"luxury needs to be removed." No, because there is nothing to remove. Rivian has never marketed itself as a luxury brand. You won't find that word on their web site. They are not trying to slide into luxury brand status. This has been discussed here and on other forums many times. People equate...

I'm a believer in demand driven product development/marketing/sales. IMO the industry may be "failing to deliver" because despite what EV enthusiasts want to believe, there is not enough demand and profit potential to warrant their capital investment to bring these products to market.

"Not a lot of car for the value" isn't a meaningful sentence. Stating that it's "not a lot of car" is a value statement by itself. I can only assume you mean "Not a lot of car for the price". I disagree with that. 835 hp, 5 to 7 seats, serious off-road chops, extensive tech features. Some of...

This might just be the lamest article ever by C&D. "To Carolina squat a Rivian R1T, you need to find a steep hill and park with the rear end elevated above the front. Select "level truck" from the Camp mode menus, and over the next couple of minutes, the Rivian will do its level best to put the...

This patent is pretty detailed with a lot of references to physical design specifics, so it might be a real product. Or not. 🤣

No. Tesla failing to achieve L3 was not 4D chess. They might have thought it was 4D chess, but they didn't realize they were actually playing 2D checkers in a 3D world.

Let's see: VW has been selling for 88 years, €321 Billion sales last year, €8.9 Billion in profit on 8.98 million vehicles Rivian is has been selling 3+ years, $5 Billion sales last year, $3.6 billion net loss, on 42,000 vehicles Hmmm. Do ya think any of those numbers has something to do with...

IMO It's a bit of a mess as to how this is going to work as far as payment goes. As @KBabione mentioned, I recall paying a fee WITH my registration renewal. That makes the most sense. But reading the legislation [75-9024], it appears to me that the fee will be separated from registration, sent...

"This is the actual plant where r2s are being made. Directly behind where they were standing is the action." "This is not just “warehouse space”. While you are correct about no robots this is still a very crucial part of the plant." "Correct, but this is where all of our inventory is for the...

Just got the update.

That's my point. Someone who is not familiar with software development might provide a vague report. They don't have the understanding of what it takes to provide a proper bug report that details the specific steps and existing conditions to reproduce a problem. It can be significantly more...

That would be great - as long as they do some screening of the people they select. IMO it should be people who have some experience in the software development lifecycle and know how to properly document a bug report. "Sometimes when I click on button X nothing happens" is an essentially...

My home owner's insurance, obviously a bit difference than car insurance, has a "frequent" claim penalty clause. Our area had a hailstorm that damage a lot of roofs. Erie Insurance came to me unsolicited (I didn't see any damage), wanting to inspect my roof for damage. THEY decided they wanted...

I never bothered to study the struts, but I assumed they were an air bladder type of design. Unless I missed something, this is built more like a pneumatic cylinder with O-Rings and no bladder? If so, they are not that hard to rebuild if you have the right tools and replacement parts. I've...

Agree.... Also, how many people were in the workflow at Rivian from the report of the problem to writing of the release note? It's quite easy for words used to describe the issue to change/morph/evolve over such a workflow. I've seen it happen at our company.

Somebody has to say it, so.... s00n

I think OP needs to see this doctor;

You forgot shhh carplay

I was just going to post this same thought. It's entirely possible OP was told "NEW" in the context of "We'll get you a new (to you) truck, we're not fixing your old truck". As in the phrase "New to me" when referring to a used vehicle. It's just not realistic in most universes to expect they...

Well, if people stopped creating stupid AI generated videos of (name your favorite animal) (name your favorite activity) it would probably cut the power demand by 50%.
