Motortrend Drives the 2022 Rivian R1T Off-Road Across the Trans-America Trail

[kanundrum]

I don't care what my wife says, today is way better than our wedding day.

I recent install some garage lights and wired everything up to code/spec and it all worked with out me having to redo anything and Might have mentioned how happy I was along these same lines. Needless to say I was hearing it... lol

Maybe more appropriate to “ACTIVATE FULL TANK MODE, NOW!!!” Good to hear it was a friendly encounter!

I’m just glad to see it didn’t turn into a scene from Deliverance ?

Damn. Is anyone here worried about the AT tires and all the flats they had? Ive ripped on my Cooper AT3s for the last few years with no issues. My Landrover also only has like 260hp and 300lbs of torque.

i wouldnt be too worried about it, sometimes its just bad luck. my friend with a colorado zr2 bison went through 2 tires his first time taking his new truck off road, and we're not talking real off road, down in a south FL fire trail service road, where its just a white gravel road. and he had goodyear duratrac tires, i know quite a few jeep guys that run those no problem out in real off road trails.

Yup, stuff happens. I popped one on my Range Rover off-roading at Joshua Tree a couple of months ago. Tire slipped off a rock ledge onto a sharp rock below which ripped the sidewall. *poof*

Did MT take down the videos? I was seeing them this morning, but didn’t have time to watch. Does anyone have links to the new videos from today?

I don’t know if I’m blind but I can’t find the video if there’s anyway someone can link me directly to the video I can’t seem to find it on the article

and.... they may have taken the two videos other than the charging one down... weird. There were three in their list this morning night, and now only the one. I'm pretty sure they were also in the articles earlier. At least they were on my phone.

I felt like I was going crazy - I saved them for after work and they were gone :*(

Mmmm maybe the TRX in the video was from the TFL guys and they didn't want the video out there until tomorrow since they have their game changer event.... the reason we didn't notice them was because they were hiding just in case MT would release the videos by mistake, like they ended up doing. So, great thinking by the TFL guys to hide and don't let the MT guys record them. Tomorrow, the MT video will drop again, at the same time that the TFL video premiers!!

Lol. You wish. Given the number of times Roman has shit on Rivian for not being to market I'd be surprised if they have access before the other reviewers we all know of.

Yeah, 0% chance the video tomorrow has anything to do with Rivian ?

So. New game. Why do we think the videos went poof?
