I would refuse it, I Would not want a reject.

Why is anyone paying Rivian ahead of time? I would have not paid until the day of delivery, and I see the vehicle in person. Wire transfer/TCH payments takes minutes

I can’t order that, on the list

If that’s the case why wouldn’t they use a 20” efficient road tire?

the information of “ Trailer, TrekDrive ON: 1.9 mi/kWh” is misleading. In order to get the actual mi/kWh. You need to add the total battery capacity of the trailer and the Rivian. Then divided by the total distance travel.

I tow every 2 wheels or so. With my R1t if not in a hurry and not far. With my Chevy HD2500, ( gas) I get 13mpg. Full tank of gas~ $120. I get 350+ miles ( east coast) mostly flat. ( that’s how I came up with those numbers).

803 miles, cost you $540. In comparison a ICE truck would be around $200-$250. And save you at least 4 hours of road trip. Electric truck for towing works if you can stay within a 150 radius from your home and charge at home. Otherwise is terrible. R1T is a beautiful, awesome truck for...

100% agreed when competing against the current market.

If they can make a generator light enough, need to at least produce 60kW Just to keep up In perfect conditions. More if is winter, rain, ect…. We will see eventually

The fact that Ford is vary vague on when will be available. I wouldn’t put my hopes up. Kyle from out of specs said last Friday podcast, he is coming out with a video soon and he thinks the results wont be what people expect on towing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Only looking / talking EV market 🤦🏻‍♂️

It is definitely a setting issue

Scout initially lowered to 5k capacity, but after feedback is back up again. ( for what I remember)

As the profile of the vehicle gets bigger, the more noticeable noise will happen. Tire profiles also matter.

Is a truck
