Rivian R1T R1S Genoa Peak, Lake Tahoe on 21" roadies IMG_2994


Not the most demanding trail but the truck did exceptionally well. Very surprised by the suspension. Aired down to 40 PSI then realized a day later the manual says we can go down to 31- was just scared of a pinch flat. Front cam was super clutch to clear the sharper rocks. Just breached 2k miles on the truck and loving it!

I was just there for a month as well. Just got home Sunday. Saw a couple of Rivians around throughout that time. Maybe I say you...lol

Great photos. Not sure you really need to air down for rocks/gravel except for a softer ride. I was on dirt, gravel and smallish rock last weekend in my 21s and didn't air down...

Nice. Yea I dont think it was necessary either, we just didn't know what was coming up so we let a little out at a clearing.

Nice. Did you go up the fire road way (from the North) or the skinny, rockier way (from the South)? Last time I was up there these guys were using the Northern route!

@Chewy734 & @ealberton ... I live in Sacramento but my dad lives in Tahoe. Every time I'm in Tahoe visiting him there's the highest concentration of Rivians there than any other place I've ever seen. The Truckee RAN, in Tahoe, is another place where the chargers are almost always packed. Our local SC says that they deliver to Tahoe all the time and they concur that Tahoe has more Rivians on the road than anywhere else.

It's not surprising that you spotted quite a few while up there.

Yeah, the Truckee RAN was busy when I charged there. Apparently a lot of people make it up that way frequently. Honestly, I want to go again and this time relax and stay for longer!

Surprisingly, I saw only one other Rivian in the Yosemite area despite being there for 3 days.

I counted 12 one day during winter. I have a twin ( black T) parent at our middle school and the HS (N Tahoe) has a faculty member with an S. We've got and S as well, so we are definitely helping saturate the Tahoe Rivian market!

Almost a year ago, I took my 2 day old T onto the bottom part of the Rubicon w/ 21's.....it was terrifying. It performed fantastic, but I was certain I was going to get a flat. We now have 20's on both.
