5:19 I love how the entire light bar diminish when the turn signal is activated, and then it fully appears for the switchback. So cool!
My sister-in-law kept saying she was seeing a LEGO-looking truck. I had no idea what she was talking about until she screamed ‘there it is’ one day while driving home from Jungle Jim’s. My ears are still bleeding.
Was not expecting to see Jungle Jim's in the comments! Hello, fellow Ohioan.
At one million subscribers, their daughter gets her own microphone. At that time, the microphone manufacturer will offer a clipless handheld option.
Everyone on the Ridgeline: It’s not a truck! It’s not a bed on frame! Hidden Storage! 🙄
Everyone on the R1T: Amazing!🤩 Does it come in yellow?!
Time to give kiddo the mic when she speaks
The Rivian looks great...ready to trade in the Bronco?
As a random passers-by, you guys do a great job.
Nice unicorn storage tunnel
Keep it up! Diggin’ the family reviews.
I wish to have it like this.... thanks for the video, Micah and family.☺
That was impressive 👍
There are innovations that I have only seen here.
Lots of engineers got together..some watched cartoons.
....well done mates 👍
“Some watched cartoons” 😹
@@Eviedish All manner of things are possible in cartoons. Imagination leads innovation. This EV was re, imagined they went further than others.
Bravo 👏
😂😂😂
Great review. Love to have a comparison video of the R1T and the Lightening.
I miss seeing Micah's reviews on KBB.
Sadly I stopped watching KBB because they lost Micah (and Zach Vlasuk!)
I think it's about time you mic up the little one, she has good things to say!
That maybe the first electric truck that I may consider driving. The range maybe enough for me.
Have it. Amazing.
Currently own an Quad motor R1S as our family vehicle. Next up is going to be an R1T for myself! Loved the review, as I am looking to getting a dual motor.
You’re aiming for a faster quad family vehicle than yourself a dual? Better take the quad!
I think long range (here large battery pack) is a red herring for almost everyone, with the caveat “if you have the ability to charge at home.” This is probably difficult to intuit or believe until you’ve owned EVs, but it’s true.
Great video!😸
agree, the front seats should be more later support to better embrace at turns
Fan of the rivian brand their overall design and fun little functional quirks.
Nice unicorn storage tunnel)))
can the gear panels open to reveal the 40 mike mike tubes to clear the path out in front while driving?
Thanks for the review! I've been considering buying one of these (dual motor version). Yeah, the Cybertruck was a big flip and Elon hasn't admitted it yet.
Great review! Hope Rivian stays in business long enough that my lottery ticket hits.
talk about how the truck bed stores dirt salt etc under the truck bed
That is a problem. They should engineer in some drainage to that cavity.
Dirt isn't really a problem because I don't really think these are meant to haul loose soil, but the roadsalt? If there is a cavity it can build in, it will find it and eat your car inside out. Amazing how many vehicles I've seen (including some of my own) where the paint looks prestine until you poke a finger through it, and the rust that used to be sheetmetal underneath. Rockers on those old S10 Blazers were good for that.
The Rivians are vehicles i never get tired of seeing. They are innovative and perfect for the active lifestyle/outdoorsman types. I really hope the company makes it as I just enjoy seeing them on the road.
I would put my money where my mouth is, but even the base price is far outside my reach. Hopefully, the R2 series is a bit closer to my budget while maintaining the same appeal.
I see you're flying with James Baker thursday :)
It does sometimes feel like they’re trying too hard to be a 4WD Patagonia vest, but my biggest worry is for their survival. Because overall it is a really compelling product but I’m afraid that they won’t be around long enough to fulfill any warranty claims.
That Rivian is so well thought out. They even put a large enough cubbyhole to stick a few stuffed pink ponds in there. 😂 Yes, I do like the Rivian. Now I'm going to have to go to their website to build one to show to my wife. 11:55
I would use a R1T but it's about 50 % too expensive. Also I don't want to wait 45 minutes to refuel
Some cool features but too much like Tesla (no coast, no blended braking, tablet on wheels). Evie's cactus top makes the video completely worth the time though.
Kiddo needs a microphone. 😊
I like how you review this as a family- your wife driving, your daughter climbing in and out. PLEASE give your daughter a mic for her on-camera comments. I appreciate the reviews
I'm so glad I got mine at the intro Price, quad, and extra features, all with the 7,500 tax rebate.
Yes, I'm bragging. BUT you really gotta take into account the MUCH bigger insurance price tag that comes with it.
I'm curious. Why would two people find "only two cupholders up front" a problem?
I can take this one. Probably not an issue for “daily,” but my wife and I often each have a coffee and a water bottle. 4 vessels for two people.
@@ericanderson1753Nailed it!
👍@@ericanderson1753
One cup holder for whatever I'm drinking now, the other for whatever I was drinking yesterday and forgot to remove.
When we hit bottle 3 rolling around on the floor is when all 3 come out, hate loose things on the floor.
