Bloomberg Technology interview with RJ

[azbill]

I took it as a seamless journey using the Rivian Adventure Network. RJ stated that the benefit of using their own network would be much easier for the company and the consumer, so maybe I'm reading too much into his statement, but I took it as maybe a more expansive network than what they have discussed in the past. Possibly starting in more remote areas as we've heard in the past, but then expanding on that initial grid.

I guess we'll find out in the next months as more information is released.

Electrify America has enabled Plug and Charge recently, but the vehicles that they stated are compatible are not shipping yet. Rivian was not mentioned, but I hope they give EA a truck to use for testing and then enable the Plug and Charge. EA has a lab where they have all 4 charger vendors installed and they test cars from all manufactures that will provide one.

Supply constraints, batteries?

I can't think of anything else that would constrain them until 2023.

What was the recent interview where they asked "Do you ever talk to Elon Musk?" And RJ was like "No. We uh... We don't talk."

I think it was this podcast, but I don't have time to relisten at the moment. It was a pretty good 'cast as I recall. DAILY DRIVE PODCAST: November 10, 2020 | RJ Scaringe on Rivian's EV ambitions (autonews.com)

Sure wish the plant behind RJ looked more full and active. Seems pretty slow and sparce considering they expect to start delivery in about 6 months.

I think if the plant were more "full and active" as you would like to see, they would be delivering trucks next month instead of next summer.

That guy wears good shirts.

Hahaha. I’ve been trying to figure out his go-to brands! I think Pataguchi is definitely one.

He wears a lot of RVCA too.

The white R1T in #8 that RJ was driving with family for a Christmas tree pick-up looks seriously good. We've seen plenty of clean, white R1Ss in pics and real life events, but not so many clean white R1T images. The black roof, pillar and trim pieces really go well with a white body, and all black wheels would complete the look. R1T/R1S in Glacier White is a winner.

RJ should only drive vehicles painted with RJ Blue.

If Tesla isn't doing it, it can't be a good thing otherwise Tesla would have been doing it first
