What was revolutionary about R1T?…battery instead of ICE is ‘95 Honda Ridgeline form factor?…this is evolutionary? Steer-by-wire, 48V, gigE network, FSD, largest ever stamping…revolutionary. Love my R1, this was more about insecurity around CT. Dont get it. Why bother?
Amazing amount of negativity on this board re Cybertruck. Can tell you R1 rarely, if ever mentioned on CT Boards, or usually in positive or comparison . Why so much hate for another EV? CT is amazing in many revolutionary ways, regardless of what u think of exterior. R1 great, but is evolutionary.
Left out biggest possible upgrades...improved cameras (currents ones terrible for $100K vehicle), heat pump (much needed in colder climates) and (maybe) NACS
Has anyone w/pre-price hike voucher chosen to lease? Curious to see what buyout amount is. Since I assume residual would ~$65-67K on $100K MSRP and Pre-Price ~$80K, total depreciation only $13-15K. Need to run #'s, but thinking pre-price MSRP w/$7,500 credit could be way to go and buyout early...
This is result of huge backlog of R1S orders from 3+ years ago. Even then Tesla sold as many MY in one month than R1S all year. Rivian is losing $43K/vehicle & $5B annually. With only $9B left, hoe does RIV make to 2026 R2/3? How much add cost is R2/3. R1T decline also not sign.
Agreed. Hopefully the Chinese Communist Companies are never allowed into US. They do not create, just copy. Volvo and Lotus are a joke and have no EV experience. Do anybof these have a 3-row SUV or pickup?
They need to stop losing $33K/vehicle sold or else will run out if $ or RJ gets ANOTHER capital raise, which will FURTHER DILUTE existing shareholder value. Company may survive, but existing SH hurt again
So you think Elon decided to open up the SC network b/c he wanted “free money from the government”? He doesn’t have enough already? Is he in it only for the money (what are his material possessions ie house?) what would we have done if he didn't open up SC network for long toad trips? We should...
He is a Rivian apologist. My R1S cant even do route effectively v Tesla. FSD lightyears ahead of Driver+, Rivian wont ever catch up. Tesla way far ahead on SW, not even close. His girl is useless and adds NO value. Constantly references $20k upgrade package, but fails to state that package...
Rewarding loyal shareholders and customers who have funds to actually purchase Foundation Series CT. Easy to put down several $100s to get multiple CT’s and attempt to flip for profit or no intention to buy more than one. No different the Loyalty programs for any company, current...
