Curious how people feel about taking these trucks off road. I've been holding out on replacing my 4runner until I could get an electric off-road capable vehicle, and here it is. But I'll admit I'm a little nervous about a battery pack being the first line of defense when we are on rocky trails. The rivians have more clearance than my 4runner, but if I look at the bottom of my vehicle there are definitely some battle wounds.
The shielding definitely seems legit, I think I've seen some quotes about holding the weight of the vehicle on like 2 square inches or something. But there's a difference in holding the weight and hitting a rock at higher speeds...
Realistically Im thinking I'll just take it slow and not push it. Have some more caution when I'm not sure I can easily clear an obstacle. But it will be interesting to see these in the field.
