If you want an example of micromanaging, this is it. It seemed like it was great content, but I only get about 10 minutes in because of how distracting his voice was and also how awkward it was with him interjecting all the time
Okay Kyle, I get you want to push content out super fast, but I think you would have been fine to film footage for the points you want to cover and just some b-roll, then wait for your voice to comeback around, do a sitdown chat video dropping in footage as you hit various points. Yes, it would take more time, but it would probably have better shelf life and more appeal. For me, I was distracted by the strained voice. Protect your health, that is most important. Just consider grabbing footage and doing a video later when your voice is better. You have a great brand and have been building a ton of content. Keep up the great work, remember to give yourself a break every now and then to protect your health.
13:55 believe gen1 has two cameras in mirror. What was pointed to as 3rd camera on underneath is the light which projects Rivian logo down onto the ground and illuminates side of vehicle at night. Just the forward facing and side view cameras.
I love OOS reviews... really I do. But maybe having a list of bulletpoints of things you want to cover before you go to shoot the video so the reviewers aren't having to rely on a little old lady behind the camera to remind them all the time? Just my 2 C... but seriously.. I love the work and fun you guys have.
I think this would have been better having waited for Kyle to have a voice because it really wasn’t Jordan doing the comparison as Kyle couldn’t resist constantly talking. I love the nerd stuff and in-depth comparison, but the voice was definitely making me want to continue watching the video. Otherwise, love the content!
Thank you and this helps me feel more confident being a 1st time R1S 2nd gen LFP battery buyer moving from a Tesla Model Y (great car overall just not meeting some of our needs/wants)
I would love a split screen edit side by side of new vs old cameras. Surprised I don't see anything like that anywhere. Would be nice to see them side by side to see the difference.
Would love to hear your opinion on buying a new gen 2 standard range ($80k) vs a used gen 1 large pack ($65-70k). I hope they release some info soon whether the gen 2 suspension can be retrofitted to the gen 1 R1S.
Now that the 21" tires have discontinued, would we still get them as spares? And what was said about overheating the pin temperatures, sorry but I didn't quite catch that part.
I would imagine that the rear door emergency release might be hidden because you wouldn't be able to disable it if kids were in the back. Most (4 door) vehicles have rear door lockouts to keep the passengers from opening the rear doors. Effectively child locks. Just a guess.
You’ve been pushing yourself pretty hard all over the world. Your body is telling you to take a rest. Listen to your body, we want you around to keep producing more awesome content for years to come.
Kyle, you need to stop talking and let your voice rest. It'll take longer to heal if you keep talking. But that voice sure makes the video 1000% funnier. hahahaha
Hate to give critical feedback, but this 38 minutes of ADHD bouncing all around the vehicle with a weird voice behind the camera was super hard to watch and I gave up after scrubbing through the first half. A more thought out, scripted video where you hit all the exterior items in a sensible order, then move to the inside would have been much better.
Starting to think maybe Quad Motor might be 800V architecture? Just seems odd that Munro intervied RJ and they talked about 800V architecture and the Gen2 isn't getting it.
I think they need to work on service. I bought a brand new r1s three months ago and it’s still in service for a front sensor error they haven’t fixed. I wonder if I’m unlucky or this happens more than is being reported.
I'm still very intrested to see how Rivian will treat all the customers that tend to keep their Gnen 1 vehicles for another 10+ years. Will Rivian keep supporting them or just say sorry you can either buy a new car or go elsewhere.
I am big fan of Kyle, but this video needed some better planning. Kyle has a style that we like on this channel and I am not sure other employees can be Kyle.
Amber fog lights make monster difference when there is fog and or dust. Hate this new trend of getting rid of fog lamps also hate when they do have them they make them white.
Users perceived of value depends on just that: your values. Personally, I value camera quality more than anything else on a car. If I can back up in a crowded parking lot with confidence, that's worth a TON to me. I'd take some shittier door quality for better cameras.
Nice of that little old lady to do the videoing! Is that your grandmother, Jordan?😆
I think it's actually Mickey Mouse with strep throat 😂
She's just so excited about those Rivian jelly beans (7:05) 😂
HAHAHAHAHA
I think it’s Marge Simpson behind the camera.
