Wow, I'm a huge fan of the Ghost Town Living channel and have been watching Brent's work over there since the early days of his channel. I'm an even bigger fan of what Rivian is doing.

This video literally could not be more up my alley.

[weezleey]

I remember this guys videos when he first started the town. Completely forget about this

[ianinohio]

When I read the title and saw the desert thumbnail I was REALLY hoping it would be that town. Was pleasantly surprised :)

[jayk.]

If you like old, preserved desert ghost towns, check out Delamar in S. Nevada. The access road will give that Rivian a run for it's money!!!!

When are you guys bringing the nas Carlo back @MoTortrend channel

[TheBowerbird]

These lifestyle puff pieces are kind of odd. The truck only appears occasionally, and it's never really in action or talked about. I own a Rivian and love it to death, but maybe talk about that some since you're an auto channel?

Guy already knows the camera man, at the start of introduction

[chrisbarnes]

When me and my friends go off road and all day we usually bring gas cans with us just in case what happens when this thing runs low on the battery charge

[markos]

Again? Really? Tell me about the truck! This is motortrend not some instagram account.

[mikep]

So, um... why was a Rivian mentioned?

[brewweasel]

is it just me, or did it sound like they added Internal Combustion engine noises in the intro of the video?

[ilqarilyasov]

How much does Rivian pay MT for these videos?

[developingWithPaul]

Lol they did all their action shots around 25 miles from Cerro Gordo in the Alabama hills which is super wide dirt roads that any car can do. There is nothing in this video that the average station wagon isn't capable of. Is there a reason you didn't take the truck to the salt tram down to Keeler? It would have been a great demonstration of the R1Ts capabilities (lets be real, it would be a showcase in getting stuck and inability to compete with even stock trucks of similar size)

[getchasome]

Can you charge one of those with a generator? Anybody know??

[NoOne-hngs]

At a price tag of no thank I'll keep my dinosaur juice guzzling dodge.

[Ratridez]

I dont see a truck, that's a plastic suv with a open box

[a.benaway_racing]

They are trying so hard to push this truck. MT is making bank off JB.

What is the point of these Rivian videos? I came for the truck not a derelict mine shaft.
