The R1T is a really cool vehicle, and I really like all the features. Is anyone concerned about the reliability, especially the long term reliability of this new vehicle? I want to support the adoption of this truck, and I want it to succeed, but some of the new technology makes me a little nervous. For instance, the truck will have a lot of microprocessors, a unique suspension system, and Iām interested in the max battery pack that sounds like it hasnāt been developed yet. Motor trend, in a recent review, discussed the suspension that works like no other. According to Motortrend, it actually works a lot like the suspension of the McLaren 720S in that it includes hydraulic cross-linking of the adaptive dampers. The Rivian's setup also shares the concept of using ride-height-adjustable air springs. Can anyone comment on the reliability of this technology?
I am interested in an EV truck. The Ford Lightening is too big for me, but Ford has been around a lot longer and will certainly have more service centers. Do you think the Ford lightening would be more reliable? Iām just not interested in the ev hummer or cbertruck. My current vehicles are old. The Saab is 32 and the VW is 17, and both have been incredibly reliable. Iām just not accustomed to all this new technology, even though I support it. I just donāt want to spend a lot on something that isnāt reliable.
Iām interested in your thoughts.
