#Rivian #R1T #EV - บันเทิง
Sue: “I’m fortunate to have long legs, and I’m grateful for that”
Sandy: “me too”
Doesn’t miss a beat! Lol
Mama's still hot. How did Sandy bag THAT?
Doh! Caught that too but you beat me to the comment. He married a hottie and he knows it. :)
@@hefeibao And she is super smart on top
THANKS SUE ,SANDY…FOR THE RIVIAN COMMERCIAL 😁💚💚💚
@@budgetaudiophilelife-long5461 YES I was surprised... Sue hates the RIVIAN on trips, RIVIAN no longer sells the defective Tonneau cover, the RIVIAN software "BRICKS UP", the vampire battery drain is hideous... DOES Sandy have a new contract with RIVIAN ⁉
Love the cut out cardboard Cory overseeing the segment😂
Next up, Sue?
Didn’t notice it at first then thought Cory is standing really creepily glaring at Sandy. Took me a few moment’s to realize it was cardboard
@@aharris1iOS Lol! Me too! 😄
@@aharris1iOS I think that’s going be an ongoing gag- watch for more of the familiar faces.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No wonder Sandy is such a great person, he gets it from Sue.
Sue is like a 5x PhD with like 10 masters 😂😂😂
Love the protectors she made for the seats. 🥰🥰🥰
Lovely comment !
The best feature of the truck was it made Sue happy. 😎
@@maxflight777 there is am on the Toyota hatchback
Chill out Beta. Sandy makes Susan better.
Sue was fabulous giving us a concise summary of her thoughts about her Rivian. I liked Sandy's explanation about installing a non Rivian cellphone charger.
You can tell Sue loves this car she smiles like a teen getting her first car.
Fantastic seeing both mr and mrs on the channel again!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
A true power couple!
@@MunroLive Appropriate for an EV channel. 😎
@Munro Live I'm wondering who's dry, quick wit is to blame for that one! I know y'all have low standards!
@@MunroLive DC power, that is.
Sue is truly a delight. Sandy should have her on more often.🥰
Always great to see ‘older’ folks viewing the world with youthful exuberance and wisdom.
There’s nothing worse than a young person with a closed mind.
Keep up the good work in promoting EV’s and smart environmental issues, sir.
It has an inductive charger under the charger plate you installed. It has it, but the phones slide around easily. However it is there.
On all models? Strange that they wouldn't know if theirs had one.
Yeah they all have them, but it is a huge fail on Rivian’s part and really doesn’t work.
Looks like it was a sponsor, so I guess that's why. But the mag safe aspect of that is great.
I've heard lots of complaints about this but my phone charges just fine it it. Actually I'd like to be able to turn it off sometimes when I'm really pushing the range on a long trip
Your company does a great job of getting the real facts out to us on EVs! We appreciate all of your and your employees efforts! Thanks Sandy!
Glad you like them!
I love Sue and Sandy’s loving relationship!
The most impressive thing about the Rivian is how is excels so well on so many different things. It's like 3 vehicles in 1. F150 Lightning is great for work beating, but the Rivian will out tow it, go farther distance, blow the doors off a supercharged Camaro, has air suspension and will travel 5.5" inches higher clearance than an F150 for offroading and a 43" water fording height. It's certainly amazing the capabilities they can pack into one vehicle. Makes me excited for the future.
I cannot that it has already been one year, that’s how fast love makes things go by!
Cory “standing” in the background behind Sandy is hilarious
Making sure he doesn’t say anything too fruity that could bring their channel into disrepute! 😂
Cardboard Corey
This made my day! I'm so glad to see you are both loving your R1T!
We really should have Sue and Sandy do an AMA...would be fascinating to hear how they met, what their favorite cars are, what's Sandy like at home, etc., etc.
Great 1 year review, thank you for posting this.
You two are great in front of the camera, too. Can’t imagine a technical discussion(disagreement) between 2 engineers. We love you, guys!
You're a lucky man Sandy! So great to get to know Sue better
Love the start. Can tell they’ve had a wonderful marriage.
Thanks Sue & Sandy! I love the sill protector & the wood protection & charging solutions. Great to see you enjoy the vehicle and that it drives well in winter! 🥰
I warms my heat to see the two interact with obvious affections - so fortunate
Sue seems lovely. Good for you both. You deserve each other.
