predicting a $45b valuation primary supported by projections of EU and USA government subsidies and financial incentives/support to drive sales and government procurements. I mean how can the US NP And Forestry service not have orders in for R1S's and R1T's?... If the current administration...

Investing in a company that has very little revenue, massive CAPEX and debt, moderate growth (because their products cannot go mainstream/high volume at the current price point), and by and large will not be profitable for a decade is a pure momentum play. Do it with money you're willing to lose...

I emailed Rivian customer service about 3 more affordable ideas than the R1S/R1T I would like to see... 1) Rivian Rally Wagon (essentially and Outback or Rav4 competitor) 2) Adventure/Overland Van 3) Short Range (<40mile range) Street Legal, neighborhood vehicle (essentially a golf cart that...

I made the decision to cancel my R1T order a while ago. Financially wasnt worth it for a lot of reasons... especially with the pandemic, we don't need another vehicle since we both now work from home full time. Regardless of that, unless an EV gets below 50k we will not consider it. It needs to...

YES YES YES! I want one. Rivian is not taking preorder reservations yet, I asked.

Does/will the price of crude oil and gasoline affect anyone's decision to buy a Rivian or EV for that matter? Gas is $1.65 in Texas, $1.30 in OK and near or under $2.00 in most area of the country.... Just curious how many people with pre-orders will be sticking with their order, regardless...

I hope Rivian unveils their smaller more affordable adventure model lineup some time in 2020... In this lineup, I can see them simply destroying the 2 door wrangler and bronco marketshare with a direct EV competitor and also a crossover sized EV to take a nice portion of the largest volume sales...

Let's see these 3 smaller more affordable models you speak of RJ!... I want an EV Rally car or Wrangler/Bronco slayer. Give me an EV smaller, dare I say samurai sized, adventure vehicle with 300 mile range for <45k and I am in! if it had T-tops all the better.

one can lift a Rav4 or suburu, just sayin... kits run 500 but I get what you're saying.. being comfortable with doing it is different than a vehicles capabilities... I could see buying the Tesla truck if it's even somewhat capable on defined trails for 50K.

I love what Rivian is promising to offer, however the price is bloated. This is why I decided to pull my reservation recently... I have little doubt they're gonna nail the R1T and R1S and I simply cannot stomach the price premium right now (without knowing the warranty to be offered, the...

Agree. have had great success with xpel on our ICE vehicles. The most important part of ppf's longevity and durability (regardless of brand) is the surface prep and cleanliness. Any reputable installer will spend time describing to you their process focused on the prep phase. It's not true in...

yeah, so what... before the peeing match started at least someone was interested in the Rally model

Let's get back to the R1R discussion. No one in here is going to save the global environment or climate by driving a Rivian.

Tesla unveils their pickup on 21 November.

I'm in if it checks the following boxes. Under 50K 0-60 in 3 sec (or less) At least 400 mile range with smallest battery (getting 600 with the largest battery option would be awesome) 12” of ground clearance (or ride height adjustability if less) A nice size Frunk A small tailgate to sit on...

Snow Plowing in Tank Mode would be epic youtube footage... haha... Can it? sure. IF there are mounting compatible mounting points for the plow. Again, this frame/ skateboard chassis is not typical.

I need to compare the Rivian to another midsize pickup truck since that's what I'm in the market for... have any suggested comparisons that are better than the Tacoma? It's been leading the segmet for decades.

got it... thanks. I've often wandered how environmentally friendly it is to manufacture an EV... for example mining any rare earth elements for all the electronics... that mining equipment and operations generally aren't "environmentally friendly". the electrons to charge the vehicles have to...

Educate me on local pollution from particulates please...
