Been waiting to post this until I had the boat attached to it. Took the boat to winter storage this morning.

Towed like a dream. Instant torque is nice, and a 7.6k lb curb weight helped keep the boat in check. Going to have to get an adjustable hitch. To say the Rivian is taller than the Audi is an understatement!

Didn't get on the interstate, but did get to 60 a few times. I've been planning on 1.3mi/kWh, looks like I wasn't far off.

@2kwik4u, the boat and Rivian look great together! Nice looking truck, although I’m not sure that I like the front end - perhaps it will grow of me as I see more of them in person. I will say the Rivian looks 100% better than the Tesla Cybertruck that I’ve seen running around our small town the last couple of weeks.

Saw you sitting on the fold down hatch, behind the passenger door, in the previous. Is this a storage compartment and is there a hatch on both sides?

Hatch on both sides. Rivian calls it a gear tunnel. Fits a set of golf clubs, or 3-4 camp chairs. Neat feature, not sure if it's more sizzle or steak yet.
