Is no one going to comment on the bottle of tequila and shot glasses being a part of his “always ready for anything” kit? 😂 Love it! 🤙

You may see them in other videos down the road. I tend to have Pliny nearby often
I love your videos and I believe there is another way to open and close via verbally asking Alexa to "Open the Hood" or "Close the Hood."

That is true! Ill try that one today, thanks Joe
What a great video. I’m gonna have to fill mine with ice sooner rather than later. Totally agree about the ability to move the net around to different configurations, and fortunately mine hasn’t snapped despite pulling it pretty tight at times.
GREAT VIDEOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Even though the R1T is mid sized, the storage capacity is bigger than full sized!

storage is insane on this thing
Hey Mark, I now have a PhD in THE FRUNK! Seriously, I didn't know about its versatility?!? Thanks. I would like to see more comparisons between the R1T and Tesla Y. Pros/cons of each, etc. Your videos are super informative! Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. I just posted a few hours ago a "Road Trip" video where I spend several minutes comparing those two vehicles. Check that out. I will eventually do more comparison videos. Right now Im trying to cover all the features of the new Rivian. I also have Tesla solar stories to share, hope to get to that asap.
Really like that bottle bag you have for the tequila! What’s the brand? Of both of course!!! Great video

Arette is the awesome brand of tequila that is my favorite and every friend who tries it really likes it. And the bottle bag is from Opux.
Great videos as usual. Do you know frunk weight capacity? I like to use it as a big cooler for my processed vacuum packed tuna with ice after my long range fishing trip from San Diego. I can add ice every 2 hours to keep tuna cold. By the way, I have R1S ordered back in 10/2021 & waiting anxiously 😅😁

I dont' know the weight limit actually, I looked online and didn't find it, but will keep looking and let you know. The F150 says theirs is 400 lbs. Not sure I would put that much weight into this, but it is very solid, so I would guess 200 lbs would be ok (total guess for now)
You mentioned solar. Can you do a video about your use of solar for charging your car? Do you have enough panels to juice up the house and the cars? Does that save you tons in Cali? Kilowatts only cost 6 cents per kWh off peak here in MN.

I am getting ready to do a Tonneau Cover video, and I have "one in the can" I have to edit where I tested temps in each storage spot of the truck on a hot day, then after those two videos I'll get to work on a solar video. We have a 6.8 kW solar panel system with an estimated energy production of 9,915 kWh /yr, and that is enough for a family of 5 and 2 electric cars. It's hard to answer if it saves money because the house battery is for mostly peace of mind we will have power at all times during blackouts, and the battery was $11K, so if you include that we break even, if you dont we save a lot of money. And then there are many other benefits of solar. Anyway, more on that soon
Since this filming the Rivian App lets you open and close the frunk.
Can you fit a set of golf clubs in there without taking any of the clubs out of the bag?
