Borrowing the company Rivian for the weekend. If you squint hard enough you get an idea of what an Eruption Green Maverick Tremor might look like. 😁

Probably a fun vehicle to drive. Should be for 80K.

Possibly the dumbest looking front end ever conceived. I still laugh, or cringe, whenever I see one.

People used to remark that the “smiling” Mazda front ends looked like they came right out of a ‘Cars’ cartoon.
Rivians look even goofier.

Too bad, the company started out with a clean slate. They could have hired a struggling California auto designer and hit it out of the ballpark.

I do like that color though. Most of the Rivians around here, and we have a lot of them, sport that shade.

That's cool...

I let JerryRigEverything borrow mine for the weekend while he builds my EV HMMWV.

;)

In all seriousness, those wheels look like a PITA to clean. I had some Methods on a Subaru just like them and after one winter I hated them. Never again.

The front of the Rivian always reminds me of a pig nose. Also EV trucks just don't make sense....

It's not bad from the back or side. However, that front face is something only a mother could love.

I like the way the cab comes down really square to the flat front of the bed. Looks like the Mav in a way. Best feature of both trucks IMHO.

It’s not green, but unlike @Scupking I have found that EV trucks do make sense.
