No PU (not a Rivian or a diesel crew cab) has a large enough cabin (temp controlled) to transport 6-8 crated medium sized dogs plus a driver and passenger.
Even though PUs don’t meet my needs I don’t write off them as a possibly useful TV for others with different priorities. Clearly some here have decided the Rivian is useless for everyone as a TV since it doesn’t meet their needs.
“Can’t possibly work for someone else since it doesn’t work for me”
I don’t think anyone is actually saying that, save for maybe trying to make a point to those who hold EVs in higher regard than they have capability to back it up with.
Just like the 90% commuter argument.
If I don’t “need” my big dumb jacked up diesel 90% of the time, I also don’t get to haul my camper EVER.
If the electric chainsaw would cut 90% of the trees (it won’t but let’s say there was a real electric power saw and not just the little toy ones) but leaves the biggest and most expensive trees in the woods, it is of 0 use to the logger unless he packs in 2 saws every day. (Different situation than a car as a chain saw isn’t a huge purchase, but same principle.)
