Tesla fanboy mad at Rivian for beating Tesla to the pick up market? His day job is "Teslanomics".

Thinking of a Rivian as the "family wagon" seems a bit biased considering Rivian bills itself as off road adventurer. Having said that, the smaller Rivian would see the perfect fit vs. the larger F150 and Silverado and the bizarre "LandMaster" Tesla thing for family into outdoor recreation.

OMG I'm not even going to watch that. "Family wagon" applies to the Model Eggs and the Model Why; maybe to the Model 3rog as well. The only car Tesla makes that's not a family wagon is the Model S, which I respect (modulo the yoke). The R1 is as badass as the G-Wagen (S) or a Rubicon (T) ... Teslas family wagons don't come close.

Quite a statement. My Model S has rear jump seats. It doesn't get any more family wagon than that. Name another car with rear facing jump seats that is not a family wagon.

Are there any other cars with rear facing jumps seats. And only small kids can fit in them and crazy unsafe for kids in rear end collisions which are the most common.

I think of those as suicide seats. I guess I should have caveated with being inside the car. The side facing ones in SUVs don’t count either.

inside the car, in the wagon area where your kid can properly play - can that big rig stop in time?

@bensullins after spending time with the R1T has it changed at all how you would spec your truck?
