Meet Mike

It was created by Mike Kantorski a Rivian owner, storyteller, and lifelong outdoor enthusiast with one simple goal:

To help people explore smarter.

What started as a YouTube channel documenting Rivian ownership has evolved into something bigger; a place for practical guides, gear recommendations, ownership insights, and community stories from people who love getting outside.

You’ll find:

  • Weekly EV and Rivian news breakdowns

  • Real-world ownership experiences

  • Gear guides and recommendations

  • Delivery checklists and owner resources

  • Community spotlight stories

The Adventure Outpost is built for people who care about adventure but also care about making informed decisions.

This site is independently operated and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Rivian Automotive, Inc.

Meet Arlo

Arlo is my golden retriever and full-time adventure companion. He’s been there for early morning trail walks, snowy test drives, and more back-of-the-Rivian coffee breaks than I can count. If you see a bit more sand in the cargo area or a blue spikey ball rolling around in a video, that’s probably his doing.
