Upsides and downsides I guess. The Lightning has more space obviously, both in the cab and in the bed. It seats four adults comfortably, or if you have car seats, it leaves plenty of space for them, you can even squeeze an adult in between those two car seats usually. But then it uses quite a...

I guess this does count as a type of terrain!

Wow, that's weird. Interested to learn how this plays out.

People are saying the covers are rough on paint, because they get dust and then the wind blows them and they rub. If you are parking under a pine tree, I would agree a cover seems better. But better than that is to get some sort of awning over your driveway. That way you can avoid the cover as...

When toppers/caps become available for us, any guesses how they'll impact range/efficiency?

Wow, that's a big bill for what looks so minor.

Looks like a sweet place.

Looks like a blast. If you're not familiar with sand, be careful with the drifting. Roll overs happen that way. If you're experienced in sand already, disregard.

Oh wow! That is crazy.

No, I didn't mean that. I don't think they would. I think it's more likely for ford or another conventional automaker to scoop up the assets and service parts supply line while killing it off. I don't think Amazon wants to get into the car business, or they would have already, not wait and see...

Congrats!

I sure hope so. They'll either do well or disappear is my view.

Wow, sorry to hear about the scratches. Glad the truck wasn't any worse and the dogs were ok. Good of the dog owner to offer to pay for any damages, not all people are that responsible.

It would be hilarious to see. Especially since it would be kind of pointless, it would only be for the look. Well, I guess maybe you could squeeze in slightly larger tires? But it wouldn't really give any ground clearance otherwise.

They're different enough. I'd keep the lightning if I wanted something to haul more stuff, was using it more as a work truck, needed to fit 4 or more people. I'd keep the rivian if you're mostly driving solo, live somewhere congested with difficult parking, etc.

Does ford/gm/honda/etc corporate make money off of service? I thought most of that money was being made by the dealerships? I guess the corporation makes money on service parts, but their supplier I assume make a solid chunk of that. And EVs will continue to need service parts still, just not...

So our vehicles are somewhat unique (obviously). What are some things owners of other trucks, SUVs, or other cars complain about that we will never need to complain about? I'll start: you'll never see a thread called "what is the best aftermarket tool to turn off autostop?"

To your point, yes rivian made some mistakes. But let's be realistic here, we all knew when we ordered that it was an entire auto company built from the ground up, creating a vehicle that wasn't quite like any existing vehicle built by any company. The last company to do that was tesla. Tesla...

How many kWh does it take to do a vasectomy? And what is the EPA rated TPGe? (Testicles per gallon - equivalent)

This is good to know that the SCs are able to get parts that my guide said weren't available for order ahead of time.
