Price of Petrol (Gas) too much for real 4x4'ing... Try it virtually with buddies in SnowRunner online!

Just watching this makes me relax like I'm there. I love how they start off by mentioning shuddering even in the game, thinking of the cost of fuel, with these big 4x4's about to set off on the dirt trail together.

This is a fun part of SnowRunner that you can do together with friends online. There are quite a few free roam trail maps that have been made by the community for this very purpose. It often takes team work to help by pushing, pulling, or winching your friend's truck. And along the way you get to see some great scenery. If you honk your horn you'll see some birds taking off, and of course the sunsets can be really stunning (you have a camera in-game to take great photos of such sights).

LOL! The Rivian R1T electric pickup truck is looking more attractive than most combustion-powered trucks in many respects

The R1T has four motors — one for each wheel — that can easily pin your head to the headrest if you really floor it. It’s a breeze to shoot up on-ramps or pass combustion-powered cars on the highway. That’s extra true in the Colorado mountains, where ICE cars can be starved for air due to the elevation.

The lack of physical controls left plenty of room for storage space, including a large mat where you can throw something like a camera or your keys and a gull-winged center console compartment.

The truck is packed with USB-C and 12V ports and even has a few standard 120V outlets (Rivian hasn’t really said whether the truck will be able to power a whole house in an emergency situation, a feature Ford says the F-150 Lightning will have). Plus, there’s tons of dry and lockable storage, from the frunk and gear tunnel (yes a gear runnel that runs the full width of the truck) to a cubby underneath the rear seat.

It has all sorts of driver assistance modes as well an even weight distribution. It has a decent 314 miles (505 km) range on a full charge, but I imagine the one issue many will be concerned about, is charge time and where to charge it.

See Rivian’s R1T electric pickup truck took me to the top of the mountain

How does the R1T perform at 12,000 feet above sea level?

Is #throwbackthursday a thing around here? I am a #Jeep guy, and on thursday's I like to share old images from days #offroad or working on my jeeps. So today I'm sharing an image from 2004 or 2005, I used to live in a place where there was a mountain with a bunch of abandoned mining land. It's since been bought and now we cant go in there, but at the time it was nothing to take a a few hours on a day off and just head in there and tool around. If i had a pile of money, i'd buy the land and turn it into an offroad recreation park.