OMG this had me dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kyle can't help himself from talking, even when he doesn't have a voice lol
I’m convinced nothing in the world can stop Kyle from talking, but that’s why we love him! Don’t wear yourself out too much though
I broke out laughing when you said “you have to forgive my voice” I’m sorry Kyle 😂😂
sounds like a grandma
Jordan obviously earned all his extensive EV knowledge by all those afternoons spent listening to his meemaw’s detailed stories about EVs of yore.
jeezus not even losing your voice can keep kyle quiet lol. bro you have a great team- let them do them, they got this
If you want an example of micromanaging, this is it. It seemed like it was great content, but I only get about 10 minutes in because of how distracting his voice was and also how awkward it was with him interjecting all the time
More grandmother's reviews please from behind the camera
Yes that was perfect!
Hahaha
Rest your voice Kyle. If your voice sounds like that, it means you shouldn't be talking. It'll take longer to get better if you do.
You really do need to rest your voice. Go see a doctor please if you havent
Okay Kyle, I get you want to push content out super fast, but I think you would have been fine to film footage for the points you want to cover and just some b-roll, then wait for your voice to comeback around, do a sitdown chat video dropping in footage as you hit various points.

So sorry to hear (about) your voice, Kyle 😩
Hahaha sorry! 😂
Burn
Would have preferred Jordan only do the talking.
Can’t take Kyle seriously in this video lol😅😅😅
Bro Kyle, you need to take care of yourself my dude. Should’ve handed this off to someone else on the team
He did, but he could not help himself.
That voice crack coming outta nowhere like an RKO lol. Great video.
I can’t stop laughing
Not jelly bean looking things 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 real tears!
Same lol
I couldn’t either ahaha
Kyle, bro. I was shook when I heard your voice 🤣🤣🤣
Seriously though, hope you get better man!
Dude! Rest your voice!
13:55 believe gen1 has two cameras in mirror. What was pointed to as 3rd camera on underneath is the light which projects Rivian logo down onto the ground and illuminates side of vehicle at night. Just the forward facing and side view cameras.
I followed Grandma’s advice and wisdom and got the Gen2 already. The range is pretty good. Made it from Sac to Truckee and back on 1 charge at 100%.
Qi2 is a standard format with magnets, compatible with iPhones too
Good job jordan! You need to be in more videos! Kyle - let your protege step up!
Thank you! Needed this!
I love OOS reviews... really I do. But maybe having a list of bulletpoints of things you want to cover before you go to shoot the video so the reviewers aren't having to rely on a little old lady behind the camera to remind them all the time? Just my 2 C... but seriously.. I love the work and fun you guys have.
Kyle - Stop talking. Save your voice :)
I don't think he is capable of not talking about EVs lol
And our ears
I thought Kyle was a ventriloquist. One man show!
Whos the new out of spec girl behind the camera? She has a lovely voice 😍
I think this would have been better having waited for Kyle to have a voice because it really wasn’t Jordan doing the comparison as Kyle couldn’t resist constantly talking. I love the nerd stuff and in-depth comparison, but the voice was definitely making me want to continue watching the video. Otherwise, love the content!

I love the new bar light set up. I love how it has dimension and now has the RGB built in for effects.
13:50 there is no camera at the bottom. You're looking at the Rivian logo LED light (the logo that shines on the ground).
Grandma Kyle, I think this should be your permanent voice.
C'mon Kyle, gotta sit this one out, bro.
LOL that voice!! Nice of you to bring your grandmother for the review!!!
I would love a split screen edit side by side of new vs old cameras. Surprised I don't see anything like that anywhere. Would be nice to see them side by side to see the difference.
Guys I'm sorry, I can't watch this video with the cameraman talking like this.
Yeah, should not have talked at all. Very annoying
I test drove the old version and the motors were so loud and there was rattling in the dash. Drove me nuts... build quality subpar
I never comment but I'm dying here🤣 Thanks Kyle for the laughs. This is precious!!!
Very good info. Thank you guys
Honestly, I was painful to hear Kyle trying to talk in this video. Please take care and let your voice recover.
didnt know you guys hired donald duck
Would love to hear your opinion on buying a new gen 2 standard range ($80k) vs a used gen 1 large pack ($65-70k). I hope they release some info soon whether the gen 2 suspension can be retrofitted to the gen 1 R1S.
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth....
Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste .. 🙏🏻 😊 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊
I think you can spot the gen 2 with the badge also - yellow bar vs black bar on the R1S.
Will the new RFID location make it difficult to install after market magsafe chargers on the gen2?
For me the best Rivian the EV car manufacturer ❤❤❤.
Love their work can't wait to get them here in Europe 😊😊😊.
