Forest Edge - ESPECIALLY since they got rid of the light wood color in Ocean Coast. I was on the fence between the two for a long time, before deciding on Forest Edge. Then Rivian ruined Ocean Coast by removing the light wood (heck, if they had just used the mid-tone wood from Forest Edge it would be fine,) and I was so happy I stuck with Forest Edge. (Plus it meant my truck arrived sooner. It was a long enough delay waiting for Forest Edge!) But my truck is "Forest Green", so the vaguely-green interior works with it. With a "monochrome" truck, especially white, Ocean Coast might work better.
I might be a bit biased, but I LOVE the Ocean Coast interior even if it could be even better with a few small changes. Glad you like it as much as I do!
I love the ocean coast, and your color combo is exactly what I wanted. But I ended up getting silver / black for faster delivery. Did you sell your polestar yet? My husband has the polestar and he’s a small car guy. but he loves my rivian so much that hes been taking my rivian.
I feel differently regarding the look of the steering wheel. I think the contrast created by the two different colors makes it more interesting visually.
Kyle, I think that the first Rivian truck that I saw in the wild was yours, driving up Eisenhower in Loveland 4 or 5 months ago. Great looking truck and I think the style will age well. Will look forward to your future Rivians on your channel.
11k vin as well with OC. Totally agree. Said the same thing about the steering wheel. It should be all black. Never thought about the roof shade. Fits well. The seat color in the video is authentic. The camera shot looks like it has a filter but the seats are a very light gray with a slight bluish tint. Beautiful interior overall. Now add Netflix, RUclips and Sirius for charging waits.
Im very concerned about the Max Pack R1T not happening. I have a 1/19 preorder with a first half of 2023 delivery window. I’m also Ocean Coast and hopefully they switch to black pillars, headliner, and airbag cover.
The light center on the wheel is why I opted out of Ocean Coast. It's even worse now that the light wood grain is gone. Love the light headliner but hate the wheel
Fully agree that the airbag and headliner color should remain dark. It also increases production costs have 3 different color air bag modules and headliners. I predict Rivian will be making a change for 2023.
I am a big fan of all of Rivian's interior colors: but Forest Edge has my top vote. I'm surprised that you two didn't see the appeal of the Compass Yellow exterior and Forest Edge interior. On the surface, I'll admit it seems like a horrible idea. But seeing actual photos of that combination, it looks really good! Have you seen the CY and FE in person and didn't like it? I still am conflicted about my perfect build, but it will have the max pack. 1) It's either Compass Yellow (CY shows the least amount of dirt and dust, and still stands out when on the road) with Forest Edge (I love the outdoor nature of the browns/greens, and I find it pairs well with CY). 2) Canyon Red with Ocean Coast is another phenomenal pairing! 3) The classic Rivian Blue with Black Mountain interior is a clean and ageless combination. What is everyone else's dream combination?
Rivian, please make steering wheels all black. The color matched air bags are seriously horrendous. Whoever thought of that should be removed from the design team! Also, please get grey speaker grills for the A pillar for Ocean Coast. I like the idea of getting rid of the lighter headliner too. Come on Rivian - simplify your assembly line!
Great video. Love the Black interior most. Unrelated question, is Brandon related to Jordan? I caught one of Brandon’s videos awhile back and was struck by how much he reminded me of Jordan. To now see him on your personal channel is kinda funny.
For anyone asking about my phone mount - I just posted a video walking through the setup and including links to purchase: ruclips.net/video/Im0-mRuaAek/видео.html
I much prefer black headliners because it hides dirt and stuff easier. A guy at work has a Model 3 and has only had it about 4 or 5 moths and the passenger side headliner near the visor has make up smudges on it already. I do not understand why something you will be touching fairly regularly is such a light color.
Definitely need to limit all steering wheels to black. Would be even better if Rivian simplified their builds and only offered different colored seats while keeping everything else black.
So, have you looked into the smallest wheel size that can fit over the brakes? 19s? Id love to see some SCS F5s or nomads or fifteen52 on a rivian but afraid they dont go that big
Prefer the Light colored Headliner, gives cars a bigger feel. Black makes them more confined feeling. IMO… White with the Ocean “was” my combination, until I cancelled the order back in March before the announcement of the price increase. Was just too much out of pocket, in hind sight should of bought it and sold it for a profit. Oh Well.
I like the white interior, but unfortunately my kids would make that truck look like a shit box in less than a day. 😂. Got to stay with black interior.
@@mattbrew11 by no means am I saying Tesla is even close to Toyota quality, which trounces Tesla by light-years. I would take a corolla over a Tesla any day of the week.
The Ocean Coast looks great. You indicated the steering wheel and he'd lined should be black. It's not a bachelor pad and you and others have women in their lives, so having a matching color interior. Thanks for giving us your man card. Sure glad Rivian had actual interior designers.
That's not Ocean Coast - it's Black Mountain with light grey seats. They should change the name. The second the light wood was killed I went to Forest Edge.
Which interior is your favorite? Black Mountain, Forest Edge, or Ocean Coast - for me, I’m loving the Ocean Coast!
Ocean Coast! I've pre-ordered a Compass Yellow R1S with the Ocean Coast interior and I think it's going to look great
I like both, but definitely the Ocean Coast!
Forest Edge - ESPECIALLY since they got rid of the light wood color in Ocean Coast. I was on the fence between the two for a long time, before deciding on Forest Edge.

