I need a date for that R2 though. Let me know when I can expect a new car so I can buy one!

People cross shop different categories all the time. Heck, I'm comparing all EVs. I have different likes and no one vehicle checks off all boxes. Maybe you want the most energy efficient, well sedans will likely do that. But maybe you want a car to handle a toddler's mess, well, a Rivian might...

I was trying so hard not to bring politics into it🤣. There is so much more about the distressed economy I wish to add as it is all so much worse than I predicted during the Q4 call in February. I just hope Rivian weathers the storm. I really like the company, and I've never been a car person...

Am I the only one wondering why he's in a bowtie and suspenders. Was he in a wedding and then thought, "I need to escape"?.

Didn't say it was coming to an end. But the economy is showing the warning signs that if something is not changed, we will hit a 2008 situation soon. I won't go into things as that will bring in politics. But there are caveats when it comes to your statistics that hide bigger problems...

You know, I recently saw a video that the US unearths so many rare minerals from typical mining operations but it is all thrown away as waste. If the mining company update the refining and separating process, the US could supply its own rare earths almost entirely on its own, but its unlike any...

Not as strange as you think. If a job was taken on by others prior to making it its own position (ex. a software engineer of a new company taking on administrative duties that didn't previously exist as the company expands until the work starts impeding the engineers main task and the work is...

People still don't know about Rivian. In my area, the Rivian Marketing director says maybe 15% awareness in this area of the east coast. Putting it in a high traffic area, ex. Tysons Corner in the DMV area, helps with awareness. Afterall, Rivian can't legally sell through these areas, only order...

Not really speculation. RJ said this multiple times that the Georgia plant would do the exports. So they won't be looking at getting an R2 until 2028.

They can teach you in a driving test, but it doesn't mean you use it in real life. I don't think I ever backed in until like 10 years after my test because there was no need. Still not comfortable with it, but I drive a 2018 nissan sentra and the back up camera isn't great (can't see the right...

Really need a comma between the never and not. The double negative made me think you would always buy a tesla. Had to go ack and reread t after the diss about the basic furniture. 🤣

It's finally opening! Here is their grand opening event schedule. I am considering going to the hike that weekend. Electric Vehicles in McLean | Rivian Space

It does have a slight moped feel. I don't think this is meant to be a full on e-bike but a hybrid for long distance commuting. It would fall in line with things that they said about alternative forms of transportation. Also depends on who the intended audience is for the bike. If form and...

Putting aside the fact that snow, mud, and heavy rain areas need a wiper, I just don't trust drivers. There are so many people who don't use blinkers or drive like maniacs, and its easier to guess if they are going to recklessly switch lanes and pull up and try to pass you on the side and enter...

This study ignores that batteries can be 90% recycled which would lower emissions overtime as well as a greener electricity grid over time. It really depends in what state you live in. WAshington state for example has a very clean grid, unlike Wyomig or West Virginia which has some of the...

Yeah... human rights... you know we're on a human rights watch list now, right?

Well when you have an older car like I do that doesn't have a blind spot warning or exterior cameras or even an alarm in your rear to tell you something is behind you or to the side, it becomes a lot more important don't it. Also, I do like the option in case snow and ice causes issues and I can...

Speak for yourself. Where I live it rains and snows a lot. I know most people in this forum live in CA, FL, Tx, and CO, but don't forget the rest of the states where we very much get all four seasons. Really don't want to drive to VT again in a snow storm without a back wiper again. Getting out...

My argument was that peole act like people cross shopping two complete different vehicles is strange when any vehicle can be cross shopped with anything. Even buying houses you could cross shop a small condo in the city or a larger house in the suburbs, both very different but may fullfill...
