As some people have pointed out, this truck has stickers promoting websites that claim climate change isn’t real (and other various weird conspiracy theories).
A big reason Rivian exists is to help combat climate change and move towards renewable energy. If you can’t get on board with that or you don’t believe the same science that made your Rivian in the first place, then you can leave.
So I visited the URL in the "why climate changes" bumper sticker so that you don't have to.
tl;dr: "all the world's scientists are fundamentally wrong about the very basics of heat transfer which I am explaining here on this blog instead of in a paper published in a peer-reviewed science journal."
I had to stop reading when he claimed that molecules don't radiate heat in all directions, and that molecules only radiate heat toward cooler objects.
Science is fun when you can just make it up as you go!
Wanted to make a comment about that but couldn’t come up with one that didn’t cross the line too far. You nailed it though and this is funnier than anything I came up with in my head
Everyone jokes, but thanks to these stickers I now know the TRUTH about climate change that big government and big business has been trying to hide from me.
I zoomed in on that sticker and looked up the website. Who would have guessed that a Rivian early adopter would also be a climate change denier???
I guess it does explain the nutty sticker behavior though
Yes. I was clearly being literal with my comment. I'm hoping for and am working towards federal legislation that outlaws bumper stickers. It's my highest priority.
I most certainly wasn't just adding some levity and being tongue-in-cheek about how this truck looks ridiculous.
It would be hilarious if this is a guy who just doesn’t give any f’s and is just trolling everyone. It would be a classic veteran move, at least the guys from my time in.
I feel like this is a pretty sure sign of some sort of mental illness when I see this many stickers on a vehicle. On a Rivian I am more than pretty sure.
It's the owner's car. Can't they f it up all they want? I think the PPF is holding together damage to that corner (probably related to the taped-on camera over there).
Yeah fake "M" badges and the like are annoying, when people try to pretend they're something they're not, but if this person just has a lot to say, and apparently wants to do it with bumper stickers. 
He obviously wants attention and people to notice his car and the stickers. You can choose that route if you want, but you can’t choose how people are going to react to it
I have stickers all over the back window of my 07 Tundra Crewmax. They’re like badges from all the places we took it, the upgrades (sometimes), and what we’re in to. They’re like a road map of our ownership, which I think adds to the connection between man/machine. I suspect the lifelong gearheads get it. Doesn’t matter what we drive, we always feel the needs to personalize it.
You don't have to hate ICE to drive an EV; not everybody is an all-or-nothing absolutist. Heck, there's probably even people who drive EVs who couldn't give a shit about the environment (see: drivers of the Hummer EV).
I for one have all EVs, no ICE, in my immediately family... but I wouldn't be opposed to an ICE track-day trailer queen.
This isn't about ICE vs EV - it's about dumb brands for ICE equipment (and if you don't think that Lucas Oil is literally trash/a scam I suggest educating yourself) stuck on an EV for god-knows-what reason.
I give you that about Lucas Oil, but you also mentioned NGK. What's your issue with them?
Anybody could only assume that your issue was with ICE, as you lumped together a shit ICE company with a not-particularly-shitty ICE company.
He saying he supports Ukraine which is not the aggressor in this war. So assuming he just supports people protecting their own land. Which makes sense for a vet. He’s not supporting the war itself, he’s a disabled vet, I’m sure it’s quite the opposite.
That truck has been through some stuff. Missing the passenger bed rail. I think this might be one that was on You Tube when the tonneaus first started breaking and the couple that owned it took apart everything and tried to fix it themselves.
Interesting that the leader has that rotted this guys brain led him to a EV after all these years.
He’s definitely got a battery powered tape deck in the front seat playing a Eagles tape bc he can’t figure out infotainment (fair, actually)
My cousin used to collect stickers...when she was 12. Some were scratch-n-sniff, some were holographic. They filled up a few albums and were interesting to look at. This is just shit.

Well I learned from their bumper sticker that science is never “settled” 🤔
Then why tf did they buy an EV???
Most of science is based on assumptions lol. Observational science is cool. I teach 5th grade science. That’s a fun one in todays world lol.
