I have the non EV AT3 in 285/50r22 load range E on my lighting and love them. Range hit is around 10-12% depending on weather. Not enough to care because I work in construction so the E’s definitely hold up great with regards to not picking up nails ect like the thin OEMs do. Will put these...
I would either find some LT or range D or E to put on 22’s or find a set of 20’s with the stock ATs.
The stock 22 tires could blow with just a simple jagged rock or something if your not familiar with the trails. The stick 22’ tires are designed to be light to improve range , not go off road...
1) how big are you- how big / old is family members? I’m 6-4” 235 and if my 16 year old is 5-10” and if sitting right in back of me it would be tight. It wouldn’t be bad on a 30 mile drive but road tripping not so sure unless you are up a bit in your cockpit. Supposedly the R2 will have more...
Great write up. Question. If you had a starlink would that have helped out in Death Valley and would show the charger on the app on the phone or allow the truck to use the starlink hotspot somehow ? Also were your original toyos also LT or range Es like your new Nokians are ? Truck looks great.
I said compared to my 25’ Range Rover it seems that way - and the comment was A reply based off of ON road conditions - not off road.
So not actually “dumb”, just my opinion as I’ve had two vehicles back to back with air suspension. So yes , at least in my case with a tri - maybe not a quad -...
Not to “compare” but we are coming from a 25’ Range Rover. The air suspension actually works with the terrain. I feel the rivians is more for show than actually working with the terrain. And our Range Rover had 23” perellis scorpions as well so I’m thinking I’m comparing apples to apples no?
I agree with you on the tri R1S. On highway / smooth surfaces it’s as good as a Range Rover. On side streets / uneven roads I question it even has air suspension /let alone regular suspension. Yes mine has 22’s. You know what else has 22’s? My ford lighting. My ford lighting is twice as...
IMO the rivian dual should be $59k all day long. Having a ford lighting platinum / and a flash - the flash is a great price point while Platinum …. Other than massaging seats not much offense between that and flash
I know rivian doesn’t want to piss off customers but the R1T prices are way...
The first thing came to mind is when the CEO said they could come out with the EREV first. I know they have info showing who wants what orders but my guess is a lot of people cancelled their orders thst wanted a pure EV? Seems like an EREV is just like what blue ray was between VHS and...
I feel bad for ford as my ford lighting is probably the best all around truck I’ve owned . I’ve owned raptors /c450s/f250-350 ect - It truly is a shame they just didn’t continue to make it better.
Marketing wise not sure why they cancelled it instead of pump up a new generation lighting.
agree. We came from a LWB Range Rover and miss the middle row space. Other than that loving our Rivian.
Also someone commented on rear wheel steering which our Range Rover had and honestly the rivian turns just as good /sharp as the Range Rover did so not sure it’s a real upgrade IMO. Maybe...
I think you could make an argument if in 3 years rivian gets 90% of Tesla FSD - then the $2500 would actually be valuable for a used car because at that point rivian will justify charging more in the future / or at least people will think $2500 is a good value , if it ever gets much past...
New to the forum and we are enjoying our new R1S tri GEn2. I have had a ford lighting for several years and my wife secretly loved the performance and hates gas stations, but obviously isn’t a truck person , but loves the finer things in life. Thanks for having me. I kind of can relate to both...
