Yeah set expectations at around half range. Maybe better in some situations, potentially worse in others. Any electric trucks definitely won't be cross country heavy RV towers yet without a lot of patience. If you don't tow very often, but have a few routine trips, try playing around with...

To be fair the guide or whoever was showing him the truck wasn't doing him a lot of favors either. - Didn't know charging standards - Didn't know wading depth so unanswered question - Didn't know stats on battery shield supporting truck's weight - 'I don't know' about temperature effect on...

My truck is old and before car play / android auto / etc were a thing but doesn't this work with just bluetooth audio? Maybe I just don't know what I'm missing.

65 inches long, 18.1 inches wide, and 20.3 inches high, but not sure yet how that maps to the odd shape.

Honest question, is there a legitimately good reason to be sending pre production trucks to all the reviews, all the customer first mile events, etc? I feel like they'd want to put their best foot forward but sometimes it seems like they just did that so they could see what breaks/gets...

Unless they swapped review trucks for the one picture, it's ocean coast. https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/r1t-2021/first-drive Also: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/ocean-coast-rivian-interior-photos.2299/ Some look lighter than others, seems like it will depend a lot on...

Think of it like putting gas in an ICE vehicle. Let's say the pump puts in 1 gallon of gas every hour. No matter what car you put it in or how big that tank is, it gets 1 gallon per hour. In a prius, that gallon might get you 50 miles, so you get 50 miles/hour. In a f150, that gallon might...

I still go back and forth all the time. Currently switched back to R1T so voted that but it might change again tomorrow. I have reasons & trade offs for both so it's hard to settle in, but then again I've got time.

Granted I haven't gone through all the new reviews/videos yet, but also looking forward to some real life range testing. Different modes, different tires, towing, weather, yadda yadda. Is 314 more like something that will only happen under perfect conditions or could we expect more than epa...

I just don't do any off-roading so had no basis for comparison, so was just looking around a little and thought that was cute :)

Nothing a Kia Sorento can't do :p

I asked CS the other day about when updating configuration might impact a change in delivery. They essentially said until contacted by a guide to lock everything in, update as much as you want. So this kind of jives in that since you've already been contacted by a guide it might have an...

I'm stuck in various levels of indecision. I have truck because I have a boat to tow, but on top of the season winding down, my towing /boat usage is way down, but mileage is way up due to changes in circumstances. I'm probably at least a year out from a rivian, maybe more since my...

Never really done any offroading but I've seen a lot of those cars painted/wrapped/whatever a tan/sandy/mud looking color to hide all the mud. Now that I think about it I guess I'm a little surprised that wasn't an option given what they're going for.

Doubt I'll ever definitely decide a color, even when I settle on one and take a delivery I'll still think other options would have worked too. I don't really want black, green, red, though they are nice greens & reds. I like the yellow but don't think I'd ever own it. Between the greys, I...

Also SE PA and a good bit of time in DC metro area as well. Still undecided on R1S/R1T but have a later preorder so won't be seeing it any time soon. Hope we all get some event invites or would be great to see some in person once they start getting deliveries in the aera.

I sure hope not. We really don't need another media dump where after every question or concern it's just "well, it's just pre production, maybe there's still hope!".

It's definitely a great package and value is pretty good for what's in it. That said if it's only something you'd use occasionally, and just want the convenience of being able to grill some food while at a camp site, out at a park, etc, you can get portable induction cooktops for less than $100...

Funny, just the other day I was looking at minivans and figured there no was no reason one couldn't be dropped on top of an electric skateboard and was thinking in my head about tongue in cheek slogans once Rivian got around to cutting out the first whole in that market. Life's Adventures...

Another thing to consider beyond your own personal impact is that if everyone waited until their cars died then there'd be even fewer early adopters, and without a lot of early adopters the EV vehicles would never really take off, or certainly not as quickly. I wasn't really in the market for a...
