Love the comments - the screen clearly says "game changer" and "first ever", yet people are guessing variants of the Tundra and Silverado. Sigh. I certainly hope it's the R1T!

Well, Ford made an SUV out of the Mustang. Maybe a Corvette Truck? The internet would lose their shit if they made an el camino style ev truck.

LOL. That's pretty awful. It will surely be at least the Hummer or F150 Lightning!

They had a blog where the Russian guy said that they've contacted Rivian multiple times, but they haven't answered.

To be fair, the 2022 silverado reveal is tomorrow.
And GM said a month ago that they will contact people on 8th to get ready for the reveal. I am fairly sure as well that it is GM twins.

Fair enough - I suppose it could be argued somehow that it is a "gamechanger", but what is it the "first ever" of (apart from first ever 2022 silverado)? Edit: never mind, I missed the memo about an EV silverado :D.

Highly doubt its Rivian. Most likely F-150 Lightning.

I think it's the Silverado. Can't be a coincidence that sep 9th is the date the embargo is lifted for that truck.

I really hoping its not an ICE truck... But that would not be a game changer.

This YouTube quote sums it up perfectly:
The last time TFL used "game changer" it was a Tacoma SR5 Trail with a locking diff.
aka clickbait. Looks like it worked, look at us all discussing this! I hope to be proven wrong of course :)
