Rolling in an R1T with RJ. I can't tell you all how special this trip and this ride was to me.




More rolling with RJ!

Please forgive the low camera angle, but I was trying not to block the rear passengers' view by having my phone front and center the whole time. Out of courtesy to them and RJ, I stopped recording. Luckily, the camera in my head still has all of the images. It comes with having CDO.

Not gonna lie, I found myself permagrinning as I watched through these videos! Thank you for this footage, Duck! I would absolutely love to visit the factory and mess about on these tracks and trails if they make it an option.

Duck, that's a great video! A couple of questions... So when you come to the top of the hill and you can't see what is in front of you due to the drop-off. Did Rivian not put in a forward/frontal camera to allow you could "see" video on the main screen of what is in front of you before you say, drive off a cliff?

Secondly, every picture or video that we see of RJ, he has his knees in the dash. Like, super uncomfortable driving position. RJ is not that tall at what 6'2". Did he just have the seat pulled way forward?

I'm also 6'2"+ and prefer a similar driving position, maybe not quite so close, but closer than a lot of people shorter than me, for sure. I wouldn't read too much into it.

I'm more excited from watching your videos than from anything Rivian has put out in the last year!

100% agree. The giggling in the background and the longer threads of RJ just having a blast with the truck is a hell of a lot more entertaining than the instagram videos Rivian has been putting out. I've definitely been grinning watching these and his interview.
