Hello again.
After selling Treebeard I bounced around between vehicles a bit. I had a lot of fun and learned a few things but never really loved another vehicle like I loved my FJ60. I still don’t (and never will) but this Rivian R1T comes damn close. It’s a wildly different truck, of course, and I love it for altogether different reasons.
As of today I’ve had "Treeline" for exactly one month and already have some good adventures to write up. I’m expecting this thread to be a lot less “help, how do I fix this” and a lot more “check this out”, "that was fun", and “charging doesn’t suck that much, actually.” For now, here’s the build so far:

As of today I’ve had "Treeline" for exactly one month and already have some good adventures to write up. I’m expecting this thread to be a lot less “help, how do I fix this” and a lot more “check this out”, "that was fun", and “charging doesn’t suck that much, actually.” For now, here’s the build so far:
- Truck
- 2022 Rivian R1T Adventure Trim (quad motor)
- Glacier White exterior, Forest Edge interior
- Off-road package (20” wheels, reinforced underbody shield, full-size spare)
- Full XPEL Stealth PPF to self-heal pinstripes
- Megawatt Sliders
- iKamper Skycamp Mini 3.0 mounted over the bed on Rivian crossbars
- Midland MXT275 under the rear seat with a Midland MXTA25 mounted on the hood
- Dometic CFX3 35 in the bed powered by an Ecoflow Delta Mini
- OEM 20” all-terrain wheels with… well, I’m up to three different sets of tires already
- Original: Pirelli Scorpions (I wanted something stronger)
- Next: Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT (a rock slashed two sidewalls near Mazourka Peak)
- Now: Toyo Open Country AT3 EV (hoping for the best)
