    Yeah. Sure have. But have you seen one on the trails when you’re out or just at the local brewery?

    There’s plenty that have gone on trails. The underside is smoother than a traditional truck. Not really sure what you’re talking about.

    So hypothetically speaking, you are saying you trust Rivians engineering better for an off-road capable truck over Toyota because they put the battery underneath in harms way but at least gave you the ability to hold your wet wipes and tampons for the lady in your seat storage?
    If you want your rear seat storage that bad, buy a non hybrid.

    Are you special needs? The whole floor of the Rivian is one giant battery.

    Great idea. In addition to stealing a $2000 catalytic converter thieves can steal a $5-7k battery too!

    Am I special needs? How would toyota safely do it like that . Gas powered vehicles have way more going on on the undercarriage . They aren't even using the same type of battery lol

    Rivian is a hybrid. No transmission, driveshaft, exhaust, or fuel tank. I'm sure the BEV Tacoma will have plenty of underseat storage.

    I have not. Have they eliminated that to reduce costs too?

    The battery in the Rivian IS between the frame rails and armoured by a plate to help prevent damage to the batteries.

    Rivian isn't a hybrid, it's a BEV.

    TYpically hybrid batteries are put inside the cabin since most space is taken by ICE components. Turd has no clue what he's talking about. ANother reason he's on the ignore list.
