If they can’t hang on to produce the R2, that would be a huge hit. That said, this AM the stock is $10.46. The 11/1 10.5 calls are $.29. Hence, that’s $290 in profit for 1000 shares, more than 2%. If you sell the 11/1 10 calls @$.57, you’d make $110, or 1%. These are covered calls, which require...

The difference with Tesla 12V failure is that they come to your house, replace it, and charge you $130. I know complaints are over represented on forums. I hope the R2 I’m waiting for won’t have this stuff. I might fall for an Audi Q6 first. Continuing with my Tesla M3 L/R for now.

It’s one of the new “better health” options Rivian provides. No processed pork, no sodium. Yours has no Tofu button?

Sooner the better for them and us.

Tru dat!

Have been selling covered calls on mine. About even despite price drops. For me, below $10 as of 10/19/24. Then sell the weekly $10,5 or $11 calls.

Have owned several EV’s. Gave up my R1S early reservation, as decided the vehicle was too large for us. Currently have a Tesla M3 L/R, and have a R2 on order. But, as it’s at least a couple of years away, I’ve been test driving a couple of things. Equinox EV (non-starter) and BMW iX50 (nice...

Lots of theories, no real facts. Carry your adaptor, all will be good.

Awfully big for empty nesters, but a good thought. My wife has a RAV4 Prime, I’d like something more in that size. Towing not an issue for us. Thx for the ideas.

Waiting 2+ years is tough for me. Getting in and out of a Tesla M3 L/R (great car) is a pain at 78 yoa. Looked at the R2 in Pasadena, liked both it and the R3. Drove a Chevy Equinox EV—non starter. Looking at the BMW ix50 and Audi Q6 (not yet out.) Don’t love with the BMW’s rear styling, but...

As someone who grew up in the 50’s and 60’s (1st DL 1962) the idea of a Jeep having a MSRP of $71k is ghastly. I’m in Hawaii at least a couple of times a year, and drive my 2010 Kia Sportage I have there. $9500 used! And it doesn’t bounce all over the road. It will die one day, maybe get a used...

Yea, that’d be great, if you could get a cover sheet on those TPS reports… Besides, they switched from Swingline to Boston.

I’m wait listed for an R2. I have 2 vehicles with their own nav systems: Tesla M3 L/R, and a Mercedes Sprinter based RV. Far and away the Tesla nav system is better. Any business (rather than an address) I enter pops up on the list. It gives me the route time to arrival, and SOC upon...

Now an electric 4WD Maverick might sway me.

I had an EA experience in my prior Ionic 5 I wouldn’t want to repeat. Charged to nearly 100% at Harris Ranch, off the I5 in CA. Had 30 min free charging sessions, went over a bit, got charged $1.75. Decided to charge once more in Calabasas (Walmart) to get home to OC. Wouldn’t start charging...

First an analyst downgrade, then production declines from supply issues. They will manufacture fewer cars (46-49k) in 2024 than they did in 2023 (53k). They obviously need more product, and at a more favorable price point. Tesla increased their sales dramatically when they produced the Model 3...

Similar article to the above reference in the WSJ 9/29/24. I really believe it’s dealers choice.

See below! It’s really what I personally like, but there are issues like that below, as well as lots of complaints by automotive writers. And in my case, I bought my M3L/R not because of the nearly complete screen control, but in spite of it. Fast car, good looks, moderate price, excellent...

To each his own. I do note Rivian touting the “haptic knobs” on the R2 steering wheels. And for me personally, I can adjust HVAC with knobs without taking my eyes off the road. I have an R2 on order, had an Ionic5 and own a Tesla M3 L/R, so I have personal experience with them. Not sure I can...

A couple of design issues that EV buyers don’t like: screen/digital controls over the HVAC and wipers. Haptics/manual controls for these seem obvious. Possibly add in the side mirrors. It’s cheaper for manufactures to use the screen. My prior Ionic 5 “split the baby” with the HVAC controls...
