I followed and circled a Green Rivan for about 30 mins while Driving on 280 Northbound between San Jose and San Francisco. I was surprised that it seemed smaller. I was in my 2000 Ford Ranger XLT and I think it was pretty close in size. The bed seems very short. I am envious of the gear locker and the step it creates but I want the pass thru more. I still think it looks like a anime from the front but who am I to talk. The CT is out there on design but that is what attracted me to it.

CT in 2026?
Country flag
I live near the Rivian corporate headquarters in Irvine, CA. I see quite a few running around in my area now.

In 2021 I was noticing R1T’s driving around in the distinctive camouflaged vinyl wrap.

They appear to be slightly larger than a current Toyota Tacoma.

I saw a blue one last week that parked next to my Zero. Alas, my phone was literally in the shop being repaired at the time, so no pictures.

I was behind a Pole Star last week as well. Californian is rich with EVs. Seeing some of these rare vehicles makes me want my CT even more.

In AU, we would need to put a red flag on that.

Yes know, Ii looked and didn't find anything specific. But I reckon I’d be pulled over for sure.

Rule here is 60% of wheelbase is allowed to overhang the rear wheel, which that would be within I think. But it might need more visible markers on it because it goes that far past the rear lights. Not sure why he didn't opt for a more compact side opening variant.

There is no comparison between R1t and Toyota Tacoma. R1t is a piece of crap which is unnecessary double the price of a Tacoma.