Rivian nailed it with the darker wood on the OC but that white airbag cover is really hideous. REALLY!
I can’t wait to get mine! Unfortunately it’s going to be a while but I switched to the Ocean Coast interior
I might be a bit biased, but I LOVE the Ocean Coast interior even if it could be even better with a few small changes. Glad you like it as much as I do!

@@Wasabi9111 Polestar went away yesterday actually!
That Ocean coast looks amazing. Agree on the steering wheel, but Rivian knocked it out of the park on this interior.
I feel differently regarding the look of the steering wheel. I think the contrast created by the two different colors makes it more interesting visually.
Anxiously awaiting my Blue R1S offroad wheels, skids & ocean coast interior ❤❤
i have claustrophobia....and white interiors, and especially white headliners, are my favorites.
Thanks for the details on the Interior styles - Forest v Ocean is what I was hoping to learn!
We have an Ocean coast with forest green exterior on the 20” AT down here in Littleton, CO. Looks similar to one you reviewed at the first mile event.
Would be great when you compare the different wheels and tires to include efficiency, handling and road noise. Thanks for all the great content
The wood is Ash wood. I have an L.A. silver with the black mountain interior and love the combination.
I like a light colored interior, especially when driving at night. Good video. Thanks.
Wow that PPF shines 🙌
@jerryrigeverything said the truck levels itself so the uneven suspension could be that
I ordered the OC, just bummed they used black speaker grills. Their own design renders don't show black speaker grills.
Love the contract of the steering wheel and the headliner. Especially with a light interior.
Kyle, I think that the first Rivian truck that I saw in the wild was yours, driving up Eisenhower in Loveland 4 or 5 months ago. Great looking truck and I think the style will age well. Will look forward to your future Rivians on your channel.
Regarding the wheel and tire videos, would be interested to see if you can find and test a more efficient tire for the 20 inch wheels.
Of course there are more efficient options they are just no longer good offroad tires
11k vin as well with OC. Totally agree. Said the same thing about the steering wheel. It should be all black. Never thought about the roof shade. Fits well. The seat color in the video is authentic.

Ocean Coast would be my choice. I regret not ordering a Rivian back before they raised the price.
LOVE the new ocean coast interior. Already switched my configuration from black mountain.
Im very concerned about the Max Pack R1T not happening. I have a 1/19 preorder with a first half of 2023 delivery window. I’m also Ocean Coast and hopefully they switch to black pillars, headliner, and airbag cover.
I got green exterior with green interior on order, likely late next year, luckily locked in the pre-order pricing...max pack and all.
I agree with the dark steering wheel but prefer light headliner.
What phone mount is that? Need something that isn't too obtrusive in my R1T
Good catch. I didn’t even see the phone holder. I need my Waze and I currently have an obtrusive windshield mount that my husband dislikes.
The light center on the wheel is why I opted out of Ocean Coast. It's even worse now that the light wood grain is gone. Love the light headliner but hate the wheel
For someone that doesn't care about style, Kyle is a definite fashionista.
These cars are so nice for the price.
What company did your friend work for that does milage accumulation that sounds like an awesome job.
Fully agree that the airbag and headliner color should remain dark. It also increases production costs have 3 different color air bag modules and headliners. I predict Rivian will be making a change for 2023.
What color is your truck with the Forest Edge interior? Can’t tell if it’s White or Limestone? Thx!
Kyle with the Apple Watch ultra.

