No doubt. I just think Hydrogen will be a more long term viable renewable resource than batteries. Biofuels may eventually pull into the mix as well.The world will still run on fossil fuels for decades to come. Period.

And we have had people on this forum with catastrophic engine failure on their late model 200s. Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal.Thanks for your feedback, dingledong. The Rivian is a piece of junk.
Literally 30 seconds of searching. Written by a snowflake no less!

Looks like the Rivian is actually smiling. So when's the Tundra front axil swap going to happen?
Cool toys.
Has a 112" wheel base tooCool toys.
Nothing against the Rivian (except it's goofy headlights), but I am paying attention to the Vanderhall Brawley UTV's development. Once I move out to TN, you can register and drive UTV's there as long as you don't drive them on state roads (you can cross them). All electric, 4 motors, 35" tires, 22" of suspension travel,18" of clearance and 90 degree approach and departure angles. Enclosed....A/C and heat. Very interesting. Pre orders are all sold out.
For short halls. Looks like fun.

I know a lot of guys putting $50K into their UTV/Side by Sides, or $20K on tricked out golf carts. I don't really get that but toys are toys, and as far as toys go, this thing does look pretty fun.Cool toys.

Hmmm…go to 10 min mark….
I am super excited to see how the R1S performs on the trail. My LCs aren't going anywhere, but I do have an order for the R1S as well!
Yea.looks like they did their homework. It isn't your normal, get dirty, dusty, wet and muddy utv. You got heated seats, ac, an electric motor for each wheel, ecrawl , ecrab mode, etank, and esteer mode.Has a 112" wheel base too

Well could be some true. But Joe Rogan and guests are about as reliable a source of information as the weekly world news….I also saw this interview that states that most of our cobalt (key mineral in lithium batteries) is coming from slave labor in the Congo.
Please tell me this is not really happening.

Now, if Toyota brings us the LC300 GR with locking diffs you can bet your ass that I'll be selling the R1S for the LC300GR.
I’ve spent quite a bit of time in the R1S and R1T on the trail, and they’re not only incredibly capable but super quiet, comfortable and easy to drive. They are the only thing I’d choose over a 200, but I still won’t sell mine!
Love Land Cuisers and still own a 40 & 100, but absolutely no regrets … one of the most amazing vehicles I’ve ever owned

Yeah this. Let’s see how these things hold up on the long run. I suspect not well.What happens to all these trucks if Rivian goes bankrupt? Will another company pick up service/spare parts manufacturing?
