Rivian has already proved it can build desirable electric adventure vehicles, but the R2 is different. This is the smaller, more affordable, more practical SUV aimed directly at the heart of the EV market — where the Tesla Model Y has dominated for years. In this video, Nik Miles drives the Rivian R2 in Park City, Utah, and looks at why this SUV matters so much for Rivian’s future. With up to 345 miles of estimated range, available dual-motor all-wheel drive, 656 horsepower, a 3.6-second zero-to-sixty time, a drop-down rear glass, flat-folding seats, clever storage, and access to Tesla Superchargers through NACS, the R2 could be Rivian’s biggest moment yet. But the real question is not just whether the R2 is fast or clever. It is whether Rivian can build enough of them, price them right, and convince mainstream buyers to choose it over Tesla, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, and the rest of the EV field. Is the Rivian R2 the SUV that finally puts Rivian shoulder to shoulder with Tesla? Watch the full drive and find out.

America is turning 250, and the way we cross the country has changed almost beyond belief. Once, families packed wagons, risked everything, and spent months chasing a new life across dangerous trails. Today, Nik Miles crosses America in a Ford Mustang Mach-E GT with navigation, climate control, charging tech, podcasts, and BlueCruise. In this episode, we compare the real cost of crossing America by wagon with the modern American road trip — and why Ford’s Fourth of July “Employee Pricing for All” campaign fits into a much bigger story about freedom, mobility, and how the automobile changed the country. From wagon wheels to the Model T to today’s electric vehicles, America’s urge to move has never gone away. The technology just got a lot more comfortable.

America’s newest status symbol may not be a sports car anymore. It might be a rugged SUV with leather, brass accents, 35-inch tires, and enough outdoor credibility to make a luxury campground nervous. This is the Ford Bronco Filson, a collaboration between Ford and the legendary Seattle outdoor brand Filson. It blends serious off-road hardware with heritage luxury, including quilted leather, woven materials, Filson-inspired storage, Sasquatch off-road capability, Fox shocks, locking differentials, and a 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6. But the real story is bigger than one SUV. Luxury buyers are changing. Chrome, polish, and valet parking are being replaced by mud, dogs, boots, coffee, camping gear, and the idea that something expensive should look better with a few scratches. In this episode, Nik Miles takes a closer look at whether the Bronco Filson is just another special edition — or one of the smartest lifestyle vehicles Ford has built in years.