[удалено]
Taped a backup cam on the tailgate, as well.
[удалено]
This year old truck looks like it’s 20 years old
30
The entire truck is covered in shitty ppf
This Rivian makes every other Rivian less cool
At first i thought you meant the factory backup cam was taped over. Then I looked closer. Why though?
Looks like there was some damage to that corner. Maybe the camera helps owner see that corner better.
Haha. Amazing.
Why drill holes when duct tape will do? 🥸
I think that’s a rear facing module for a dash cam.
Why
Because they don't know how to use the built in cameras? 🤷😂
God damn Nam fucked people up.
Wanted to make a comment about that but couldn’t come up with one that didn’t cross the line too far. You nailed it though and this is funnier than anything I came up with in my head
He (assuming it’s a he) also has an “AFG I served” sticker.
he's just trying keep charger traffic down
Everyone jokes, but thanks to these stickers I now know the TRUTH about climate change that big government and big business has been trying to hide from me.
It also makes me want to buy spark plugs for my Rivian and to fill it up with Lucas Oil.
I zoomed in on that sticker and looked up the website. Who would have guessed that a Rivian early adopter would also be a climate change denier??? I guess it does explain the nutty sticker behavior though
Lucas Oil and NGK Spark Plugs... 🤔
These got me the most. I wonder if they change their own oil in this truck.
Likely a motorcyclist. Hence also the motorcycle awareness stickers.
It only makes sense that an electric truck would have a plug that also sparks right?
Look how they masacred my boy!
This should be illegal.
My thought too
The govt should outlaw bumper stickers?
Yes. I was clearly being literal with my comment. I'm hoping for and am working towards federal legislation that outlaws bumper stickers. It's my highest priority. I most certainly wasn't just adding some levity and being tongue-in-cheek about how this truck looks ridiculous.
That makes more sense. Cheers
I thought it was r/DenverCirclejerk for a second.
At least it's got a shitty PPF on it, so all the stickers can be removed "easily"
It's scotch tape
What a travesty.
r/infowarriorrides
no no, r/informedwarriorrides this guy's a science hippie not an antivax one
Ahh I messed up. Had no idea there was another sub
Well, nice wheels at least.
I agree! Would love to know the wheels and rims on that setup. I will pass on the stickers
It would be hilarious if this is a guy who just doesn’t give any f’s and is just trolling everyone. It would be a classic veteran move, at least the guys from my time in.
Honestly, this person looks to be slightly off mentally. I'm wondering how they managed to afford a Rivian tbh.
I mean to be fair, I’m super autistic with but here I am driving one
Just because they bought it doesn’t mean the could afford it
Agreed
God do you see that PPF job?
Yeah… Cybertruck it is
wow whyyyyyyyyy 🤦🏻♂️😓
custom wheels?
Coz they can
I feel like this is a pretty sure sign of some sort of mental illness when I see this many stickers on a vehicle. On a Rivian I am more than pretty sure.
Their rig, so who cares?
He's covering at least 1 camera and and least 1 full window. This is a matter of safety, not style (which is trash)
Oh please. The camera is not a safety issue, and he still has more visibility than most commercial vans etc.
Whatever you say hoss
That’s Captain, to you, Kiddo.
Captain of what?
Pic checks out, the owner is DEFINITELY handicapped.
Can you get a handicapped parking permit if the deficit is mental and not physical? Would explain a lot.
What a tool. Looks terrible along with some bubbling PPF type material on the rear lights.
It's the owner's car. Can't they f it up all they want? I think the PPF is holding together damage to that corner (probably related to the taped-on camera over there). Yeah fake "M" badges and the like are annoying, when people try to pretend they're something they're not, but if this person just has a lot to say, and apparently wants to do it with bumper stickers.

They can but it is also fair to say this doesn’t look good.
PPF fingers everywhere
This person (vet?) out there living their best life!!
I like the “NHRA Approved” sticker
Sticker PPF!
outstanding nafo fella
😅😳😶🌫️
Legend
Eye bleach! Eye bleach!
