Hey!
I am a prospective EV pickup truck buyer, who fell in love with the Cybertruck before discovering the R1T. While the Cybertruck would be an amazing vehicle for me, I am old fashioned with how I like my vehicles to look. Therefore upon finding the R1T I have made it my goal to purchase it over the Cybertruck. I should say that I am not making a set decision until I see the final prices, options etc.. of the vehicles
Doing research about the companies has shown me that Rivian may be taking IP from Tesla, by poaching employees. The main accusations that caught my attention were that Rivian may be stealing some information with regards to the manufacturing process, in order to bring their vehicles to market.
My questions to these forums is: if there is truth behind these allegations, would you have a problem supporting the company?
I personally only want to see the increased production of EV's so one day when I have kids their world isn't a smog covered wasteland. It seems that Tesla fans are really rooting against all other EV manufacturers, which doesn't sit well with me as the overall goal is to create healthy competition and a more sustainable future. I am worried that capitalism may be getting in the way of a healthier earth, as well as a better EV market for consumers. Would love to hear this comunities thoughts!
Thanks!
