  1. Is this stock doomed?

    No automotive stocks are doing well right now. The industry is a bit of a mess at the moment. Rivian won’t see improvement until interest rates improve or they offer a mass market vehicle. The R2 platform.
  2. Visited Atlanta Store Opening. Couldn't convince wife on R1S over Model X

    What is a "minivan stance?" I've never heard of a minivan with an adjustable air suspension, AWD and that can effortlessly walk away from supercars at stoplights. The term "SUV" is a meaningless marketing term that's often used to describe non-trucks. The X is a crossover and the R1 is an...
  3. Autoweek review from the desert: Rivian R1S SUV Eclipses the Competition

    Exactly. My neighbors were fascinated with our R1S and poked all around. The power frunk really amazed them. Those who know, know. But there are still a lot of prospective buyers with $ to spend who would love one of these, though don't follow this all very closely.
  4. Rumor: Tri-motor Cybertruck $98,990 starting price ?

    For the CT to be considered anything more than an ugly dumpster on wheels, it really needs to become the "everyman's truck." At $49.9K it certainly would have been. At six figures, it most certainly will not be.
  5. Toyota Redux: "Toyota nears mass production of solid-state batteries"

    As the world's largest automaker and producer of vehicles that utilize farm tractor engine technology,Toyota has been pushing anti-EV propaganda for years. They heavily influence all of the Japanese automakers. Their embarrassing hydrogen efforts and solid state claims have been nothing more...
  6. R1S car camping = successful experience

    Very cool! I'm going to check those out later. I love discovering these things!
  7. Visited Atlanta Store Opening. Couldn't convince wife on R1S over Model X

    Tesla just raised the price of the Model X Plaid by $5k. We own a '22 Model X and a new R1S. This is our 2nd Model X. The fit and finish of our '17 was typical for an American car, but the new one is in a different league entirely. The ride in the Tesla is superior to the R1S. So is the height...
  8. Dumb Rivian owner at Barstow RAN, hogging the trailer spot with no trailer

    This OP rant is completely out of line, and it's a level of entitlement that's kind of gross. This charger can accommodate a trailer, but is not for the exclusive use of those pulling a trailer. If there's no signage that explicitly says who can and can't use the charger, and the other chargers...
  9. R1S car camping = successful experience

    Are there lights in the mirrors?
  10. Sneak peek of Halloween Mode 2023

    Gotta say, very disappointed with all the whining and unsolicited suggestions.
  11. Canceled my R1S order :-(

    The OP has shown himself to be what he really is. I actually can’t believe his responses. There is no vehicle that could satisfy such an opinionated windbag … certainly not the second vehicle from a startup. His mother needs to give him a hug, an adderall and his Linus blanket.
  12. Conspiracy to sink Rivian? Wall Street Journal article

    No one is suggesting that Fox News isn’t trash. It’s established as an entertainment business, not a real news business. You are posting a link to the opinion section. That’s always been right leaning. Even before Murdoch.
  13. Conspiracy to sink Rivian? Wall Street Journal article

    They also include very reputable news publications like Barrons and Marketwatch. In all fairness, WSJ is NOT Fox News Entertainment or Fox Business. It may be controlled by the same family, but Fox isn’t even within the same company as their legitimate financial publications. That said, there...
  14. 2nd week owning...new R1S owner review

    I have the 21” wheels to maximize range. 90% of the time it drives wonderfully smooth. On some poorly maintained concrete roads, the undulating is there, and I’ve gotten complaints from people in the 2nd row on one particular stretch. Lowering the suspension helps control that a little. Overall...
  15. Canceled my R1S order :-(

    I read about halfway through, then stopped somewhere in the middle. Some cars just aren't for you. It's strange that you wrote a novel about it. I agree with you about the turn signal. Strange noise. Also too quiet. Also, IMHO, too high on the display and I can't see when they are on because...
  16. Wifi Hotspot Range

    I came here with the exact same question. Glad camp mode keeps Wi-Fi going. I’m going to dig out an old apple airport to use as an extender. I don't see why that wouldn’t work.
  17. Rivian CEO: We're not worried about Tesla's Cybertruck

    Did you read the article you posted? It says nothing about consumers. Ford focused entirely on commercial fleets. I know of three small business owners who waited years for any commercial-spec lighting they could get their hands on. But they didn't offer the volume that Ford wanted. Maybe the...
  18. Ben Hardy Rivian vs Tesla owners

    This was an unfunny and unimaginative video. Or maybe I'm a humorless fanboy because I own both.
  19. Early Tesla Cybertruck Fetches $400K At Auction

    Within a matter of minutes, these things will be rolling off the assembly line and readily available... soon to be at a production rate of hundreds of thousands per year. And immediately after they emerge from the Austin plant they'll be on BAT for a slight premium. So I am always suspicious of...
