Hello Idaho Rivian Club!
We’ve got a great opportunity for a Rivian-specific off-road training course - but I need to get a strong sense of who would be interested before officially booking the instructor. Here is the proposed date, time, location, and costs:
***Please respond ASAP*** if this course cost/date/time would be of interest to you! Each vehicle can have multiple passengers (and I would guess up to 2 drivers alternating with attempts), but we can only accommodate a max of 10 vehicles. If we can fill up this course, I will confirm with Kevin and book the date.
Stay Adventurous!
