If you don't feel like reading it, you can at least click and see the picture of the splotchy demo unit I was talking about.

Looks like a car out of a N64 game, but not in a good way. Offroad it underperforms as well. Ill hold out for the truck hybrids coming out in the next couple years.

I don't think I've ever heard a bad thing about the Rivian trucks, other than insurance and repair costs. That's an ongoing problem for everyone, so I don't really see it as a flaw on Rivian's part.

There’s a few Rivians around here, and I’ve got to say they at least look good for sure.

Friend has had a couple minor issues with his but they have taken care of them pretty quickly. Not bad for a new carmaker honestly. The r3x is mighty tempting if I can get the current vehicles paid off by then.

Jeff sent that to me a couple days ago. The whole thread is gold. You can see who is on elons dong and who’s not.

Tesla had to recall all ~3800 Cybertrucks because the accelerator pedal cover could slip off and become jammed.

Curious why the Trashla was parked in a loading dock spot and the semi came in at an angle. Almost like it is staged for clicks.

How much money can you really make staging something like that? The repair costs and loss of value aren't going to be trivial.

True. Or why the guy filming literally said nothing to the truck driver about stopping...
