A. Nice quick review
B. So.... does everyone who is buying these trucks look like Models for the North Face Catalog.........:CWL:
Rivian owners will also be sporting Yeti coolers, Costa sunglasses, and extra hoppy IPA’s.

I believe that since all is electronically controlled…that we should eventually be able to customize our drive settings.
It's definitely possible, whether they give us access to do it is an entirely different question.

He sees me on YouTube, and we got to drive in Normal before the initial First Mile event there.
Great! I'm glad you got to drive. Thanks Skyote and I'll watch the video.

I hope they uncouple these as well, OR allow us to create our own custom modes. I'd like the "sport" steering and throttle mapping available in All Purpose mode!
Well said: I agree !00%. One option computer integrated the other custom/manual.

My partner Nick and my best friend Jess just wrapped up our test drive at the Sonoma Raceway and god damn... this truck is incredible. A couple of my quick observations:

  • The sound is outrageously good. We bumped it to 4/5ths max volume and it was crazy good.
  • Screen responsiveness was acceptable, and much better than I thought it was going to be. I'll upload a video.
  • We hit 81 very quickly even though they only wanted me to go 60 ?
  • Space is super good. Much more room than my 2016 4Runner - and in the back according to my copilots.
  • They kinda very purposefully didn't have any of the tonneau covers working haha they were blocked by something in the bed on each truck.
  • Seat heaters in the back left and right seats surprised my friend.
  • The drive was sublime. Honestly. Jesus.
I'll answer questions if you have them! Sold my 4Runner yesterday so crossing my fingers really, really hard that my truck comes by end of November as promised!


Hi. Happy campers here ☺

Are we talking the acclaimed restaurant or the Guerneville summer bacchanal? I have a weekend place in West Sonoma, will be on the lookout...
