Little tight but they fit! Do they fit in the bed diagonal?These are my longest skis at 185. Just a comparison for fit.
Like the all gunmetal look on the wheels, will be interested to see how those hold up after a few months of winter. Also like your taste in skis...I have the Navis FB for my spring touring rig. Sadly, they are my shortest ski so I will be experimenting with the gear box on the roof this weekend...
Nice! Jealous of the closed tonneauWell my Atomic Bent 100 180s fit…
Don't worry it's not mine....I have a manual tonneau version coming unfortunately!Nice! Jealous of the closed tonneau
edit: on topic, 2.15 mi/kWh on A trip to summit county last week. Pretty chilly but not too bad… kind of impressed so far at how little the colder weather is impacting the truck
Thank you!Just finished our first ski trip in the Rivian. Drove from Manitou Springs (just west of Colorado Springs) to Copper Mountain. On our way back we did a side trip to Silverthorne which added an additional 15 miles. Total trip was 247mi @ 2.22mi/kWh and 111.3kWh used. This is about 89% of the battery. Without the Silverthorne side trip it would have taken 82-85%.
We have never been able to make this trip in prior EVs without charging. This includes an Audi E-tron SUV, Model X, and Polestar 2. We were very pleased on the performance.
Weather was moderate for this time of year. 10-20F on the drive in and 40F on the way home. I used the Conserve mode 2/3 of the trip. I needed the All Purpose mode (4WD) over Hoosier Pass and through Breck to Copper due to snow on the road. 5 people in the R1T with all of our gear in the frunk, tunnel, or truck bed. I left our cross bars with 4 bikes racks over the truck bed. But no drag from skis mounted on the roof.
Also the gear tunnel doors are so nice to sit on while putting on ski boots. My kids figured out they could open the rear doors of the cab, step onto the gear tunnel in their socks, and then put their boots on while sitting on the gear tunnel door. We are planning on bring a kettle to make hot chocolate and oatmeal next time. Such an amazing truck!
