See the Rivian R1T pull a semi truck

We don’t have much information about the preceding accident but the video clearly shows a blue Rivian R1T pulling a semi truck out of the field. It is raining and the field looks really muddy and it seems the semi must have got stuck while turning around. Have a look:

Now, the whole situation took place in Normal, Illinois. There are questions flying around whether it’s a marketing ploy or real life just delivered the best advertising opportunity for Rivian. We know that the R1T is an immensely capable truck, it can easily tow 11,000lbs but the semi in the video - that must have been good 17,000lbs. By all means it’s an impressive showing by R1T, it pulls the white semi with zero fuss, as if it was a Toyota Corolla stuck at a drive through.

How lucky for the semi driver to get stuck just to be rescued by R1T? And all of it happening in Normal? Out of all the places in the US it had to happen in Normal. So - pulling semis out of trouble is the new normal for Rivian R1T? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