Jordan great video
"i like the little jellybean looking things" - i ROFL'D hahaha, with the voice 🤣
It would be cool if Rivian adopted Qi2
Now that the 21" tires have discontinued, would we still get them as spares? And what was said about overheating the pin temperatures, sorry but I didn't quite catch that part.

no NACS?
In my DEADPOOL voice ZIP IT KYLE!! 😂
Still wondering when we are going to get that in-depth review of the Blazer EV RS. Lol
Hope you are all healed up, Kyle!!
Please rest your voice Kyle!
The dark out package is not black out. It’s more charcoal gray than black.
Hope you feel better soon Kyle
Hate to give critical feedback, but this 38 minutes of ADHD bouncing all around the vehicle with a weird voice behind the camera was super hard to watch and I gave up after scrubbing through the first half. A more thought out, scripted video where you hit all the exterior items in a sensible order, then move to the inside would have been much better.
I love their stuff and was interested in this video, but I couldn't take more than 10 min of Kyle's voice either.
Reminds me of the Scottish duck shouting to another duck - "Quack". And the other Scottish duck replied " Ah canna go any quacker"
Can't wait for you to get a Tri-Motor!
I usually watch y'all videos at 1.5x speed. Hearing Kyle at this speed is probably the most hilariously scary thing I have ever heard 😭😭
So I have an early R1T- biggest gripe is the bluetooth when locking and unlocking- thinking of getting a 25 R1S- is the bluetooth improved at all?
I love the "Grandma Kyle" voice. (Sorry, Kyle.) I laughed through the whole video... :)
Am I the only one here that hears Marge Simpson’s voice when Jordon talks.
The old fog lights looked very nice...probably expensive.
Starting to think maybe Quad Motor might be 800V architecture? Just seems odd that Munro intervied RJ and they talked about 800V architecture and the Gen2 isn't getting it.
When did the Gen 1 swap over to the Gen 2?
The video was on for a bit before I actually started listening. I was so caught off guard that I was thinking, "did Disney just buy Out of Spec?"
I think they need to work on service. I bought a brand new r1s three months ago and it’s still in service for a front sensor error they haven’t fixed. I wonder if I’m unlucky or this happens more than is being reported.
I watched this video for the sole purpose of hearing Kyle talk.
I'm still very intrested to see how Rivian will treat all the customers that tend to keep their Gnen 1 vehicles for another 10+ years. Will Rivian keep supporting them or just say sorry you can either buy a new car or go elsewhere.
Might be a good occasion to check out voice synthesis. Hey, it worked for Hawking.
This is Kyle’s “through the wire” moment
Why don't the rear doors open 90 degrees?
You have good people, that’s a benefit of a team. Let go a bit and heal up.
I insist every video Kyle does onward is in old sweet granny voice mode. Who's with me?!?
I am big fan of Kyle, but this video needed some better planning. Kyle has a style that we like on this channel and I am not sure other employees can be Kyle.
I think it is only 2 camera’s on the side mirror and the one on the bottom is the spot light
The grandmas these days are into all the new tech. Amazing. 😀
Kyle, please refrain from talking. Thank you.
Would You recommend 2022 Rivian R1T Launch edition with 22k miles for $55,000
I am sorry this had me cracking up at points from the voice, hope you recover soon.
The wireless charger works great for our Pixel phones. However, if you have a wire or keys next to it, it won't charge. Might be a safety feature.
Amber fog lights make monster difference when there is fog and or dust. Hate this new trend of getting rid of fog lamps also hate when they do have them they make them white.

so does Gen2 dual motor also have a poor audio system like the the Gen1?
I definitely prefer the old blinker location
Does the new gen have Sentry Mode?
feel like Jordan is making Kyle talk on purpose because he finds it funny lol
Poor Kyle he sounds like Herbert from the Family Guy. Get well soon!
How’s the gen2 wind noise? It’s horrible in gen1.
Would like a review video for the Silverado EV.
😆 Rest that voice Kyle!!
Is it me of Kyle mixed-up EV chargers (which convert AC to DC) with AC / DC (Australian rock band)?
That old iphone has wireless charging?
Omg, poor Kyle. Chiming in right next to the mic with the creepiest car ASMR content ever!
Thank you Jordan and Minnie Mouse!!
On this episode of Mrs. Doubtfire reviews; New Rivian VS old, which is better for your knitting club?
Literally NOTHING will stop Kyle from talking.
