My friends argument for why the Rivian can't compete with say a Raptor is wheel travel
I can't find that
Anyone seen that number?

Is it? What manufacturers provide this on their model pages?A usual stat for any 4x4
IDK but I can find the TRX & RAPTORIs it? What manufacturers provide this on their model pages?
Don't think that I will have the nerve to go high speedI don't think the Rivian is designed for high speed whoops and jumps like the Raptor. If you want that kind of capability, I'd stick w/ the Raptor, TRX, or certain Bronco models.
Isn't the Rebelle Rally more high-speed desert running? Why say Rivian isn't designed for it if they've actually raced in it?I don't think the Rivian is designed for high speed whoops and jumps like the Raptor.

And the beat the Broncos !!Isn't the Rebelle Rally more high-speed desert running? Why say Rivian isn't designed for it if they've actually raced in it?
I saw a video recently of an R1T traversing some gnarly off-road terrain, and it appeared to be lacking in articulation. OTOH, it has a motor at every wheel and instant torque from 0 rpm. I think it will be quite capable, but don't expect high-speed desert running to be one of its strengths, esp. carrying the weight of those big batteries.With this kind of power I will DEFINITELY have to be careful
But my "friend" lol arguing that even at a crawl the Rivian doesn't have the capability to compete with the Raptor or TRX
Of course it's going to take some head to head competition
But what it comes down to is for what I want to do the Rivian appears to be way more capable than I need
Can't wait to see if it does stick it to the big dogs
No, it's more of a test of navigational skills w/o any technology. They had Bronco Sports (the little ones based on the Escape) and other CUVs that would have been destroyed in high speed running. Show me a video of a Rivian doing what Raptors routinely do - blitzing whoops, big jumps, etc. That doesn't make the Rivian a lesser vehicle (I'm on the list, but have never owned a Raptor), it's just designed w/ a different purpose.Isn't the Rebelle Rally more high-speed desert running?
