    Insurance + Data logging

    Upsetting report about how invasive insurance companies are with regard to driver data. I wonder if Rivian sells data on "acceleration events." GM obviously does.

    Cooling and Heating a tent using Vehicle A/C?

    I've been following this product that just launched on Kickstarter. It uses hoses to connect the vehicle's A/C to a tent. How effective do y'all think it'll be? Might be limited to hookup sites? I got one of the early bird pledges, but might cancel.

    Sandy Munro Takes R1T Off-Roading + Load Test

    Sandy Munro takes the R1T to an off-road park. According to Sandy, the R1T outclassed the Jeeps that were there, although Cory says Sandy hasn't regularly off-roaded in 2 decades. Interesting that the R1T was on 21 aeros without the underbody armor.

    New Report Dropping the 28th

    In the most recent Transport Evolved News, Nikki said that she back from Colorado where she test drove a vehicle -- but it's under embargo for 10 days: Dollar to donuts that it's Rivian, especially since someone in another thread spotted her photographed with an R1T and a small group of...
