Yes right now there is no BEV. But why wait for a bad company to deliver 2024 when in 2024 there might be more options. Even so 70K isn’t what most people have seen their I’ll waited configurations go up to.
I do not trust Rivian anymore after 2 + years
Holding for a bit but likely canceling. Also sold 140 shares just now. Sad day for me since I advocated so hard for Rivian.
Edit - my cancellation is for 2 vehicles.
I guess prove me wrong.
What other available EV vehicle is out there?
The Fisker Ocean is 70k five seater vs R1S 7
R1T? Who? Fords overpriced dealer $pecial?
Put the R1T options into a Lightning and it costs more.
Quick question. Why do you split them out? Never followed Chevy and I won’t go into flame wars of Ford Dodge Chevy. I’m not doubting your #s just found it odd that it’s split out.
Full Disclosure; Yes grew up a ford guy. My family member is paid $100k+ to run Raptors and prototype sh!t through...
I cancelled my Lightning reservation.
They didn’t pull the wool over my eyes at $40k. They missed their mark IMO all together, but they will get there $$$ because it’s a Ford F150.
Pound for pound, R1’s are a great value once you get past the initial hurdle and assuming they are all not...
Subject says it all… you can wish for fold flat seats or no glass roofs or yada yada yad, but pound for pound, is there a better Truck entering the market?
#2 is there a better SUV?
the truck market is very tight s00n, but 7 seater SUVs…… I don’t know of many/any?
Rivian is NOT the cheapest...
I’ve been waiting for long enough to have a LE LG R1T for May/June delivery. I am 50/50 on my 2023 first half R1S.
I was sitting at the beach house watching football and drinking adult beverages when I had a light bulb moment. I’m sure its Sounds judgement.
What if/could I even, switch the R1T...
FWIW the new Fisker Ocean first edition has 8 cup holders in a five seater. Dividing by new math, we are over paying for an R1T by $1,130/cup holder. If we are only pricing by cup holders and nothing else.
Dude this times 1000000000. I’m outside Philly but so right! Let’s get some of these jobs please! PITT is a sweet tech hub with blue collar talent coming out their ears.
I get what you’re saying in truth. And honestly, I would take that factory in a heart beat in my suburbs for the reasons you stated.
But people do live in rural areas so they can have a rural life. They’d really prefer not to have outsiders coming to their community. There’s nothing wrong with...
LOL - my wife tries to sell the same DVDs in a yard sale every year. I’m like, “Sorry but no one cares about Gilbert Grape. Throw that shot out.”
Went through this thread again, but is there an advantage to the Rivian vs ChargePoint or others? Seems like some of the others are better? Wish there was a breakdown of each. I don’t need a Rivian branded one if I end up with a R1T and a Fisker Ocean (preorder R1S as well)