I still am conflicted about my perfect build, but it will have the max pack.
1) It's either Compass Yellow (CY shows the least amount of dirt and dust, and still stands out when on the road) with Forest Edge (I love the outdoor nature of the browns/greens, and I find it pairs well with CY).
2) Canyon Red with Ocean Coast is another phenomenal pairing!
3) The classic Rivian Blue with Black Mountain interior is a clean and ageless combination.
What is everyone else's dream combination?
Vinyl (plastic) seats? No leather? No spare tire?
Rivian, please make steering wheels all black. The color matched air bags are seriously horrendous. Whoever thought of that should be removed from the design team! Also, please get grey speaker grills for the A pillar for Ocean Coast. I like the idea of getting rid of the lighter headliner too. Come on Rivian - simplify your assembly line!
Smaller brake kit? Have you lost your mind?
Great video. Love the Black interior most. Unrelated question, is Brandon related to Jordan? I caught one of Brandon’s videos awhile back and was struck by how much he reminded me of Jordan. To now see him on your personal channel is kinda funny.
Kyle - I haven’t been able to find any winter tire options for the 21” wheels. Do you know if Nokian is making one? Thx
Excited to see all the hiking and extreme sports Kyle gets into with that new Apple Watch Ultra!
Saw one in NJ man the thing is small, how are people buying it for this price? Flex?
For anyone asking about my phone mount - I just posted a video walking through the setup and including links to purchase: ruclips.net/video/Im0-mRuaAek/видео.html
I think I would have to go with Forest Edge, and Canyon Red paint. But I don't think I can afford it 😭
That’s a pretty cool Apple Watch Ultra you have there!😅
I much prefer black headliners because it hides dirt and stuff easier. A guy at work has a Model 3 and has only had it about 4 or 5 moths and the passenger side headliner near the visor has make up smudges on it already. I do not understand why something you will be touching fairly regularly is such a light color.
Forest edge interior >>>
I'm too rough on/careless with vehicles for a light interior. Love the look but wouldn't work for me.
Rayan Shaw just reviewed his R1T. He had a problem with the maps not functioning right. Have you noticed a problem with the maps?
I would have loved the light gray wood. I also think it is not real wood. Other youtubbers have claimed they confirmed it is not real.
Definitely need to limit all steering wheels to black. Would be even better if Rivian simplified their builds and only offered different colored seats while keeping everything else black.
How do you like that Apple Watch Ultra?
I have one. Absolutely love it. I got the safety orange band
So, have you looked into the smallest wheel size that can fit over the brakes? 19s? Id love to see some SCS F5s or nomads or fifteen52 on a rivian but afraid they dont go that big
Prefer the Light colored Headliner, gives cars a bigger feel. Black makes them more confined feeling.

I disagree about the headliner, love the light headliner.
I'm surprised the psi is so high..i keep my car tires at 40psi and i think that is a rough ride.
While I like it too, something about the white steering wheel center feels WRONG.
I see that ultra Apple Watch!!!
I like the white interior, but unfortunately my kids would make that truck look like a shit box in less than a day. 😂. Got to stay with black interior.
Aren't the seats purchased from Hyundai lol? Glad they're comfy though!
The white looks way better than Tesla, Tesla looks cheap. It actually is cheap for the price of a luxury car, they give you corolla quality.
You just insulted Corollas
@@mattbrew11 by no means am I saying Tesla is even close to Toyota quality, which trounces Tesla by light-years. I would take a corolla over a Tesla any day of the week.
@@dece6170 so the Corolla is electric now? At least Tesla has the balls to make evs. Was a Toyota guy for life but they missed the train.
The Ocean Coast looks great. You indicated the steering wheel and he'd lined should be black. It's not a bachelor pad and you and others have women in their lives, so having a matching color interior. Thanks for giving us your man card. Sure glad Rivian had actual interior designers.
I don't think the other trick sits higher at all.
You realize most of those raffle companies use most of your money for salaries, and then make more money selling all your personal information?
Rivian R1T and Apple Watch Ultra, now we want to see Kyle rock climbing 🧗♂️😂
I personally hate dark interiors.
Not a single squeak or rattle…👍🏼 Just some drive train clunks. 😕
That's not Ocean Coast - it's Black Mountain with light grey seats. They should change the name. The second the light wood was killed I went to Forest Edge.
this guy def voted for kamala
Forest Edge looks like putty.
The headlights are so awful looking. Nice trucks but the headlights have to go.
Sorry folks, but this is one of the worst works you've done. You missed the light and it's hard to see anything. A great podcast thou!
Money is still so tight that they haven't started a production line for the sedan? Why can't they start producing larger numbers of vehicles?
LONG WINDED WITH VERY LITTLE INFORMATION.
Rivian is a darn boring car to be honest
Enough of the RIvian already. When are you guys heading over to China to see what those engineers are doing with EV's?
We should be doing everything to prevent that shit from being sold in the US
Why? Chinese parts have been in US cars for years. Curious how many peoples heads would explode if they knew how many are built in Mexico.
Hi Kyle, did you send me a message to text you on Telegram?
