Hate is a strong word, sometimes though... it fits. Start eating healthier with Huel HERE: my.huel.com/jerryrigjune Huge thanks to Huel for sponsoring this video (Cookies and cream is the best) I have driven my Rivian R1T hard. Ive used it as a work truck - and pushed it to the limits. Does the Rivian R1T work like a truck should? Is the Rivian R1T a good Electric Truck? Today we find out the answers after driving the R1T for more than a year, and more than 10,000 miles.

You can definitely take off the lower panel to clear out that dirt. I just started as a rivian tech and we take that panel out for many service procedures. I can’t tell you if that will mess with your warranty, so call up your local service center. Also, being in the warranty period means our techs will take care of both problems one and two no problem with our mobile service. I may see if we can escalate that issue with the bed; we may be able to offer a fix for that in the future. A tunnel through the body on each side seems like a good solution. I believe the body panels are aluminum. Utilize our warranty! People come in with minor rattles and we fix them no questions asked; this is a much larger issue.

The plant growing inside the truck is an integral part of Rivian’s long term ecological strategy. Later you can transplant all of the plants you’ve started, passively, in your truck, into a local field, thus lowering the carbon footprint of your truck even further.

I'd be worried about what happens when the dirt/rock stuck in there gets wet. No, not the plant growing. But the rust that will now be well moisturized to spread. It's not unique to the Rivian though. Lots of old ICE pickups, used to haul or hard offroad, accumulate dirt and dust up under the fender wells and inside the doors. When the moisture comes and, it will, this means those areas are caked with mud. Which is why you get rust through from the inside in those areas over time.

From the looks if it the design probably wouldn't take much of a change for this to be corrected.

Former quality engineer at two giant top 5 auto oems - the water ingress in the door is a massive issue, bigger than you think. One of the very few normal quality issues that you would consider as “A-rank” coming off the end of the line. Some are bound to slip through the cracks as only a certain percentage of vehicles can realistically be tested, but I’m surprised Rivian isn’t giving you better customer service here purely due to defect severity.

The thing that concerns me most about the dirt getting under the bed is that it shows how little hauling experience the Rivian engineers must have. From years of hauling dirt, I know from experience how the F-150 drops the dirt near the back of the bed out onto the bumper - which isn’t great but is much better than having it inside the rear of the truck.

The main thing I hate about my Rivian is the service center experience. They kept my truck for 3 weeks to fix cameras that stopped working and adjust door fitment. They gave it back covered in cement dust from a neighboring construction site. The loaner vehicle was a rental from enterprise, that when I went to pickup, had no vehicles for 3 days even though Rivian had months to prepare for my visit they gave enterprise an hour. Through the Rivian app I could see the truck just sat out in the sun baking (interior temps and location), they only had it in the building 3 days out of 3 weeks, and drove it 15 miles which did not seem required for the service being done. Now there is a highspeed steering wobble that didn't exist when I brought it in. And what kind of service department gives a vehicle back covered in dust and dirt inside and out. Rivian has a lot to learn about customer service.

Alex on Autos mentioned that Rivan has a massive battery drain when vehicle is not in use effectively loosing around 2.8 kilowatts of energy every day (27% of total battery change over 13 days); the gear guard (video recording of surrounding) was off when the drain was happening. As we know, all batteries loose charge overtime, plus there are still some things which may be running on the background, but this seams to be an extreme number, and in the same video Ford Lightening lost about 0.18 kilowatts per day (~2killowats over 13 days). So, according to that video, Rivian R1T was draining about 1 megawatt per year without anything running actively, which seams a bit extreme. Have you experienced anything similar? I'm just curious if only his test model had that issue, or if it's a common issue with the Rivian brand.

I have the same truck and don’t do nearly as much “truck” work but I do haul mulch and bags of cement etc. While I don’t yet have a plant growing, I too noticed some mulch, small rocks, and other debris accumulating under the bed/tailgate separator. Similarly, I have the full under body protection panel……so no way to access these areas. It seems a reasonable solution would be to place an access panel or panels (maybe one on each side) that the owner could periodically drop open to clear debris. It could be hinged and held tight by a couple of standard bolts. This way the integrity of the under body panel would remain intact, but the “stuff” could be cleared out as needed?

The industry fudges those numbers so badly it's criminal. Most of the mining comes from 3rd world countries and there is little if any compliance to emissions standards there. They base all their numbers as if it was done here on modern equipment under optimal conditions. They also completely fake the end of life cycle for these batteries. The vast majority of lithium batteries never get recycled. They end up back in a 3rd world country in a landfill where we can't see them.

he failed to account for depreciation ... hes not gaining anything long term. once out of warranty that Truck is going to cost him an arm and a leg to get fixed due to only being able to be serviced by the actual dealer.

That tail gate kills me with the dirt also! Don't have the door issue in mines. My cover still works great with a few hick ups here and there. They replaced my full battery pack at 3500 miles. Took them 4 days to do it. I'm happy with my rivian. By far fav

The first two issues are deal breakers if you pan on keeping the vehicle for a long time, in this case 5+ years normally I would say 10+ years. The the third issue is more funny than a problem for me. Cool idea to take the truck on that climb as part of the review to show sone of the fun side.

Interesting defects in this truck. Hopefully by the time a few years rolls around and I can think about affording one, they will fix these bugs. To me the water in the door issue and the charging tape measure are not deal breakers. But I'd have to seriously consider the problem of dirt and rocks aggregating in the underbody, that might be a non-starter. Love the video, delivered with a great sense of humour!

Add a flexible plastic cover and the problem is fixed, if these are the main problems with a brand-new car manufacturer then these cars when prices drop are going to outsell any other. Damn, i would be surprised if after seeing this review Rivian had not updated software to fix the charging issue and put some type of cover over the gap in the bed. The water in the door issue is nothing, simply removing the plug would fix it, clean out the mud accumulated, and the problem will never happen again as the water getting in there and sloshing around would move any dirt from the hole over time, just like any other car. As a manufacturer of small numbers of these truck, Rivian can easily fix the one real problem of dirt accumulating under the gap in the bed and do a recall or wait for service time to fix the only real problem of dirt accumulation, advice to customers and a software update will fix the other issues no service personnel needed.

Loved the video and the update. It would be interesting to see if other Rivian owners are having the same issues with water in the door and if so how it is affecting the vehicle. I live in the north so I would get the freezing weather. I wonder why Rivian has not replaced the door for you under some kind of of defect/warranty. The hinges could be solved with some rubber booty to cover the open space or maybe some access panels underneath that you could open and get rid of the dirt. I will most likely wait till the changer over to the Tesla charging system and hopefully by then this quality control issues will be fixed. Keep us the great videos.

My bet is with the dirt in the frame, that with a long bendy tube and a shop vac you could probably get some of it out?

However, that said, here in socal, we just don't get a lot of rain....well...right at this moment....we are getting a lot of rain. lol All that being said, when I can afford one (in a couple years), I plan to get one. Nice truck...nice that you USE it too!! :)
