Thank you! She deserves so much more. It started with her in her little Audi Q3 wanting a rooftop tent and wanting to go off roading/camping with me.. I was like why donāt we just trade that in and get you a Rivian and get a rooftop tent to match! Iām excited to go on little camping adventures...
I have three R2's on order. Two for my business, one as a gift for my Mom.
My goal is to get a top tier tri-motor for myself for my business and have it wrapped and branded, another matching one (but likely dual motor) for my employee, and likely a dual motor for my mom as well.
Really...
It's about as much fun as can be, lol. Ice measured in at 17" thick. The military drives tanks on it when it's 12"+, it's safe - BUT the first year I did it? 100% freaked out the whole time. You get used to it. But, the whole time you're standing on the ice, it's creaking and groaning and...
It's always a blast getting onto Georgetown Lake to do some ice racing - the Rivian honestly crushed it with the stock Pirelli AT's, I was seriously impressed.
Drift Mode was way too rear wheel biased, Rally Mode was perfect.
For what it's worth, though, I enjoy wheeling my Rivian way more than I did with my TRD Pro Tacoma I had. āŗļø
There's also been a handful of off road routes where the Rivian did substantially better than my old TRD Pro Tacoma due to bigger wheels, better ground clearance, and a way heck of a lot...
"butt dyno" ? that's AMAZING. Okay, I'm definitely going to steal that and also going off my own butt dyno lol. That's all the evidence I have, it is quicker, and I'm excited to see the Gen 1's get launch mode too and see what they can do - and agreed that a tenth or two isn't super significant...
Going from a Gen 1 Quad to a Gen 2 Tri-Max, I have to say, I love it. It's a more "jack of all trades" kind of vehicle and it's a nice upgrade from my Gen 1.
I off roaded my Gen 1 pretty hard and it never failed me, the Gen 2 has been just as reliable.
I love having more torque, it's...
Hi All! I am so sorry for posting my cool new truck and then dropping off the face of the earth⦠lol! Been busy skiing, exploring, off roading, all the goods!
I also got the truck wrapped in a full matte PPF wrap - it looks freakinā SHARP. Hereās some new pics, answers to your questions, and...
Today's the big day, I upgraded from my 2023 Gen1 Quad to a 2025 Gen2 Tri-Max.
I had a bit of a business situation where it made a lot of sense to upgrade (and of course, I wanted to)
Delivery at Rivian Denver was smooth as always, the truck is flawless. Perfect fit & finish. I'm in love so far...
It's nice to have a Rivian AND a Grenadier! That's AWESOME!
I hope to pick up a trail slut here in the next few years. Either a SxS, or an older Jeep that I can turn into an off road monster that I don't care about getting scratched up.
Do you take your Grenadier off roading?
I'd love to...
I think crab walk could be way more useful if it was faster to turn on and turn off. I think it would be super handy if it was a click of a button, not a 10 second hold.
the rear view mirror camera is slick - I like it a lot! I would like if it was a bit adjustable but I do really like it!
You and I friend, we are not so different. Iām also getting the new Rivian in a few months!
I would literally empty my 401k (okay not literally) but you know what I mean, for a Rivian with rear wheel steering.
I would love love love love that so much.
I really like your assessment on the...
1,000,000% this. Half of the hummerās buttons donāt even do anything useful and thereās a few buttons that *LITERALLY* donāt do anything.
I miss the well thought out UI of the Rivian SO SO much!!
Yeah, yeah. Lol. Expensive. Just about $5,600 total to rent it for a month. My insurance is reimbursing me $1,500. Worth it? Nah. But now I can definitely say I made the right choice going with Rivian!
