FIRST R1T MAX PACK ROAD TRIP! MISS GOELECTRIC'S THOUGHTS AFTER 600+ MILES

EV Channels Review

Miss GoElectric shares her initial road trip experiences with the Rivian R1T Max Pack, covering over 600 miles from Michigan to Tennessee. She highlights the Max Pack's extended range as crucial for her lifestyle, despite acknowledging its high cost and the vehicle's current efficiency limitations, particularly with cabin heating. While praising the quiet ride and sound system, she points out significant areas for improvement in Rivian's Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS), noting they lag behind competitors and lack essential features like voice-to-text for messages. The review also touches on the challenges of public charging infrastructure, citing issues with hotel charging stations, and the broader need for better EV education among dealerships and site hosts. Ultimately, she recommends the Max Pack for those with specific range needs and demanding use cases, emphasizing that individual requirements should dictate the purchase decision.
