I saw that today at Mineral wells state park. Woman next to it had a shaved head. Wasn’t a big TT, but I wonder how far she could get in it.

Minutes down the road I suspect. At least based on the Ford Lightnings performance.

Was it an airstream? If so I saw it yesterday in dripping springs.
I saw it and thought “ what is the range on that thing?”
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Mighta asked her for the info. Genuinely curious as well given the reports on the lightning range being less than usable when under a load.

Amazon most of their delivery trucks are Rivian in my area, must work pretty good.
I have a fulfillment center up the road from me, I see hundreds of them going down the street early in the morning, and the Amazon Van in my neighborhood are all Rivian

I was gonna ask her for specifics on towing with the Rivian, but when we walked back by there she had already hooked up and left. I assumed she was from Austin.

I'd own a Rivian...they are fast as hell, look good and could save a lot of money for an "in and around town" vehicle...save money is a relative term, meaning if you were going to spend that much on a vehicle anyway and already had something to drive longer distances. Not going to lie, I'm intrigued...

So the real world report showed a range of about 120-130 miles for the rivian while towing a small camper. Pretty much in line with the lightning.

How long to re-charge? Hours?
I have driven the pick-up, 800+ HP...quick as hell!
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Yeah for just an around town kind of thing, its ok. But I couldn't even get up to my place in OK with a load and reliably turn around and come home.
In the report, it said using 110V charger, it takes 4 days...

Here's my question about any electric vehicle, what will they be worth when you have 80,000 or 90,000 miles on them? Who would buy them? From what I have read, batteries are very expensive to replace. You can't just replace the batteries and expect to have a brand new vehicle.

I have driven my neighbors SUV, as far as a vehicle, its very very nice, second only to Lincoln Nav black. Very unique driving experience, braking is weird. Like them but way to fragile to be part of my family
