I'm really hoping we don't have a week of no new info. Fingers crossed something comes out later today...

I mean they did do the "our company" thing this week I know its not what everyone wanted but they are giving us something every week.

Jokes aside, I'm actually generally all-in on the drip-drip-drip communications style and it's probably what I'd do in their shoes (remember, this isn't demand-gen for preorders, this is the hype train for the Rivian brand).

That said, "Our Company" absolutely doesn't count and even I will eye my pitchfork if that's all we get this week.

damn, that's really going to hurt when they finally cave and redesign the charging port ?

I still think the taycan location makes more sense given the likelihood of a fender bender resulting in an inability to charge.

Concur. Just hope this team doesn't have to form a new company to start production for an all electric truck, but let me know if we start hiring. . .

I can manage marketing copy.

Yeah buddy! Didn’t say it would be easy to read. ?

 

[wdlikatruck]

Market segmentation is tricky and I think Rivian has pretty well cornered the REI/Patagonia crowd but I'm sure there's some unexplored niche left... I'm thinking YETI/Arc Teryx customers. Rivian, but add a zero. Picture an electric Range Rover with low-profile tires and a carbon fiber rooftop tent.

Putting the BRAND in OVERLAND. ​

Just spitballing, am I hired?

(Note: This is how my overland friends already see me/Rivian. Fortunately I have long since developed an immunity to irony.)

Believe it or not, the application/registration for ' OVERLAND ADVENTURE VEHICLES ' was abandoned at the USPTO as of April 9, 2021. Race you for it!

The initialism in question is way too coherent for government use. It needs to be much more convoluted with a few skipped words and double letters. Try...

TrIviaL: Transportation Intelligence via intermittent moratorium Laxation

or maybe

TRIViAL: Tantric Rivian Information Vectored in Advance of Launch
