Rivians are now no more expensive than any other high er end pickup truck or SUV at similar trim level. Just try buying any sort of high horsepower pickup loaded with luxury features. $90k to start.

Not complaining too hard, but there already is a Tesla and EA chargers in Chipley while a huge area of the region is vastly underserved, especially in lower Georgia and Alabama. There are a number of towns in these areas midway between Pensacola and Atlanta that desperately need ANY rapid...
Rivian better start playing the political game and quickly issue public statement they will hire specifically American and perhaps even Georgia job talent in management engineering and design- the higher paying jobs at any cororpation. They need to get ahead of any political games and Elon. This...
A huge problem these days with any ICE vehicle especially buying used is the fact that they are mostly overstressed boosted engines and way too many owners are just bad at regular maintenance. If you let the motor oil go Too long just once it will trash any modern engine very quickly. Way too...
