Announcing our new "CLUBS" section where you can join or create a Rivian club or group! You can use this new feature to conveniently plan and discuss local events, gatherings or other club/group related topics.
So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
I'm willing to bet there will be many 16-24 year olds right now ready to buy a CyberTruck with crypto earnings not to mention the DOGE army.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I, too, would love to see everyone in an EV. Also, you're correct about my feelings regarding the first generation of Rivians. I don't like them. I love them. The Ford's and Chevys, not so much, but thanks in large part to your input, I'll reserve judgement on the CyberTruck until they exist in the real world.
With the pandemic, supply chain issues and now chip shortage I'm willing to give all EVs a break.
Several people here keep mentioning the CyberTruck like it doesn't run on its own power or something, look Tesla is not Lordstown.
They built ONE as a marketing tool. We still haven't seen a road-legal one. The one Leno drove was not road legal. It was a PR stunt.
I would guess if you spent some time outside the world of investing, California, or the internet you might realize there is a much larger portion of that population segment that has neither the means nor the interest to be involved with crypto. There will be some overly funded youth that will buy a CyberTruck, but they'll be the minority.
The one on the track had side mirrors.
If you knew anything about EVs you'd know that the majority of EVs in the US sell in California.
Yea sure go for it dude, I know not every Millennial will like it but there's tons of interest for sure.
Speaking only for myself, I put the CyberTruck in the camp of "things to come". I think we all know Lordstown is a myth, much like Sasquatch and cold fusion. While I've read every review and all of the customer testimonials I can find on the R1T, I'd really like to read the same takes on the CT.
Well, I can't say it's been fun or particularly enlightening. I feel like in your 10 years of EV ownership and living/breathing solar, you'd have realized the goal (and country) is larger than California. We need coal-rolling PA rednecks and the like to adopt these things, not just Devin and his Gen Z crypto-rich cousins in California. That's where Ford, Chevy, and likely to a lesser extent Rivian, come in. CyberTrucks and things like them will decidedly be "an LA thing" - my farmer buddy Bill might adopt an EV Ford and park it next to his carbonated F100 gasser, but he ain't buying no CyberTruck.
I don't presume to know what part of the country you're from but I know everything green starts in California and this is the market to push from.
Don't worry friend, millions of very superior Californians are moving to Texas to help drag you out of the 19th century and update your draconian laws! You'll be able to buy brisket with Dogecoin any day now.
