Good question! For starters, the Rivian R1T and R1S do not have FSD, the larger vehicle size, and cargo storage we are looking for as compared to the CT. Considering a couple of safety features only, I feel having CT's FSD in a tri-motor or dual motor configuration would be safer than a Rivian...

I'll use your line. Hopefully, the name "Beast" gives her visualizations of safety!! :D

Thanks for the info! I agree with you regarding value. Originally, I was thinking only of the dual motor because of efficiency, and because of reading online that there were problems with the tri-motor. Namely, there were strange vibrations or rattling-type noises when the third motor...

Haha, thanks for the welcome, and I love your sense of humor! While I'm sure there is some truth to what you wrote, I'm really looking at the "safety edge" reasoning. But I guess having that extra power is something I'll just have to live with! 😁 I'm one of those who probably focus too much...

Thanks for the data. That's not bad and is much better than GM's Hummer SUV.

Ah, I never knew that. I will mostly be driving roughly 82 mph on cruise control and will be traveling from roughly 1100 feet in elevation to over 7200 feet in elevation, and then settling in at 5300 feet in elevation when driving from AZ to CO. I would imagine efficiency will go down in beast...

Thank you for the welcome! I appreciate it!

Like you, with decades of driving experience, I have never had a tire blowout. Now, with increased highway driving between AZ and CO, I am concerned about the possibility. Thus, if there is an edge, like having a tri-motor, to help control the vehicle when there is a tire blowout, I am...

We are planning on buying another EV SUV or EV truck that will replace our Sequoia. We looked at the Model X, but it is too small and does not have the cargo space needed. We want a Tesla, especially with all its features like FSD. We love driving the Cybertruck, and it would nicely fit our...
