I would ask what is the real reason behind no CarPlay or Android Auto. Plenty of cars with big screens have these features and the soon to be released Lucid does as well. Is it something they plan on in the future?

Respectfully disagree. Horse-sized duck is over with a single well placed shot, and could feed the family for weeks. 100 little kicking, biting horses is an entirely different matter.
I thought we're talking about hand to hand combat?

I could definitely take 100 duck sized horses. You just have to 360 degree leg sweeps until they're all knocked out.

I’ll just add that since the person from Rivian asked for the meeting, chances are that he expects to be asking the questions. And given his role, I’d expect him to ask about how they are engaging with customers and what they could maybe do better. I seriously doubt he’s asking for the meeting so that he can answer all kinds of specific questions about the truck, dates, manufacturing process, etc, etc, etc, etc. I think there’s a decent chance that he’s been directed to do this by RJ as part of the “improve communications” commitment he made.
This entire team wants to make the experience right for all of us. They have a subdued method to what they're doing, and they're sticking to it. How does that differ from anything we've seen in the past? Trivia question number one: How long did they fly below the radar before coming out in November of 2018 in LA?
:CWL:
Clearly....... If he is asking himself 3 times a day, he doesn't know, yet :like:
That is correct. Like with Launch Green, or any of the other colors, I don't have to decide until they tell me I have to decide. By the way, I've already decided...

If you notice him specifically avoiding the word Soon, ask him what a 4 letter word starting with s, meaning in the near future.

Just to see if there's a policy against avoiding the word soon lol.

If that's the case, and I do believe that it is, there is one simple solution. COMMUNICATE MORE with simple honest updates!

I'm past my Cobra Kai days, and I'm guessing you haven't been around bucking broncs much.

Remember, skyote is from Texas…

Like my dad always said, "Never bring a knife to a duck fight"...or something like that.

Damn straight, Bubba! If you wanna win, you gotta bring more Ducks, or bigger Ducks than the other guy!

In case of Texans, the ducks & horses have guns now

Regarding Duck-sized horses versus horse-sized Ducks, yes, I'm still up in the air (no Duck pun intended). Regarding Launch Green with Forest Edge and the 20's in All-Terrain (with the works in the way of accessories), I haven't budged since finalizing mine in the Configurator, five minutes after it was first available. LG/FE/AT/4ME!

If anyone messes with my configuration, expect 100 Duck-sized horses and one Horse-sized Duck to pay you a visit. Even if you walk away unharmed, imagine the mess you'll have on your front porch!

had I been early enough for launch green, I’d have picked that. Although there is a minor complication. My wife likes forest green better. So…

There's a reason Hitchcock made "The Birds" and passed on "The Duck-Sized Horses". That man knew how to scare folks!

In that case, you chose wisely! There's a reason everyone says "Happy Wife, Happy Life!"

When was the last time you heard anyone exclaim "Happy Spouse, Happy House!"

I'm guessing for most, that count is now: 1.
