    Trx to a rivian is a valid compare. For someone who doesn’t like sound in particular as well

    The guy who gets to set up those tests and hit the "send it" button must love life. That looks so fun.

    I stopped at a weigh station with my truck and trailer. I need to stop again with no trailer to get precise numbers but here’s the rough math. Front axle 3440lbs, rear axle 4900lbs and trailer axle 6020lbs. The truck curb weight should be right about 6973lbs (8532lb GVWR minus 1559lb payload rating). Subtracting the stuff in the truck plus myself gives the front two axles a combined weight of 8000lbs meaning a tongue weight of about 1000lbs and trailer weight right about 7000lbs.

    I passed a Rivian on the highway a couple days ago and noticed his bed cover was half closed and it was raining. Probably stuck in that position. :(

    I feel like you are going to make me pay the postage, if you’re wrong, to get my quarter…

    The last time I used a stamp I think they were ....ten cents?

    Nine cents more than my opinion on EVs is worth.

    I saw my first one this weekend at the beginning of a trail.. Ugly is an understatement. I had no idea how expensive they are, and for all that money I'd imagine that there's little to no aftermarket for customization. Not to mention how incapable it seems. Whoever was driving let me go ahead of them and it didn't follow me very long. Trail got pretty rough and it turned around. I imagine this is the "dream truck" for any male with low testosterone.

    Having owned both I’d say it’s more capable off-road than either of my Tacomas.

    Funny cause I often attribute statements like these to people with low self awareness

    Maybe so, but I'm 26 and do frequent out-of-pocket blood panels. I monitor my health, so self-aware is an understatement. I could rant about this subject for days, but it only hurts feelings of people who don't better themselves.

    My point was that was a dumb statement. Unnecessary comment meant to belittle. So I responded in kind

    Lol. Wtf? This is one of the funniest posts I've read on this thread.

    Even funnier because you seem serious about this.

    Hey, I just took a test and it said I was smart, so there is no way I could make a dumb statement…
