Thought this was a nice bit of good news. I know it's not the 10K vans/year that we're expecting, but it's still triple the number that were in use as of November.

My Amazon driver had a new Rivian EDV the other day. I asked him how he like it. He said it has great acceleration but he missed the vroom of the engine.
Maybe Rivian needs give the drivers an option to add fake engine noise...like a Taycan.
