I don't. I find a five second quarter mile is as fast as I want.
Isn't the 1/4 time in the ~12 second range? Not 5. The Tesla Model S Plaid runs a 1/4 miles ~9.25 seconds... Rivian is not faster than that -- certainly not 50% faster lol.

sorry, 0-60. Something is very wrong if I'm going 100 mph +

For comparison, here's an example of what it takes just to get under 6 seconds, lol.

"Under that bulged hood lurks a twin-turbo, 8.6-liter V8 that cranks out a massive 4,000 horsepower. No wonder it's able to run the quarter-mile in 5.97 seconds."