I wish they would offer a cheaper version of this. That's the problem with electric vehicles, it's all or nothing.
Rivian is about to reveal their R2 model. It's a smaller, cheaper SUV. Hopefully it hits the mark price wise.
Thanks!
That is so kind. Thanks for the support!!
Very quick 🙀
Functional? Adjust the heat to legs only, then adjust the mirrors, then change the radio to your favorite AM sports radio station. Go (timer starts…)!
As an owner of one who’s had it for more than 2 days, I can do all of this in 20 seconds…..but…why would I since it’s saved to my profile when I set it up. And yeah I know it doesn’t have an AM radio but FM and HD radio is plenty and you can always use TuneIn for specific stations anyway. sorry but no one (that I know) that owns one is pining for an AM radio dial.
:( Along with the Bronco... another vehicle we don't (and likely never will) get here in far flung New Zealand...
Liked the look from the start, but lots of reliability problems, I've heard & since I have a huge range of choices of $100k pickups....
No issues at all with my dual R1T. Best vehicle I've ever had!
According to CR, but they don't reveal their methodology. And Rivian has the #1 Customer Satisfaction rating, which lines up more with what I hear from actual customers.
I wish I could afford one of these
Snuffy eyelashes on a Rivian’s headlights … would have been a great closing graphic! #snuffalupagousIsReal
Missed opportunity!! 👏🏻😹
@@EviedishNot sure if the Rivian guys would approve ... then again I have it on good authority that Snuffy enjoys rock crawling, so it could be a match made in heaven
I don't get the multiple references preferring coast mode. Is the regenerative braking that intrusive?
Nope. Regen is great
Not at all. I have my regen set to high 100% of the time and MUCH prefer the feel of regenerative one-pedal driving now. When I drive and have to coast an ICE vehicle, it feels weird to me now and much more inconvenient having to move back and forth between two pedals.
Overall feel like a very small cabin.
Mechanical locking diff front and back ? If not , they F**ked up big time .
No CarPlay or Android means it’s not even an option for me. I love the Rivian and would have bought one already if it wasn’t for that.
But you don’t need those things at all. You can’t navigate a charging route with either of those options. It’s far better to use the in car Nav because it’s connected to the cars batteries and other systems. Everything else you just use your phone for anyways - which is what CarPlay is in the end.
I don't miss CarPlay or Android at all. And I really like the Alexa integration since we're an Alexa household and Amazon Music subscribers.
The Rivian R1T is pretty cool. Much more so than that other common EV (whisper Tesla).😊
Coasting is not more efficient. If you coasted you'd lose all that opportunity to regenerate power. The regenerative braking takes a few days to get used to, but I *much* prefer the regenerative one-pedal driving experience now .
If your intention is to slow down, then of course you’re absolutely right it’s more efficient to regen and convert the kinetic energy back into electrical energy for use later rather than using the friction brakes to generate heat. I think I know what Micah was trying to say though. For example if coasting gets you to exactly where you want to be, like if the vehicle would roll and naturally run out of momentum at a red light, using regen means you’d stop short of the light and you’d have to accelerate a little to get to the light, you’d end up using a bit more energy because the kinetic to electrical conversion and vice versa have losses. I know it’s a specific scenario but I think that’s what Micah had in mind. Also to your point, you can still coast with one-pedal drive, you just have to find that exact point in the accelerator travel. It takes some skill and getting used to though.
We love our family.............
RIVIAN IS NOT GETTING ENOUGH CREDIT. THE R1S is baddddassss
She talks like Zelda Rubinstein from Poltergeist
😂
Seriously, no Apple car play? That’s a deal killer
7:36 Who edited in engine sounds when accelerating? lol, it's an EV! Or does actually make that sound when accelerating from the outside?
Funny. That’s actually the sound of our Bronco where the cameras are mounted.
@@MicahMuzio oh haha, that makes way sense!
The interior, profile and rear end design is great but the front end design is grotesque enough to sway me from buying it. Maybe gen 2 will be the ticket🤷🏻♂️
There is not a chance in hell that they’re changing the front look of the vehicle. It is iconic and if you looked at the R2 and RV reveal, you would realize that they are all the same in the front.
Ya lost me at $98,000
Yeah. That's the #1 reason we won't be buying an R1T.
still unaffordable for most Americans
Absolutely. Hopefully Rivian's new R2 model is properly affordable.
The headlights are hideous cat lady headlights. Other than that, the look is perfect. Too bad the headlights ruin it.
That must be why I like them so much!
I still really like the looks, and still really don't like the functionality
3:10 - was that a trailer for your OnlyFans ASMR channel?
And it is expensive. Don't forget the company still in the negatives and has yet to profit.
Over priced. Rich family only!!
Is the worst reliability in the entire automobile industry also included for free? 😂
So I've heard...😢😢
Yet highest customer satisfction rating.
@@gerrylum A lot of our neighbors have these Rivians. They spent so much money on them that they feel the need to defend the purchase even when they admit all the problems. Range Rover owners do the same thing! 🤣
