Looks nice and seems responsive. Glad to see Range Extender can be disabled and turned off with just a tap.
Wonder why they didn't bother previewing some of it during the reveal presentation.
Besides Pet Mode, Camp Mode, Night Mode, what do you guys think the other two modes are (at 8 and 11 o'clock positions) ?

I hope the frunk hood gets faster before release. That was painfully slow.

Dog mode is best part of my Tesla and why I drive it 
Really excited about the Scout. Definitely sell the Tesla to drive it!

Also, a 4 step process to open the trunk is a bit much. Swing open the tire carrier, open the top lift gate, open the bottom tailgate, and lower the inner lower tailgate/ trim. I wonder if there'll be an optional alternative placement for the spare tire. That's the best placement for true off-roaders but there's no way most people will be able to get access to the trunk while the cars in the garage. A Defender 90 swing tailgate wouldn't open all the way with my garage door closed. I was able to halfway open it to access the trunk, but in the Scout, you'll have to swing the tire carrier all the way or at least most of the way open before you can open the lift gate.
The interior materials look quite good, and the drivers door closed with that satisfying vault-like *clank* you get in a G class.

Yeah the frunk hood on my Lightning positively flies up and down compared to this! I'm assuming it's very reproduction and they will iron that out before consumer release.

It's all a compromise and set of trade offs. Bronco got rid of the separate tire carrier, making the opening action one-step, but the solution of attaching the tire to the tailgate means it must be a side-opening tailgate, which eliminates the sit-in tailgate . . . A full-size spare is the gold standard. If it's stored on end in the back, takes up lots of space (Excursion did that, but its wider). Store under the car, it's a PITA to get at when needed (f150, nothing worse than crawling underneath the car on a rainy night), and lowers ground clearance too much. The old Broncos had a separate tire carrier and tailgate, it was convenient and I got used to it. New Broncos work well as well, in both vehicles, the spare is there for the using when needed.Also, a 4 step process to open the trunk is a bit much. Swing open the tire carrier, open the top lift gate, open the bottom tailgate, and lower the inner lower tailgate/ trim. I wonder if there'll be an optional alternative placement for the spare tire.

Yep, that is the most Rivian software you can possibly get for sure. Everything about it screams Rivian.

I like knowing that dog and camp mode are planned for. Night mode could be nice too, abet I am curious what it will actually entail - I have almost considered doing a blackout mode on my LJ (for driving off road (my ranch) with night vision).
My LJ currently has a 3 part opening - unlatch and swing tire, open hatch up, swing gate open. It is annoying, but a better option than breaking the gate hinge. The LJ was designed for 28" tires, putting a 33" on it adds a bit of weight. I had 35" on it when I purchased it, but that lost articulation and could not be geared correctly without replacing the front axle. I can live with the 4 part - and honestly I have to question if the little bridge is absolutely necessary (but also note that I get a LOT of junk falling in that crack with my F250 when hauling limbs in it).
I have wondered if the frunk has room for a spare tire in it. Most people would prefer the extra storage probably - but there might be times...

They could go with a retractable rear window and swing out like my old 4Runner had.

The solid rear axle is a reminder this is an off roader like a wrangler or a Bronco. 35 inch off road tires are too much for a gate. My wrangler has a similar aftermarket system.

Pretty sure this is just because it's a prototype. There's a video of the pickup tailgate where that trim isn't even attached at all - just a loose piece that the guy had to put in place. The final trim will almost certainly be automatic just like in a Rivian.
