Our LUTS: https://bit.ly/BCLUTS Our Home Accessory Line: https://bit.ly/BChomegoods We've had the Rivian R1S for 7 months now. We've taken it camping, on long haul roadtrips, and we've tested it though the harsh winters in Buffalo. Was it worth the money? Do we have regrets? How much does a fender bender cost to repair? These are our honest thoughts, a non bias review of the Rivian R1s aka Rivi, aka The McRiv and wether you should buy one for yourself.
