  1. Yes, it makes the bed ultra small. About like a Maverick but wider. And almost no wheel wells since it has bed flares.
  2. There's also 12v and 120v power inside the tunnel to charge gear. And a rolling cover to access the tunnel from inside the cab. The tunnel doors act as huge steps to tie things onto the roof cargo bars, and/or reach into the front of the bed.
  3. All of the weight ratings are pretty crazy on this thing. The gate can hold 1k. The tunnel doors fold down as seats and they are 250 each. Rivian rep laughed and said something about a piggish Harley would even be fine.
  4. These are two of the many reasons that I won't do a moto trailer. Towed a 400lb R3 in the bed last week and it worked perfectly, although the tailgate had to be down the entire time. The range hit was minimal, probably 10-15%, but the truck handled great. If I had to guess, the dedicated motorcycle trailer would definitely impact range much more. Upvote3DownvoteShareShare R1T Preorder Consider that there are speed limits for vehicles with trailers. For example, WA state is 60mph regardless of the posted speed limit. OR, MT and ID are 65. There are sections of highway in each of these states where you'll be going significantly slower than the rest of the traffic if you're adhering to the letter of the law. I've towed my motorcycle all over the NW, including each of the aforementioned states and it's a bit irritating to be slower than the flow of traffic. I'd put it in a truck bed if you can. Does it fit, though? And I guess, in the long run, maybe it's time to sell the TT and switch to a small toy hauler type, or the kind that have a front basket or rail for motorcycles.
  5. Hmmm. Edit to be clear: It's a ramp and bed extender. $230 and out of stock for now.
  6. Yeah, after my 187 day pure food period, I know what it's like to have no joint pain and feel great. "Addictive" is a great description.
  7. An additional consideration is that I MAY be able to rig up a solution to having both my dirt bike and travel trailer together. This cannot work as it is. The tailgate has to be down for the bike, and can't be down for the trailer. But probably solvable with some welding.
  8. Or actually, your body on shitty travel food. This is what happened to me in Austin, and always at NeXXt. When it's hard to eat non-junk. It also lets some joint pain creep in, and since my watch band has fixed positions I can feel myself blimping up and having to adjust it.
  9. That seems a bit weird. "Normal" things are pitas, pita chips (usually greasy and salty though), and veggies. Many people love raw broccoli with it (I don't really), and many other veggies.
  10. That might be the one I had for a while. I used it once, to bring a bike home from CA. It was fine, the vehicle was not. This was retarded because it squatted the Jeep so much, as expected. (Ignore the seemingly broken angle, I had released the straps and the anti-tilt/anti-rattle mechanism so I could purposely tilt it.) On this truck it would not affect handling or anything much, so I'm good with getting one again. I'd probably buy something nicer.
  11. Absolutely no on a trailer, and I should have been more clear that I will carry the XR for sure, the Zero maybe, and never both. Just one at a time. There will not be a trailer in my life again, period.
  12. I will want to carry the XR with the Rivian, and quite possibly the Zero. The XR is light, but super long and tall. The Zero is XX weight, about 520 wet, and medium long. Considerations are convenience, loading ease and safety, and the aerodynamics. Please hold any discussions about how to tie it down until page 5. The critical dimensions as I see them... Front of the front tire, to the middle of the back tire (I think this is what matters for the bed, and for the carrier size): XR, 72 Zero, 68 Front of tire to rear of tire (for total width if loaded on a carrier): XR, 88 Zero, 84 Bed size with tailgate down: Straight front to back, 83 Cross-wise, 75 bed, and 84 to corner of tailgate The truck squats super low when parked, so loading height is very low. Therefore ramp length is irrelevant, as is having a curve in it. Bed height when parked is One thought with the hitch carrier is that it probably could also be used as a rail and ramp in the bed, serving two methods. The truck has a tongue rating of 1155, so weight is not a factor. It's also auto leveling.
  13. I've never seen it, definitely try others. And you dipped what in it? I love hummus and make it often.
  14. Corned beef hash, hash browns. What brand hummus? Some, like Cedar brand, are bland garbage. Boar's Head and Sabra are pretty good.
  15. Very far from healthy, but a nice treat. Blood sugar impact was somewhat high, and very long lasting, not just up and back down.
