    I hope Rivian can eventually target more middle class consumers

    That is great that you can pay cash for your vehicles and I would say you are in a minority. While I could tap my assets, I don't think using "working" money is best for my longterm strategy. My investments are in index funds and a mix of common stocks, commodities and ETFs. 6% is extremely...

    I hope Rivian can eventually target more middle class consumers

    I think there are two different conversations to be had based on your statement. There are still plenty of "affordable" cars on the market, so I don't think it purely manufacturers just raising prices, the market supports the increase in vehicle costs. Supply/demand. Same with housing and any...

    I hope Rivian can eventually target more middle class consumers

    I appreciate your take on this. I will say, as a current EV owner, I have had the discussion with numerous ICE owners. It comes down to your driving habits. If a 330 mile range ICE car is good enough for you, then why wouldn't a 330 mile EV be? When I used to stop for fuel in my ICE, I'd pull...

    Rivian Configurator is Up For Reservation Holders! Share Your Build / Configuration Inside

    I have a Tesla Model 3 with white interior, it's not a huge issue...just use baby wipes or a good interior auto cleaner and it holds up pretty well.

    Rivian Configurator is Up For Reservation Holders! Share Your Build / Configuration Inside

    Still patiently waiting for my email. Is there anything on here in regards to financing options? I am just curious, what if everyone goes through and configures their vehicles and then in 8 months decides it's not worth it, changes their minds, buys a coffee farm in Costa Rica and leaves the...

    To each his own...I think the Launch Green is cool. They have done a good job with color choices all around.

    Rivian Launches New Website: Updated Prices, Launch Edition, Timing, Colors and More!

    I could see where the assumption might be the Launch Green is an option with all the other color choices. However the June 2021 Launch Edition vs Jan. 2022 Adventure package is identical in price. I can't see them saying - "The first R1T trucks will be our Launch Edition — marked with special...

    This seems to be the impression they are leaving. Launch Green/Adventure Package - June 2021. other colors Adventure or Explorer Package - Jan. 2022

    Right, I am aware of their double stacked 800 volt Ultium battery system. My point is they do not have a working Hummer with this battery pack configuration fully functional and able to back up the charging statement. Additionally, the 100 mile in 10 minutes will be from a very low SOC, similar...

    Well, Hummer has yet to build a fully functional production model. They can say 100 miles in 10 min, but they haven't been able to demonstrate this at any level.

    Tow hitch

    Interesting. Every truck and SUV I’ve ever owned, the tow package was an extra fee. Maybe you purchased models that included the package, but you paid for it.

    Video: NO OTHER Car Has These 5 Features ...Except for RIVIAN!

    Yes, my Tesla Model 3 AWD has dual motors - it switches from front to rear as needed to maintain max efficiency and is not driver selectable. Of course if you want to throw efficiency out the window, then put the hammer down and hold on! I would suspect the Rivian has factored in this same...
