Or just drip holes to let water that got in a path to get out.Great to see we get full undercarriage (composite?) protection.
Could that middle part with the holes be for feeding air to the battery?
Welcome @coryofthenorth.Nice parking job, Rivian folks. 😛
Thanks. I absolutely love my Outback, but I'm purchasing a new teardrop trailer and need something with more towing capability. The only other vehicle I've been considering is the Kia Telluride, which gets consistently great reviews. I decided on the Rivian because I like to be forward-thinking and eco-friendly, and because in my opinion nothing looks remotely as cool as Rivians. However, after reading so many comments on these forums about the likelihood of not receiving the actual product until 2023 or later, I'm having second thoughts. Waiting a year is hard enough. Waiting two years is probably a no go. Ugh.Welcome @coryofthenorth.
I see you are upgrading from a Subaru Outback. The R1S will be a massive upgrade!
Were you looking at any other vehicles before putting down a deposit?
Have you placed an order for a R1S yet Corey?Thanks. I absolutely love my Outback, but I'm purchasing a new teardrop trailer and need something with more towing capability.

I don't know how long this has been on the road but the underbody seems to be holding nicely.YouTuber Dominic Wilbrink came across a R1T prototype at an Electrify America charging station and was able to get a look underneath and above the truck (with a drone) before the tester spotted him.

I put my deposit down on one a couple days ago.Have you placed an order for a R1S yet Corey?
Did you expect otherwise?I don't know how long this has been on the road but the underbody seems to be holding nicely.
No I wasn't. But it's still good to actually see what it looks like after going through testing.Did you expect otherwise?
