MotorTrend Presents: Electrifying the Outdoors

Tackling the Trans-America Trail is hard enough with a gas-powered vehicle. But what about in an electric pickup truck? Strap in with the editors of MotorTrend as they trek from coast-to-coast via the TAT in the groundbreaking, fully electric Rivian R1T.

It's hot, it's humid, and it's drop dead gorgeous. After a handoff from Leg 1's Christian Seabaugh and Aaron Gold, Miguel Cortina and Jonny Lieberman navigate the Rivian R1T through the South on Leg 2 of the Trans-America Trail.

Sean Holman and Frank Markus come together to tackle muddied two-track roads, multiple 12,000-foot alpine passes, and even a herd of goats as they direct the Rivian R1T through the terrains of Oklahoma and Colorado on Leg 3 of the Trans-America Trail.

Hell's Revenge is just the beginning as Scott Evans and Alex Stoklosa push the Rivian R1T to its limits on Leg 4 of the Trans-America Trail, pointing the truck towards every obstacle they can find across the state of Utah.

It's the final leg of the Trans-America Trail adventure, as Conner Golden and a returning Christian Seabaugh direct the Rivian R1T through Oregon's gorgeous high deserts and lush old-growth forests on their way to the Pacific Ocean.
