Now we need the Rivian retested and both the HMMWV EV and Hummer EV tested the same way. A leaderboard of electric trucks with towing range and acceleration would be pretty sweet as more options reach the market.
-
12 secs while towing 10k lbs of weight is insane
-
Try it in the wintertime, when it's snowing and blowing with outside temp of 10 degrees. That would be interesting.
-
That backup assist is awesome for backing a jetski trailer, those short trailers are a PIA. With the rear camera and the backup assist it a POC...Piece Of Cake!
-
That's my e-GOLF charging next to you that's rated for 124 miles. It's crazy that you can match my range while towing 10K.
-
Nothing like Zack pushing the limits of every vehicle!
-
It's nice seeing a test like this with no obvious bias. Good job.
-
Great video about an amazing truck! I haven't needed to tow anything in mine yet, so this is very helpful info. Thanks!
-
I want to see this done with the Rivian again, under the same conditions (spring weather, road tires). If you do, it would be good to know if Rivian has provided any software updates since your first towing test (perhaps they've improved the range estimations when towing and/or added options to see more data on the screen).
-
1:07 well the warmer temps alone will make the range go up quite a bit. Definitely do it again with the Rivian in this weather for a good comparison!
-
Very insightful video! Enjoyed how you showed the reverse pilot on the Ford lighting!
-
Excellent, honest test of the Lightening. For the moment I had already ruled out EV's, as we have a travel trailer and needing to stop every 100 miles or so and wait 30+ minutes to charge is not practical. Thanks for your report
-
You should redo the Rivian test in this same weather. I bet they’re neck and neck! The previous winter drive in the Rivian puts it at a significant disadvantage.
-
9:53 Goes to show the crazy amount of engineering that goes into making these machines efficient. No one could've seen this coming 20 years ago.

I love your voice. You have this calm voice during teardown's you don't strain or force words just smooth and and you pronounce you words on key. You make a mistake there is no silent pause no awkwardness like you meant for it. And most people like that seem emotionless when they speak but you're not. You can hear the variations and tone changes. It's a very calming voice. You would make a very good interrogator. While someone is trying to get under your skin to make themselves fire up and become defensive. You remain calm and throw them off their game. It's just WOW! Rare to hear a voice like that.
-
Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
-
7:13 so if you switch it to one pedal mode, it actually applies full re-gen as soon as you let off. You can come to a complete stop without using the brake on one pedal too
-
Great content as always. Love the drone shots, pretty cool being able to see portions of your drive from above and following along with Google Maps. :)
-
Great job on the video Zack! Thanks for making it.
-
Super useful. This is inspiring. Not yet ideal but not as bad as I thought. Much better actually. Same test under cold conditions would be also useful. Thank you!
