Hello,
New to the forum and I have a question that was recently asked by another member, however I would like to ask about it from a different perspective without intruding on their post or taking direction away from theirs.
I am currently configuring my R1T, Green with the 4 Motors.
I'm stuck at the question of the Adventure Package and here are My pros and cons if someone could kindly weigh in with their opinion;
Pros: The Look
Cons: The Range reduction
About me:
Located in Southern California. I work from home and don't commute but when I do it's usually just San Bernardino To Laguna/Newport to Los Angeles areas with the Occasional drive to the Mountains or Vegas.
I'm personally fine with the "stock set" of tires that it would come with BUT I would LOVE the more aggressive look that you get with the adventure package. My only concern is really the range reduction.
I have a Model X 100D and a Model X Plaid, Plaid with a max range of 330ish and the other 100D with a range of around 270 and I do notice the difference there.
I'm a child. "Young" in physical age but I'm probably maybe 7-10 years old with the way that I act. I enjoy the speed responsibly, and while I'm not expecting a RACE CAR out of this TRUCK and I don't expect it to compare to the plaid, I just want to share these characteristics of myself to see how someone else might think I would value the Adventure pack vs non. I want the aggressive look and would want to use the power of the car and would want to have the best range or reasonable range but I notice that the range drops from around 300miles to 260 when adding the adventure pack. Do you think this is that big of a sacrifice or that noticeable of one in terms of the range and speed for the look? Would it be significantly less comfortable? (I do have a lifted silverado for just "sussery" or "moving needs" and I do always catch myself looking at other silverados with regular tires and no lift thinking to myself, Man I really picked the right choice here. I also understand that having a lifted Silverado would influence the fuel efficiency similarly to how the Adventure package would to the range on the Rivian, but my concern is that it would result in more frequent need for stops/more anxiety/more time at stops possibly when that isn't exactly a sacrifice that comes with a lifted/larger tires on a gas vehicle. )
Other things to consider, I likely wouldn't install a home charger as I do have plans of moving within the next few months so I would likely be charging this thing at a super charger (or whatever Rivian calls theirs)
I apologize for the lengthy discussion and appreciate those who read this far. Looking forward to connect with you all here.
TLDR: I want the nice look and aggressive look of the adventure package but stuck between that and the sacrifice of range going from around 300 to 260 when adding the adventure pack. Curious of your thoughts and how you weigh these, or even better how someone may currently be experiencing the actual difference I'm asking about here.
