  1. CyberTruck is more than Stainless Steel...Tesla excels at Engineering in so many ways.

    Cammisa put out a shameless promotional piece essentially commissioned by Tesla and you ate it up. My god you must be gullible.

  2. Delivery Estimate Updates Are Out! ⏱️ [as of Jan 31, 2022]

    Not nearly as many Chinese parts as Rivian. I looked one over recently and was dismayed to see all the stamped "made in China" parts.

  3. Delivery Estimate Updates Are Out! ⏱️ [as of Jan 31, 2022]

    Done. Reservation closed. Enjoy your unreliable, phantom battery draining Chinese parts-mobile. They should change the label on these to “assembled in US*” *with Chinese parts, engineered by tech bros.

    Thanks dad. You know what you can do with your comment…

  5. Delivery Estimate Updates Are Out! ⏱️ [as of Jan 31, 2022]

    This scumbag company keeps pushing my order back. Can’t wait for them to go bankrupt first. Would make me happy to see them all on the unemployment line.

  6. Kia EV9 Specs are out

    The Kia specs look very compelling, particularly for the price. Obviously less off-road capability than the Rivian, but likely better interior room, making it a good EV replacement for a Telluride. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a42621986/2024-kia-ev9-specs-leaked/

  7. R1S interior size vs. other SUVs?

    Nor am I trying to tell everyone to get a long wheelbase. I’m saying they have a long wheelbase chassis, it’s relatively easy to put an SUV body on it, and there’s a market that would pay a premium for that.

  8. R1S interior size vs. other SUVs?

    Even with the Rivian’s 2nd row all the way back, making the 3rd row unusable by anyone but amputees, it’s several inches short in room compared to a Telluride. Or Explorer / Aviator. Or Audi Q7 or Mercedes GLS. Meaning it’s just really small for a 200” vehicle. Maybe stop defending it.

  9. R1S interior size vs. other SUVs?

    Unfortunately it's much smaller inside than a Telluride. It was designed by Tech bros who went a little overboard in making it hella cool, for an uncritical fanboy base. Rivian will be gone in a few years because the product is niche, overengineered and not designed for derivative models. The...

  10. R1S interior size vs. other SUVs?

    I completely disagree. You are making excuses for them and failing to see the business opportunity. You're overestimating how much it takes to produce the same chassis / body in different lengths. It would take relatively minimal capital and introduce minimal complexity - if they had properly...

  11. R1S interior size vs. other SUVs?

    I would prefer and having been arguing for a extended wheelbase as well. There's no reason they can't make two lengths seeing as plenty of other manufacturers do exactly that with their mid / large SUV offerings. I'll also add that the legroom dimensions are tight relative to the XC90, Durango...

  12. Car Mom Reviews Rivian R1S for Family Friendly Use

    Rear seat space is looking slightly better than I expected.

  13. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    I’m a 7/2021 reservation and have been given a 2024 delivery date. You should consider yourself lucky that the clowns at Rivian have deemed you higher on the priority list.

  14. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    My impression is that R1T delivery estimates are much shorter than R1S. Can we convert to R1T and potentially take delivery sooner?

  15. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    This is me. 7/21 reservation and now a 2024 delivery date. I cannot think anything except they’re trying to shake loose pre-price increase reservation holders.

  16. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    Tesla barely made it, and was within weeks of bankruptcy during the model 3 ramp, only saved by their failure to properly disclosure their dire situation in filings. Believe what you want, and go down with the burning ship. By the way, Vinfast is selling a markedly simpler to make SUV, with a...

  17. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    Look at raw material prices and the complexity of what they’ve made. The my ARE losing money on every one they sell for the original price. And they’ll go bankrupt because of it.

  18. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    Don’t worry. They’ll be bankrupt, with worthless stock and begging GM and Ford for a job.

  19. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    There’s an appreciable chance that Rivian will be bankrupt before many of these orders are filled. They’re burning cash like crazy and will have to do a raise in a terrible environment. They’re producing too slowly and aren’t even making money on the trucks they do produce. In that case, our...

  20. 🔮 Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! 🔮

    This is an R1S. No max pack, Silver with Adventure and 21” tires. I’m seeing people with Fall 2021 order dates getting 2023 delivery. These guys, as well as Lucid & Tesla, have no clue about customer service. They’re all a bunch of novice tech bros learning how to build a car. I actually hope...
