Indeed. With the R2 destined for the EU market, they have to be building out service centers. Or possibly partnering with VW.

Just got back from a riverboat cruise around the Netherlands and Belgium. Lots of things to see. But alas, didn’t see any Rivians. Wife said she could tell I missed the truck. I kept saying I was fine. Anyway, here are a few pics that caught my eye.

Ugh, patent publication published today, originally filed in October 2024.

Oh mighty Count, may I humbly suggest hanging a picture frame on your wall with nothing in it? When the commoners visit, you can refer them to your Picture of Dorian Gray.

I sometimes wonder whether videos of vehicles in off-road situations are judged by the existence of spinning wheels and not by what the vehicle is actually doing.
