I would like to see a “Boat Launch” test. Ease of use, handling, stopping (since most boat trailers use surge brakes) and even X factors like how good is the design to help you self launch a boat. Use a couple of different boats… a jet ski vs a large bow rider with a multiple axel trailer. I love the Rivian, but one pedal driving is NOT a good thing when backing down a boat ramp in my opinion.
@Michael379248 ай бұрын
Factors for the test: Visibility when pulling (mirrors and cameras) Ease of backing down the ramp - single jet skis are a challenge in any pickup Ease of controlling a large boat / trailer down the ramp Slippage when recovering a boat… that first move up the ramp when the boat is first floated on Handling with big trailer/boat (same course, obstacles across all test trucks, same trailer/boat combo)

Dunno about in the Rivian but in my Ioniq 6 the one-pedal (iPedal) can be turned off - it does not even stay in operation after you switch off, but will default to Level 3 regen. I can set regen to zero if I wish.
@Michael379248 ай бұрын
@@petesig93 the closest you can get (in a Rivian) to disabling regen is the Snow drive mode. In general, I like one pedal driving. But, there are just a few exceptions where the “old way” might be safer. Backing a 7000 pound boat trailer down a boat ramp into salt water in a 7000 pound electric truck, tapping the accelerator to make it go feels all wrong. Your foot should be firmly planted on the brake (in this one case). In Rivian’s defense, this could be in a future software update one day… Boat Launch mode… only works in reverse at low speeds, initiated by pressing the brake and activating the mode in reverse, simulates an “idle” speed in reverse so you can ease up off the brake to make it go. No need to shift your foot from brake to accelerator back and forth.

@@michaelsmithers4900 I have a 2023 F-150 Lighting Lariat, extended range. I had 700 lbs in the truck bed, and a 5 x 10 enclosed "V" shaped trailer (1,200 lbs empty) towed behind it, but I was carrying about 1,500 lbs of lumber and building material inside. I lost 44% of range, which included driving an average of 110 km/h, a/c on, with about 600 lbs (2 people, 2 large dogs) inside the cab. I was driving from Calgary, Alberta Canada to Revelstoke BC, in a very mountainous region. Planned out my trip, and it worked very well. Lots of power to pass, comfortable and the cabin is very quiet, even with the road noise. On another note, I had driven the truck between Calgary AB and Edmonton AB in -39C (-38.2F) and -60C (-76F) with the windchill. While the battery lost 53% efficiency do to the cold, and my range dropped over 60%, it worked fine charging at a mid-way-point.

Often range is thought to be static but it’s actually extremely variable due to multiple factors. One considerable factor is wind resistance at high speeds. To that end people should understand that if they are concerned about range (being less than distance to destination) they can easily extend their range by slowing down. That goes double for towing a bulky trailer.

And that’s it.

I, for one, am a guy with a light use-case. I've been getting by with an SUV for years. The things I need to know are how much construction tools you can fit in the frunk, how well it carries 8ft lumber and 4x8 sheet stock, how far it goes with a non-commercial trailer holding half a ton, and how efficiently it does those things in terms of power usage, in roughly that order.

Pretty excited for this! I second the 10% challenge....predict the Silverado to win that. Maybe also do some sort of cargo comparison and add in the EV9 to compare truck vs SUV.

Awesome video Out Od Spec. I would be so interested in seeing these trucks maximum payload in their beds. Somtimes it just makes more sense to use the pickup truck bed over a trailer. Can't wait to your test videos and happy trucking!

Would be great to hear more about how you feel in the cabin. View, comfort, ease, handling, safety, steering, and overall atmosphere . Thank you and look forward.

A payload test would be great to see how a similar load would fit in the bed for each, and then, how it would impact the range. Would also like to see them off road to compare the dirt capability.

Ideas for testing . 1. how to determine which is the most good looking truck ,?? Side view , front view , overall view . 2.Perhaps , get a group of young adults say 10 to 16 in age , set them free on the trucks ,and give them proper tasks to complete , ask them to do mini reviews , but they have to back it up and give reasons why or there reviews will be scrapped. See which truck they gravitate too. Possible tasks , a.reverse up to a trailer and hitch up . b.parallel park c. perpendicular park d. load two bicycle in the bed. e.install childs seat f. load a flat screen tv box , while carrying 3 kids home from school simulation. g. kind of technical but change the front brake pads. h. do all the above tasks with two seperate groups , half girls , half boys , observe which truck the two different groups gravitate too. i a interior cleaning task , which is the easiest to clean out . j. simulate a flat tire , which truck is the easiest to change a spare wheel. k. a makeout simulation, which is most suitable for courting couples after the movies.. l.which has the best setup for getting in and out of on a repeated basis , imagine 5 livestock gates in a row , have to pass through 5 gates , getting in and out as pass thru the gates open and shutting gates as pass thru each one , which truck has the best setup for that sequence.
