I hope people don't try to play games with this. You are either in or you aren't. If it tanks then you "bought" at $78.00 despite not being funded on the date of the IPO.
I suspect most of us don't have the deep pockets to go toe to toe w/ MS or another big firm - especially if we're not...
I'm hoping my ACH xfer goes through, and if I don't see it process on my bank side within a couple days the document said they need payment within 4 business days of November 15th. Plenty of time to initiate a wire if the ACH $hit the bed for some reason.
While I'd love to see a nice pop...
I don't specifically disagree, and the targeted market cap is definitely down from the original $80B that was being floated, but in this world of meme coins worth tens of billions (each!) and SaaS valuations (both public & private) that are at all time highs it's hard to think that traditional...
Probably worth mentioning that the article I read saw had the following from the S-1:
"We currently anticipate that up to 0.5% of the shares of Class A common stock offered hereby will, at our request, be offered to retail investors through SoFi Securities LLC via its online brokerage platform...
I largely agree with the last posts and that of dfx. Iād conditioned myself to thinking Iād get some sort of tax credit, but ultimately itās not a driver for the decision to buy the R1S over something else that didnāt have a credit. I want the R1S, full stop, end of story.
IMO, even at the...
Thought I'd take the liberty of sharing a great book that could be timely, especially with all the TSLA comparisons I'm read about. The book is called "How to Think About Money", and beyond the basics that many people know about it really gets into the relationship we have with our money.
If...
Even though my daughters are just graduating out of Indian Princesses Iām super excited about camping with them in the R1S. Loads of power (whether driving or parked), ability to do legit off-roading vs my XC90 with 21ā all season tires, and super comfy for the kids in case inclement weather...
I know Volvo letās you download various regions/maps for this exact reason, so Iād be shocked if Rivian didnāt allow for the same. Great question but Iām not worried that theyāll miss this.
Thatās news to me, but I havenāt been on Swedespeed in ages and was going off the YouTube reviews. Our 2020 XC90 with Sensus and CarPlay has been rock solid and a massive upgrade from 2018 with the same system but slower hardware.
Itāll be interesting to compare the Rivian UI/UX with Polestar in the coming quarters and years. Polestar went all-in on Android Automotive as their system (think CarPlay was coming too) and I donāt recall seeing one review of the Polestar 2 where people werenāt incredibly impressed with it...
Haven't been on the forum much in the past 24 hours so didn't see the thread where these issues were covered, but I absolutely agree that a Rivian forum, this or others, could be catalyst for covering the issues.
I'm not familiar with production line processes in the least, but I would have...
Thatās about right. I started following him when searching for more Cybertruck content over past year+. Leans heavily Tesla, but does cover other stuff too, and generally in a pretty fair manner IMO.
Based on the pic I canāt really call him nitpicky, but seems to be an element of apologizing...
ā¦but I was a bit bummed to see how hard he was on Rivian in this one. I will admit the potential issues he circled with fit and finish (especially on the rear lower and hood area) are a bit disconcerting. Hope it was just a photo perspective issueā¦
So I went ahead and changed to the 20's for a few of the reasons posted here and one that wasn't. When it comes down to it I like having the optionality *if* we decide we want to push it offroad. The look is great, and like others have said, I won't come close to pushing it when it comes to...
Having never owned a truck and living in the SoCal suburbs I doubt I need the ATs. Iāll hit Big Bear/Mammoth/etc from time to time in the winter, and some light off roading other times of the year, but my gut tells me itās not worth going AT with that level of infrequent snow or trail driving...
This is basically me and my rationale, but hedging the Cybertruck as Iām confident in our LE R1S that will eventually be my wifeās DD (after the Cybertruck arrival).
With our endless power outages in SoCal these days the Vehicle to Home electricity was super intriguing too.
