TOWING MY RANGE ROVER CLASSIC WITH THE RIVIAN R1T FOR PART 2 OF ITS MECHANICAL RESTORATION

EV Channels Review

This video documents the process of towing a classic Range Rover, affectionately named Judy, using a Rivian R1T for a mechanical restoration. The host details the challenges of preparing Judy, including a dead battery and a previously failed heater core that leaked coolant. The Rivian R1T's onboard air compressor and towing capabilities are highlighted, though a flat trailer tire and a software update for the Rivian add minor complications. The video showcases the process of loading the Range Rover onto the trailer, the subsequent towing experience, and the drop-off at Pikes Peak Rovers. The host expresses excitement for Judy's restoration, hoping for a more reliable outcome than the previous 10 miles driven post-service. The Rivian's performance as a tow vehicle is generally praised, with its charging speed and towing stability noted.