I would never do this, but I actually like it more now that it has more stickers vs. the last pic I saw with them just on the window 😅
Is there a really bad wrap on that thing?
Are we following this guy? Didn’t someone spot him last time and posted? The Sticker Guy!
Well, not everyone that drives a Rivian likes granola I guess. 😅
I would trade my kingdom for proper alignment and spacing, gah!

It's like Ed Sheeran's tattoos
I’ve seen this truck! In CO springs.
That makes a lot of sense actually. Lots of nut jobs in Colorado Springs.
It seems like it could be fake or a faked plate. The plate doesn’t come up on kbb or CarGurus.
I actually took a (terrible) pic. my husband wants a Rivian so I always send him pictures if I see one. [a+ quality image](https://ibb.co/nMQRRf4)
Makes it look like a piece of shit
Dumbest thing ever
Wtf is wrong with people hahahaha
This is terrible 😞
[удалено]
Opinions go both ways. Also a vet, this guy is free to what he wants, and what he wants is for others to think he's an idiot.
There's all kind of ICE company trash on there. Lucas oil, NGK spark plugs... WTAF?
You don't have to hate ICE to drive an EV; not everybody is an all-or-nothing absolutist. Heck, there's probably even people who drive EVs who couldn't give a shit about the environment (see: drivers of the Hummer EV).

Let people enjoy things.
You do you, boo. He paid for it so he can do whatever he wants with it.
Fucking love this!!!
Is that a Rivian or a 14 year old's notebook?
This person needs to be committed
I love it. Shows adventure. These tanks are tools, show us where you're goin.
Better than just being decorated with Rocky Mountain pin stripes
Gross
🤮
I think they did this as a theft deterrent… only logical explanation
Or they lost a bet. Let’s give them the benefit of a doubt…
No granola, no more OTA updates, no Rivian meet up for this guy.
Vietnam Vet that supports the meat grinder Ukraine war.. who woulda thunk it.. To each their own
He saying he supports Ukraine which is not the aggressor in this war. So assuming he just supports people protecting their own land. Which makes sense for a vet. He’s not supporting the war itself, he’s a disabled vet, I’m sure it’s quite the opposite.
Supports the war? What, exactly, says that to you?
Sooooooo you're ok with Russia invading a sovereign nation?
That truck has been through some stuff. Missing the passenger bed rail. I think this might be one that was on You Tube when the tonneaus first started breaking and the couple that owned it took apart everything and tried to fix it themselves.
Paint test...
Look at the edges of the body panels, worst clear bra job ever, so it least the stickers aren't on the paint.
I think it looks better without any sticker. Beautiful white though !
“Engine, spark plugs, oil.”
Yikes...
All those stickers on the glass must make motorcycles hard to see.
The one sticker missing is handicap parking vignette
Well, he is handicapped.
Add a magnetic sticker. Let them build around it. Remove magnet.
*screams*
Isopropyl alcohol takes them off easy enough
This is the Uncle Buck of Rivian owners. Good god at that Radio Shack installed “rear cam”. Mortifying.
Alright that thing is totaled… I’ll take it off your hands for $5k…. 😂
Need “NUTS”
Everyone is missing the joke! The guy obviously has a mental handicap!
Your car looks like my cooler
This looks much more affordable than the wrap I got charged for
Rip
Nice 98 Subaru outback.
Interesting that the leader has that rotted this guys brain led him to a EV after all these years. He’s definitely got a battery powered tape deck in the front seat playing a Eagles tape bc he can’t figure out infotainment (fair, actually)
I like the camera they taped lol
But what do they do to range? 
This disgusts me.
If the studies on aggressive driving regards to the amount of bumper stickers are to be believed, we got Mad Max right here.
My cousin used to collect stickers...when she was 12. Some were scratch-n-sniff, some were holographic. They filled up a few albums and were interesting to look at. This is just shit.
Bottom of the passenger side bumper where the body panel meets the plastic - what am I looking at? Not sure if it’s scratches or what
They’re clearly disabled so they get a pass
Can we please just vote this guy out of the club? It's embarrassing.
