For the wary.

They’re not going to build the GA plant on Gear Guard plush sales, I can tell you.

I'd love to see the financial breakdown of you buying a bunch of Rivian adventure shorts to save the company

 

[NY_Rob]

Maybe Rivian should get out of the complicated, low-margin automobile manufacturing business altogether and just sell apparel? Look at the crazy markups on that Rivian swag... $38 for a dog water bowl, $120 for an "Adventure Shirt" and $120 for a pair of stretch pants? ?

Now we know where the real money is

I love the company. Best way for some of us who have already purchased everything we need from rivian is to ease congestion at service centers unless it's necessary. Perhaps wait 6 months to a year after buying before asking them to take a look at panel gaps so you can have multiple issues fixed if needed at a single time.

I'm guilty of this. And will not be going back in for any service stuff unless necessary going forward.

I am not much of a fan when it comes to the negative, downer commentary regarding the future of RIVIAN. It is rather bleak and a bit hater-ish in my opinion. For those of you that are genuinely concerned over how the company will fare, I offer a simple suggestion: BUY RIVIAN PRODUCTS. If there is anything that your S or T is missing (OEM parts and accessories), and is offered by Rivian, then buy it from RIVIAN. Let third-party products take a back seat to your RIVIAN-related purchases. I know many of us enjoy being unicorns and getting the wtf looks out on the road. We should however, buy all the RIVIAN merchandise to spread the word and generate interest every where we go. Also, let us not forget about RIVIAN stock. See it all as investment into something that you believe in and are proud to be a part of. Doing so could help you get over your cynical and pessimistic view of this remarkable company/community.

Yeah, but news of RIVN hitting all time lows will greatly more than offset any type of hype Rivian owners are trying to create. Buying floormats and coffee cups isn't going to save Rivian, in fact it will just illustrate how dire things are for them.

This stock has been a total turd for me and I regret making the two purchases one at roughly $25 and another at roughly $19. Fortunately they were very small amounts even if I bought a CD I'd be much better off.

The market has spoken about the lack of confidence in this company which trickles down to the everyday person. I'm beginning to think the only thing holding this turd up is the prospect of a total buyout.

I would buy a tonneau cover for my truck if I could, but the company doesn't even sell them anymore.

I still like my idea of allowing advertising at RAN stations, like at gas station pumps.

A bit cheesy? Yes, but it’s like 100% profit margins to show ads haha

If you’re talking about the video SCREAMS I’ll vandalize every single one of them ?

 

[Blueassassin]

They should make a kitchen for the gear tunnel and sell that. Could be a huge hit...

Rivian needs more aftermarket accessories for the basic offroading things. Rock rails, steps, brush guards, more wheel and tire options, winches, etc. Since they seem to be a Yakima partner they should sell every kind of product Yakima offers.

^^^this^^^

it is nutz how much is already available for INEOS Grenadier even though only about 7,000 2024 model years will be delivered in the USA.

Don't be so sure about that. I've asked for a temporary credit increase on my card.

five hundred million of them. Your order will be completed in about six years, but with what I'm assuming is a considerable high margin on every plush toy vs a considerable loss on every vehicle, they might change their entire strategy based on this one order.

I think someone placed an order for Guy Fawkes masks that may hold fulfillment of this one up for a while.
