I knew the R1T would win but I didn't figure by that much wow.

R1T, very impressive even at 30 mph rolling!

I feel like the 115mph limiter on the Rivian is a good thing, because it might keep me out of jail. (Saying this as a person who's done a few dumb things in his Model S in the past.)

Am I the only one who finds the Hummer to be hideously ugly?

I'm guessing you don't like your women huge and gaudy either?

I am betting not so much on power limitations but really braking. You can only control 7,000lbs from a certain speed with out overheating even a HUGE brake system.

So what you're saying is, as long as I don't plan on stopping quickly, I can go a lot faster... ?

It's awful. The whole thing just looks like it's half-finished

I can even admire vehicles that don’t look great but are functional. I owned a Honda Element for Christ’s sake. I just don’t understand what is going on with that Hummer. It looks ugly AND dysfunctional.

Best quote: "Go on Rivian, you lightweight, beautiful bastard!" LOL! I guess >7000 lbs is the new lightweight in trucks.

Not my style, but 100% on-brand for Hummer.

It looks like a hummer. In 1996 i would have been all over it. Anyone remember the luxury pickup craze around then? They were all gaudy.
