off-road

Just returned from a short (22 mi round-trip, ~5 mi one way in significant snow) trip up a gravel Forest Service road, slight elevation gain (~500'). Road had an accumulation of about a foot of snow, condensed over the past month or so. One set of old-ish ruts, a number of snowmobile tracks...

Hey folks Sharing another off-roading fun. It was a last minute decision to go off-roading at Hollister Hills SVRA this Saturday, and CJ and Marco from the Bay Area Rivian Club joined. CJ unfortunately couldn't stay long so hopefully next time... Another one of these where you look at an...

Hey gang Last week I took a short vacation and I, my wife, 2 kids, sister in law and her husband went to Yosemite National Park. I've been itching to off-road so I found a very nice trail leading to Shuteye Peak in Sierra National Forest. The reason I am posting this, is to share my impressions...

Range anxiety used to feel like the biggest limiter. But with EVs, many drivers are adapting, planning smarter, packing lighter, and keeping routes within an “easy return” distance. The real question: has this shift made trips less stressful… or just more restricted? How has EV ownership...

Took our 2025 R1S Dual Max on its first off road test today over Breakneck Pass near Fairplay CO. Aired down my off-road tires to 25 psi. Had my new rock sliders installed. It handled the 20% pitch and 15% roll with no problems at 11,000’.

Part 2 of our Sedona video begins with checking out Overland Expo West where we find some pretty sick Rivian Overlanding set ups and more! We find an easy trail near our Airbnb for a night time off-road cruise. Between trees and forrests and take in the beauty around us. As day becomes night...

My R1T crossed over 42k miles recently and like many folks, I was becoming due for new 20” tires. I liked the OEMs for my mainly on-road driving, but occasionally off-road fun. I’ve geeked out for months over all the tire brands, potential size changes, etc. but there is one brand I’d never...

Hi all- I'm in need of some new tires on my Gen 1 R1T. The stock 20" Pirellis have lasted about 40k miles and are ready to enjoy retirement as a swing in a tree. I'm still working on what tires I want, but I'm tossing around the idea of some aftermarket wheels. I don't like being like everyone...

Hey all I hope you all are doing well, I am planning a trip to Big Bear CA, and want to take my R1S off roading. I should preface the by saying I have never been offroading before, and currently running the road tires, I am however going to be getting the ATs from Rivian. I would greatly...

Heard about a trail called Strawberry Pass, and saw comments about how it had calmed down a whole lot since there was a fire that rolled thru and the fire service dozed it for their vehicles. Well I found out nature is quickly reclaiming it, this is a clip after I had turned around to get out of...

Hey team, Posted a few videos of recent adventures with the Rivian. Take a look and let me know what you think. We’ve got big ambitions for the channel, so follow along if you want to see more.

My onboard air compressor for filling tires is broken. It failed on the fourth tire after airing back up from a trail journey 3 days after delivery. My service appointment to fix isn't for a few weeks, and I'd like to have a compressor while I wait on the fix (plus have a backup on hand in case...

So I was off-roading the other day and approached a rock shelf that was just a bit too high… that silver front skid plate got a nice dent and some scratches and even a small hole. It is surprisingly thin plastic and doesn’t provide much protection for whatever is behind it, so it seems like a...

This is the clubs first off-roading day-trip and will be an easy starter with optional more difficult side paths for the adventurous. We will be going to Santiago Peak of the Saddleback Mountains at 5,689 feet of elevation and the highest point in Orange County, with 360° views of all four...

Doesn't owning a Rivian make you want to just blast down a dirt trail? Isn't it a real shame that you can't impress your girl with all your incredible off-roading skills because you don't have the spare you so desperately need? Well boy howdy do I have the ticket for you! I have a couple rims...

There are a growing number of rock sliders out there with a variety of vehicle applications, shapes, styles, and materials. However, not all sliders are made the same. Regardless of whether you are in the market for a pair of rock sliders, have pre-ordered a set of ours, or just like to geek...

Over the past several weeks I've had the opportunity to take our R1S on a number of 'adventures' on some pretty rough back roads here in Washington State so I figured I would share a short review of my experiences. I'd estimate about 100-150 miles or so of driving in what most people would...

Please join us for an off-road meet up! We will be meeting at Crystal Springs Sno-Park just off Kachess Lake Road and i90. This event is aimed toward Rivian owners but if you have a Rivian on order and an off-road vehicle capable of keeping up, we'd love to have you join! We will have our first...
