum poster found buried in some Facebook group and posted to another forum back in June as such:
"In a FB group, a guy said Rivian told him @ NYIAS that there would be 3 different roof options:
1) Electrochromatic glass with 20 shade/color options.
2) Fixed roof
3) Some sort of removable roof "
It would seem Rivian's Aug 13th tweet response breaks-down #2 into two separate options:
"fixed glass panel (non-electrochromatic)" and
"standard fixed roof (solid; no glass)"
Assuming the "standard fixed roof" would be standard (no extra cost) it will be interesting to see the costs for the other 3 options. Also, Rivian's response was to an R1S roof question. Wonder if the same options will be available on the R1T.

Perhaps. My last 3 vehicles have had a retractable sunroof and never experienced a problem. However, I've read plenty of forum posts where people claim their removable roof leaked or had some type of problem at some point. Not saying this will happen with Rivian but it might not be as popular as one might think. It will be interesting to see how they designed it.
