Can someone objectively explain if this will have any impact on their charging network or their ability to rollout and install chargers? If not, isn't this just trimming fat? Similar to rivian cutting out guides?

California's already bought into EVs, (and they're still buying Teslas). And you're wrong about the percentages. It's maybe only a third that would give a damn enough to not buy because of politics. People in the middle, like me, couldn't care less about a company's politics. People that skew...

Of course it's Elon Musk's politics. It's just that California's purchasing decisions don't outweigh the need for Tesla to be the preferred EV manufacturer throughout most of America. His politics don't bother half the country and those are the markets where the greatest growth potential exists.

Same. Georgia power gives us very good rates between 11-7. Our commutes have my wife driving 100 miles or more a day and 200 or more for me on average. We both plug in on that charging schedule daily to make EVs work for our family.

We installed three (one in a separate building/workshop). Necessary IMHO.

I'll be that guy... If they wanted to say what happened with the land, they should have bought it themselves.

Why would it matter? They either build the plant to achieve long term profitability or they stay relegated to Illinois and bleed out.

I'd agree with this. If they built closer to Lagrange/further south, they'd have found the communities more supportive of a plant.

My money is on it being unlocked the whole time.

That's the significant part to me. I'm not confident my fat ass wouldn't bend them from getting a tent and just sleeping in it. I'll be waiting for this tent though...

Happy to hear. Establishing a presence in Georgia and contributing to the economy here was a primary reason the wife and I bought Rivians.

I just bought a bunch of stanzo brand fedoras from him. They're nice.

Got $45k bruh?

I was hoping for that one but got a reliability defects survey instead.

Title sucks. I clicked on this thread hoping to read a story about some kind of drug trafficking interdiction/high speed pursuit with an asset seizure/forfeiture involving a Rivian.

Combined 50k miles between both me and my wife's Rivians. No broken windshields. Completely different commutes.

Rivian won't succeed if they waste money and time catering to Karens. I know there are a disproportionate number of them in the granola crowd, so that Venn diagram overlaps a lot, but those customers always end up taking more than they give in the form of time. So my ass ends up sitting on hold...

I've been lucky with my loaners, so for as long as I kept getting good ones, I'd feel comfortable making them honor their warranty if I was going to stick with the company. If decided on buying a different vehicle from a different company, you end up in the same position you're in now (new...

I get that, but that's what you do to keep your original setup and loan.

You could have used a loaner and waited for them to fix your issues.
