The space no one is talking about is the empty space behind the cab of the Terra. If Rivian can put a gear tunnel there, Scout can put a harvester in there. Then leave the spare under the bed like the Rivian too.
Rivian has room for it under the bed plus a battery but no harvester.
they just have to put the harvester in a better spot. You can’t off-road with no spare.
Apple Car Key, just going to leave this here.
By 2027 I assume both Apple and Android will have robust car key technologies. They should just use that and have a fob as a backup.
I cannot imagine for one second that an EV brand is going to associate itself with anything diesel. That is quite literally the polar opposite of an EV brands ethos.
Coming from a Raptor, I can say that the Rivian electronics (including use of cameras, ACC, rain sensing wipers) make the Ford look like a dinosaur. I wouldnt think about that for more than half a second. There is no comparison.
Tailgate step I do miss that, but the R1T has a lower tailgate so...
I have been thinking the same. Have you seen any interior dimensions? My only real regret with my R1T (coming from a raptor) is the interior shoulder width.
there will be a lot of used R1Ts available by then. But and it’s a big but, as an owner of one, I wouldn’t ever own one of these out of warranty. They are very complex vehicles with a limited service center network. While right now everything is within warranty, if I was out of warranty I would...
solidly checked and the width for Rivian is incorrect. It’s 79.3 without mirrors. The number stated previously was with mirrors folded. I small point but important for some.
The VW EA211 1.5 3cyl would make sense. Can create 95KW idling, without turbo. Well proven in Europe. 50mpg roughly in a small car would mean 10g fuel tank roughly. Starting to make sense . . .
I think youre right and I dont like it. I have a 2020 Mini EV with about 100 mile range and in the winter, that is plugged in every single day or its unusable. Remember you arent going to let the battery get below 15% and not going to charge it over 85% every day, so that actually gives you 70%...
