    Rivian hires new Chief Marketing Officer from Meta/Amazon

    This is why I am bullish on Rivian as an investor (and s-0ā€”ā€”0-n to be owner). I am in high tech leadership and I know these candidates have lots of options. They must see something in Rivian that gives them confidence to join the company. That really reduces my concerns about the viability of...

    Ben Sullins: Rivian R1T After 1 Year - Would I Buy it Again?

    I watched the whole video, and agree itā€™s a mixed bag. I have reservations for both the R1T and S (think I will stick with them over RAM / Stellantis probably). The CarPlay issue seems silly, as does the rust. That looked like from something he had stuck in thereā€¦

    RAM 1500 REV Truck with 500 Miles Range

    Hard disagree if you look at what itā€™s replacing. My Tundra gets 14mpg on the highway and 9-11mpg when towing. Vehicles like this will be a gateway to getting V8 truck owners onto the EV train, and the tech / efficiency will continue to get better (much moreso than ICE is capable of at this...

    RAM 1500 REV Truck with 500 Miles Range

    If I didnā€™t use my Airstream ALL THE TIME (literally 10 weekly trips per year), Iā€™d be sticking with Rivian. Personally, I am worried about Rivian selling a $90k+ lifestyle vehicle in this market. For me, paying $10k more but actually being able to replace my Tundra (instead of it being a...

    RAM 1500 REV Truck with 500 Miles Range

    Just FYI for those who havenā€™t watched the video. Nowhere did they say the 500 mile variant was only in the Tungsten trim. My plan is to get the Laramie edition (which is already nice enough) if they offer it with the 500 mile range option. I donā€™t need 23 speakers. And all the other crap in...

    RAM 1500 REV Truck with 500 Miles Range

    I know this wonā€™t be a popular take on this forum, but those specs are really impressive. I got on the list on SuperBowl Sunday, and am going to keep a close eye on it. There are many users of trucks who simply do not have a viable EV option for whom this opens the door. This meets my use...

    2500 Miles with Trailer in Tow with R1T...Concluded!

    I absolutely think I will get between 130-150 miles of towing range with my R1S based on what I had with my X. Unless you really need 200ish miles of towing, I wouldnā€™t bother with the Max Pack. That being said, I am still weighing R1S vs. T with Max Pack. The only argument I have for the Max...

    2500 Miles with Trailer in Tow with R1T...Concluded!

    Anywhere between 595-800 wh/mile. So Iā€™d get about 110-140 miles of range. It was ā€œfineā€ for my needs. Figure I will get that it slightly better in the R1S. Kind of worried about the two EA stops Iā€™ll have to make between my house in Frisco and my property in Comfort. Seems like an...

    2500 Miles with Trailer in Tow with R1T...Concluded!

    These are my favorite posts. Love me an EV road-trip! Did many in my X and will do a bunch in my R1S whenever it arrives. Safe travels!

    Thank you so much for posting this video! I've been on Rivian Blue + Forest Edge on my R1S config for the past month, but just switched to Limestone + Ocean Coast after watching this. The Limestone R1S looks šŸ”„!!!

    Does anyone know what camping trailer this Rivian R1T is pulling? [Updated: Airstream Basecamp]

    Personally I don't think you need a backup camera. If you practice it will get easier. As far as the range hit goes, yes a 50% drop is what I experienced on my Model X (and others here towing with the R1T state a similar experience). All Electric Family on YouTube, Insta, and Facebook has...

    Road Trip Underway: MI to CO

    @bhopkins I appreciate these types of posts. I am coming from two Teslas and the charging experience on road trips is the only thing that is giving me a little heartburn about turning away from Tesla. Please keep us posted on your journey!

    Does anyone know what camping trailer this Rivian R1T is pulling? [Updated: Airstream Basecamp]

    IMO with an R1T and a BaseCamp 16 there is zero need for a WD / anti-sway hitch. AirStream doesnā€™t even recommend them for that model, and your tow vehicle will be massively capable of towing such a light trailer (and the tow vehicle will weigh more than twice the trailer). Iā€™ve towed my 20X...

    Roadtrip! Portland OR to Northern Wisconsin.

    Your vehicle color / rim combo is beautiful. Iā€™ve configured my R1T / S a million times, and have settled on that combo (S though, not T, I think). Just really classyā€¦