Great video. I enjoy watching you tell about each of your experiences with the vehicle.
I pulled up to an Electrify America charging station next to a R1T and the young lady who owned it was very happy with it.
Always a treat when sue drops by for a video.
Sandy & Sue you two make a great review and evaluation team. Really enjoyed your review of the Rivian R1T.
The portfolio of tear downs in munro is absolutely amazing.
Fantastic Sandy and Sue, that was great!! I would love to see more of these videos with you two. 😀 Regards from Tennessee.
Sue is a gem. Awesome first-hand experience info on the R1T.
I don't think I've ever seen two people better matched for each-other! Need more Sue + Sandy clips going forward please! This was awesome!
This is just great! I love everything Munro puts out!
Sue & Sandy - Thanks for the update! We have a R1S build that is supposed to be ready in Q3, so very happy to hear you're pleased with the R1T.
I love you two. We need more videos with both of you in them.
Now I know how Sandy has such a happy life. Wow!
I’m sure Rivian is listening for improvements. We are getting our R1S this summer and I’m going to incorporate the feedback from Munro Live. Thanks Sue and Sandy for telling it like it is.
Happy Monday!! Thanks for the video.
Happy Monday to you as well!
It’s good to get a lady’s input on things that could be changed, added, removed. Sandy, you guys put out the best videos. Keep telling it like it is.
Another amazing video! I loved hearing Sue’s perspective.
OK, we need to see Sue on this channel more!! Smart and pretty! We still love you too Sandy ;)
Great video. Glad to hear you love the Rivian. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Love the beginning of the video with the Cory cardboard cutout watching over Sandy's left shoulder. 👍👍
Love your wife's observations. About things that you know you'll do everyday.
Sandy Munro hit the jackpot with Sue. On top of that she had great insight into the truck as well. Great video!
Love Sandy’s and Sue’s banter. I’m jealous of their relationship. A match made in heaven.
Cardboard Corey in the background is my new favorite.
these folks are a class act 🎩
👏👏👏 LOVE THE SHOW 🙏 HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE ✌️
All our Best to Ellie!
Thanks for the PSA
Like the applicable & tested sponsor! It dovetails well with the content of the video!
Wow Sue Munro is a natural at presenting! What a power couple!
Great show with Sue. Make more of those. Rivian, very nice : )
Very good review. Thanks.
great start of the video
All our Best to Ellie.
Thanks for the PSA
Nice to get a ladies opinion on real world use of the vehicle. Well spoken and clear. You should make Sue a regular part of your excellent channel Sandy.
Thank you for the video.
Thanks for watching!
I could be mistaken, but I believe AM radio was removed from EVs due to the electric motors generally interfering with the AM radio signals.
Count your blessings Sandy! Sue is amazing ❤️
OMG I LOVE THE CUT OUTS IN THE BACKGROUND !!! corey was that your idea ??? WOO WOO WOO
Great Video !!!
Love the Corey cutout. Had to make sure to get him in every video 🤣
It’s amazing to me that new companies like Rivian and Tesla get so many things right from the beginning vs legacy auto. There software updates are really fantastic. Their batteries and motor seem rock solid
Sue is a pleasure...you sure have her on more often!!!!
Ha! I live in Lake Orion too! I'm planning on renting one of these for a camping trip in June. I can't wait. I want to buy one so badly. They're so expensive though. Going they come down in price in a few years.
Thanks for the review.
The rivian already comes with a wireless charger right where that accessory you installed goes. It's not MagSafe but it's wireless so you might want to edit the video.
The Rivian charger is GARBAGE. If you have a case on your phone there’s less than 10% chance it will charge.
@@mikejaeger716 That’s a huge exaggeration. They are not as stable as the aftermarket one that the Munro’s installed, but mainly they work well enough.
Sandy is blessed.
Informative and fun episode!! More Sandy & Sue please!
Great out take 😀👍
Thanks 👍
This was a lovely review. 👍
Glad you liked it!
what a brilliant lady! sandy is a lucky man.
Thank you!
Suggestion is it possible to make a report product for normal consumers? Like a disassembly how to? Thanks for all the great content and real life usage of products. Sandy and Sue are human just like us. Sandy backs into trailer hitch with the wife's car! OUCH lol love you guys!
Great review .
