This is like a real life demonstration of why the dealer system works for other brands and why the auto industry has found ways to make dealers money through parts, financing, service, and adm. Dealers, as bad as they are, take huge risks by taking on a brand and servicing their customers, hiring techs, staffing and everything that goes along with it. It's no joke. It's easy to think you can cut out the costs by eliminating dealers, but you still have to build all that shit.
Well said. The ideal solution still eludes us.

For those of us without a PTC and the rails only...it is possible and likely a powered retrofit will be available to us at some point, from Rivian or another manufacturer. How hard could be, with an almost complete redesign anyway?

(In the mean time, the EVSportline, Interrobang, and Agricover are excellent alternatives - thanks for those)

Rivian said no. But it seems like they could/should change their mind.
