Same really.

The one that hurts my head is the Ioniq 5. It's looks like a Golf, but is basically the size of my XC60 with the wheelbase of a Telluride. I just got an ID.4, and it does the same thing to me. In my head it's the size of my old impreza, but it's eerily close to the size of my XC60.
Wow I didn't realize the Ioniq 5 was that large! It looks amazing though, definitely checks the design box in my book.

It is definitely wider than my Tacoma which I am happy with as we feel quite cramped in the Tacoma on our long drives, especially when loading up for camping. But with that said the first thing I noticed wasn't the fact that it was wider, I think they did a great job on proportions (although that could be due to the camo wrap).

Will try and get more side by side shots next time I run into one.
Looks like the cab on the Rivian is sizably bigger than the Tacoma. That, plus probably better interior space due to battery below the floor, I will assume that the R1T should be more comfortable than the Tacoma. I always feel cramped when I ride in a Family member's Taco. It feels super inefficient in terms of packaging.

Unlike the OG Taco, which is the most efficient way of delivering a tasty, balanced combination of meat, veggies and flavor in one bite.

This is a great (and probably only) opportunity to share with anyone who'll listen that I think Tacoma Taco is a great name for a Taco spot either in Tacoma or for Tacoma fans or both. Your sign could be one of these deals:

The family member that owns the Tacoma, lives in Tacoma. Tacoma-ception.

I successfully derailed yet another thread. And none of y'all helped settle the debate...
