(Breaking this post up into 2 parts.. since i didn't wan the mod's to re-clasify this post as 'Movies/TV')..

Ewan McGregor loves taking long motorcycle trips... and he turns them into 'docu-series' so other people will pay for them 🙂

Somehow he was able to talk Rivian into giving him two of their new electric trucks for 'support vehicles' on his latest ride (13k miles from the tip of south America to LA over 100 days). The problem was, Rivian hadn't built any R1T's yet 🙂

In the show, the first two production Rivian trucks get shipped to south America ~4 days after being built (and they are defiantly still early prototypes)... but WOW do they look fantastic.



Slight Spoiler.. range anxiety is a real thing in the 2nd episode 🙂

If you want to see how the Rivian hold up you can watch the show on Apple TV+ (You can also see how some of the first Harley-Davidson EV motorcycles cope with the conditions).

IMHO.. Rivian is going to be sell a ton of these trucks.
