No More Storage Cubby In 3rd Row Seat Armrests

Last night, when I reached my Rivian truck after work, my iPhone displayed a message. I captured a screenshot to show what happens if you avoid signing back into the app. The Phone as a Key (PAAK) feature still works without logging in again. If you're in an area with poor cell service, don’t try to sign in. Instead, keep using the app and PAAK until you’re somewhere with a good signal and can access your password. The screen’s text explains this, but some users still get confused. This is a quick tip for PAAK users to avoid trouble.

For new owners of the Gen 2 R1S, if you're a fan of the cubbies under the armrest for the 3rd row seats, then it's safe to say that you may either be a bit disappointed or pleased with the changes made by Rivian as the cubbies have been replaced by cupholders.

Personally, I don't think it's a bad upgrade, but putting the USB-C plug in the cupholder storage doesn't seem like a smart move to me as liquid could be spilled at anytime to cause damage.
Guess Rivian thinks otherwise, and they feel the cupholders might come in handy someday.