Would love to see Munro address more of the issues that Rivian is having with the R1T. It’s clear Rivian could use some additional engineering resources. A deep dive on the phantom drain issues would be a good example. The R1T is damn near the perfect vehicle, just need to work out the kinks.
mptpfunk........................I priced one of these out like the one they have, but it was OVER $100,000!
@@1gr8oil What's your point?
Evidently they didn’t find it to be an issue for them. That’s the beauty of real-life review - you share what you experienced.
Luv my Rivian after 12k miles, only suggestions…retractable ceiling shade and driver side windshield wiper heater
15:40 - "There for your engineering enjoyment", love it!!
You two are lovely together ❤️
Sue really is excellent at presenting.
I bought a Rivian based on Sandy's take and others. It is fantastic, have owned for 3 months now. One thing I would like is for the heated seats and steering wheel to automatically turn on when outside temp is below freezing. That is the one thing my previous RAM 1500 did better.
Wow, what a joy she is to listen. I love Sandy, but he cant hold a candle to her more natural fluid presenting.
I don't remember the source where I read that AM radio does not work in an EV due to the interference caused by the car's electronics. Worth looking into. Easy test would be to get a portable AM radio and drive around with it on. From an engineer's perspective it makes sense. The electronics are continuously changing at varying frequencies. AM radio is very sensitive in that regard. Great review and many good tips for Rivian to improve their great product.
Yeah sue back 👍👍 get these 2 together it's like super man & super woman. Excellent follow up on the rivian.
Great video!
Thanks!
What a lovely couple!
Wow Rivian!Amazing,mundblowing,gamechanging,revolutionary!
Rivian comes with induction charger. Mine has it. It’s in the exact same spot where you installed that aftermarket piece…
Yes on the AM radio
How to expand Munro audience More Sandy and Sue!! This was great!!
It's cool to see that a new brand like Rivian is doing so well with a brand new car and meanwhile Volkswagen has a lot of struggles with EV's after making cars for decades.
Volkswagen has no struggles!The Volkswagen group sold 570k evs last year!
That could quite possibly be from the fact that it was designed from the ground up as an EV.
Is it fair to compare the two since they are so far apart. Running VW with all its subsidiaries, workers unions and management to satisfy is probably 10 times greater.
I like the EV idea for local commutes, but I still think they're trying to copy look and feel of gasoline-powered vehicles. I think a smaller, lighter vehicle is something the public might not embrace.
One caution I have against EVs is the EM fields emanating from the motors. Might be bad for you. Won't know for another 20 or 50 years.
I worry about reliability and durability. I also worry about the manufacture and disposal of these batteries they need. Are we hurting the planet worse, in another way? For that matter, if our emissions ARE climatically significant, might they help keep us warmer if we're actually heading into another ice age? Maybe we were created by the lower animals to run their smudge pots for them, to stave off the cold! "We gave you one job..." says the squirrel.
Did you mean Toyota or Honda ? 🤣
That totally sucks getting the truck keyed - hope Rivian got a mode that you filmed whoever did it to your car and the police can get them
Rivian needs a sub routine for detection of keying, then sending video to the police, and sharing the location.
If you ever watch "Wham Bam Tesla Cam", keying EV's seems to be way too common. Just got an EV (Ford Mach E 2023) and worry about that because many mustang drivers are also mad about the name
I just gotta say it…What a babe🙀! This one is a true gem Sandy. Good for you.
Great video. I saw a Rivian “in the wild” last week in Pennsylvania and it had a dent in the exact same spot as Sue’s. Sandy told about the trailer hitch incident. I wonder if the same thing happened to the one I saw.
Sandy and Sue's Rivian, but Sandy got his commercial plug! Good on ya Sandy!
Wow, 1 year already!
Sue is a natural!
Sandy, Your wife is a HIT !!! Have Sue on again, please... Thank you both for an entertaining demo and report.
Nice tu see Sue !
Hahah someone is lurking in the background 😅😅 good video
Sandy using military time on his phone. Love that. Such a practical engineer thru and thru
What do you mean by military? In europe and the rest of the world its the
time format
@@alexborras8886 in USA only military use it for the most part. I AGREE rest of world uses it, so it is even morr practical.
Too awesome
sue is fantastic!
Great episode, as usual! I think a brief comment on the road trip charging issues would be fair.
We have discussed that in multiple videos.
