In this thrilling episode of Rich Rebuilds, our beloved host Rich takes us on an electrifying adventure as he explores his passion for military vehicles and puts his Rivian electric pickup truck to the ultimate test. With a fervent love for all things military, Rich shares his favorite military vehicles, from the SR71 Blackbird to the B2 Spirit. But it's his beloved Humvee that he misses the most, prompting him to purchase another one and ponder the irony of paying taxes twice on a vehicle that was originally funded by his tax dollars.

But the real excitement begins when Rich embarks on a long-haul towing journey with his Rivian, braving freezing temperatures and towing heavy loads. As he pushes the limits of his electric truck, he questions the practicality of an electric pickup truck without a reliable charging network. Can he survive the journey without the convenience of Tesla's charging network? Rich, being no stranger to towing with traditional gas-powered vehicles, is determined to find out.

And then there's the Cybertruck, Tesla's latest offering that has been making waves in the automotive world. Rich delves into the highly debated video comparing the Cybertruck to a Porsche, raising valid concerns about bias and the choice of vehicles used in the test. He challenges the outcome, proposing a race between his own Porsche and the Cybertruck, with a hefty reward on the line.

Throughout the episode, Rich faces various challenges, from trailer maintenance to range anxiety and the struggle to find charging stations. But he remains undeterred, showcasing his determination and passion for pushing the boundaries of electric vehicles. And as he finally arrives at his destination to meet a Navy SEAL who builds H1 Hummers, he unveils his newly purchased H1 Hummer, a testament to his unwavering love for military-inspired vehicles.
