My Rivian bed length is. Doesn’t mean it isn’t useful. 

This x1,000,000.

It’s like reserving a spot in a line for 10 cents.

Worth doing if you expect the item may be amazing and line may be long, but once those are found not to be true ..whoopty do

Is that even cool? It has the visibility of a Camaro, and just seems.. chunky. Did it eat everyone’s cake? Why are the wheel arches so high? Are those 20's? What can you actually see with those side-view mirrors? Why is there no rear-view mirror? Why does the grill have to be ripped from the Malibu?

I’m hot and I’m ready to goooooo

If you like coasters and haven’t been to Cedar Point, do yourself a favor and go. 

The demand isn’t/won’t be there for their current models. The market simply isn’t large enough for 70-110k electric trucks/SUVs, especially “in this economy.” I wouldn’t expect them to be profitable until they’re selling a significant number of R2s, but given that’s not until 2026, they’ve still got to figure out cash…

I have never understood the prices for this car and who is paying them.

It doesn’t have great performance

Maybe. One 0f these vehicles exist, and 0ne doesn’t.

Is Ford not a legacy automaker? Both the Mach-E and lightning have usable frunks.

The economy is great for the rich. Still waiting on that trickle down. 

I mean.. would you really want to own an early electric that was all-Honda? At least GM has significant experience in making a BEV. 

I mean Tesla isn’t, as Lucid, Rivian, Ford, all have frunks, but your point is overall valid.

I see the 4c on the slideshow cover. I see this for sale occaisoninally, and am interested enough to click on them, but always laugh at the amount people are expected for them.

It’s a cool car, but I’m not spending $65k on a used one from 2017. There are so many better options at that price. 

Y’all are a little too worried about this, IMO.

If it could actually go 466 miles, it will rarely need charged on the road for the majority of drivers/use cases. You charge at home 98% of the time.

If there is demand created for charging, companies will pop-up and charge to support it. Day 1 there may not be support…

Looks like a pretty sweet update to the Flex. The rear isn’t going to be everyone’s favorite in design language, but it is certainly polarizing. Some decent chunks of blind spot on the sides in the back, too. Those look a bit more weird on the tan? copper? colored model.

Rivian has backers in Amazon and GM.

It’s not in as risky of a position as Lucid.

But yes, that is a back-of-mind consideration just the same. 

Yeah, they sound pretty f’d. They are figuring out supply finally, but no longer have demand, because inflation has eaten into everyone’s savings to the point the ones who could afford a Lucid have bought one or are buying one, and interest rates are scaring others that might have financed it, away.

Yes, source: I am one of those people. I’ve been considering a Lucid or Rivian, and Lucid looks less appealing due to its backers/possibility of being bankrupt in a year.

Why would anyone buy this over, say a Model 3, given the price?

Hmmm, does “You can get better cars for the same price in China.” equate to “You can get shittier cars for cheaper and the average citizen doesn’t have money for a Tesla?”
