That's the best color rivian offers for sure. Love the soft grey.
I like all of the colors, but ocean coast is makes the cabin feel more open.
BTW I Love your content, and thanks for commenting!
Right as the video started I thought "man that's a pretty color". I had my heart set on blue, but I may have second thoughts. lol I'm already a fan of Toyota's Cement Gray.
There is no other vehicle like this. I love mine! Thanks Duke!
It's one of a kind! Thanks for commenting!
Looking good! Thanks for sharing, boss. Rivian is going to be my choice after lots of considerations.
Thanks! You're welcome! it's a great choice.
Hey Duke, the only negative thing about the Rivian is that it doesn't pair well with m&ms. I would transition to beef jerky as soon as possible. Happy anniversary!
😆🤣 Thanks mate!
The Duke is right , Rivian's regular OTA software updates continue to make a great vehicle even better. For me, this is one of the best, unexpected, benefits of owning a Rivian.
Thank you for your honest review. You put off this feeling of being the single most genuine RUclipsr I’ve ever watched!! Subbed and look forward to more awesome content!
I appreciate that!🙏 Thanks for commenting!
Duke! I should be picking up my new R1T in limestone in a week or so at the Chicago SC. Your videos are part of the reason I went for it. My first EV- can’t wait. Coming from a 2022 Raptor.
Get ready for acceleration you won't believe. Congrats!
That's awesome! Nice color choice, and you will love the acceleration and the handling.
Thanks for sharing!
Always great, honest and enthusiastic content from the Duke, makes me even happier to be an R1T owner myself!
Thank You! I really appreciate it! 🙏
Great video, Curtis..thank you for sharing your thoughts, just saw the R2, It think I am leaning towards that vehicle. I like your humble and relaxed demeanor! God bless! :)
Great review, I just reserved my R1T and cannot wait!
Hope you enjoy it!
Currently driving a prius.
Thought i was Prius for life.
But loving the R3
That R3 is nice!
I love your energy in the video. The smile tells you really love the car
Thanks so much!
Been excited about these since the beginning
They are underrated for sure!
Had my R1T for 1.5 years. Agree with your enthusiasm for the vehicle. Simply Outstanding! You don't appear to be into off-roading but another great feature is Camp Mode which will automatically level the vehicle for your roof-top tent. What I'm anxiously waiting for is the NACS adapter. This will make road-trip charging stressless. Biggest disappointment is Rivian never followed through on the Camp Kitchen. Ride, interior quality, acceleration, handling on and off road...OMG!
The Rivian is so awesome that if I made a video with all the things I like about it would be 3 hours long😆. I did make a video on camp mode, and getting access to the Superchargers will just make it even better.
Thanks for commenting!
Love the truck and your positive energy. Reserved the R2 and hope Rivian thrives.
Thanks! I reserved 2, and I can't wait 🤗
Thanks for your review! I am looking into getting one and I needed longer term reviews by users on how the vehicle holds up
You're welcome!
Just hit 1 year with mine too! Totally agree with everything you've said. Love this truck more than the day I got it. Still need to get a bed cover... was waiting for the Gear shop... but maybe I'll look again elsewhere. Any you had your eye on?
RJ didn't invite you to the R2/R3/R3X launch?! You're Rivian's #1 fan and Jerry Rig follows you. Can't wait for your breakdowns of these new vehicles.
I'm a small fish in a big pond. I'm sure they have no ideal who I am, but it would have been nice to see them in person.
Thanks for commenting!
Reserved my R2 - very excited
I reserved two🤗
We got our R1S back in September 2023 and we’re never going back to gas vehicles. Everything is great especially for early reservation holders prices. They should have the driver plus to work using lane guides instead of just ‘mapped’ roads.
Hopefully they will get there soon with Driver plus, and I will never go back to gas again either!
Thanks for sharing!
New content drop is well appreciated Duke! Love that you take in follower feedback. Sidenote, just used your EVBASE code to order my R1T running boards (was $479 after your hookup!!!).
One more sidenote, I tried to use the QR code to do a “super thanks” on RUclips but it didn’t seem to route me to the right spot). Lemme know if you use patreon and happy to support the content you produce!…EDIT: found out how to support in the mobile app (thank you again for supporting the community)!
Love that ya also got an R1S. I just got a R2 for the GF! Looking forward to early 2026!

That's awesome! $479 is a great price for those running boards, and I really appreciate the super thanks, and that you are getting value out of the content🙏
Solid just on the Wing Stop benefit.
Yes it is😆
Thanks!
Thank you!🙏
Beautiful color combo on that truck! I have two children, how are the back seats if you put two kids in back with some sports gear? Can you get three kiddos in the back?
Thanks! Yes, you can get three children in the back seat of the Rivian R1T. I have two, and one is in a car seat, and they fit just fine. As far as sports gear is concerned, you can store it in the front trunk, gear tonneau, or under seat storage area. This truck has way more storage options than an gas truck.
Last night we did an update for our Rivian for Superchargers. I did not see how to verify my mailing address for the adapter yet.
Thanks for the info!
Great!!!!!
👍
Ah lefty. I was waiting for you to switch hands 😂.
One of the concerns is the overheat-limp mode problems explained by some owners. Have you experienced this? I think you have to drive it fast for a minute to experience this.
No, I have not experienced this, or heard of anyone having this issue.
What’s your take on rivians future? I have a reservation for the R1T but I’m worried with rivians stock and them losing so much money per vehicle they might go out of business. Whats your opinion?
I'm also interested in thoughts. My opinion fwiw, is that Rivian's vision and products are too good to fail. They will always have investors willing to support them.
trying to decide if I should get a R1T..
The R1T is the best daily driver truck, and the most versatile vehicle period IMO.
Get a Tesla Cybertruck and give us a 1 year review.
Cybertruck is nice, but I don't have a use case for it. Great showpiece though.
@@thedukeofmanville Do it for the RUclips channel views. Imagine a Rivian and a Cybertruck in the garage.
co worker Tesla got t-boned , $ 28,000 in repairers and insurance raised up $ 1,000
His insurance went up when someone else was at fault 🤔 I have never had that happen, and if so, it's time for a new insurance carrier.
Had a minor front end collision in our Model 3 and total cost of repairs was $13,000. Hopefully these new car companies can reduce part prices, but where's the motivation?
