The Rivian R1S starts around $80k. People who have 4 children and can still afford this generally don’t give a shit about fuel mileage.

Here’s my question:

It’s like a Rule 34 of LS swapping: if it’s a vehicle, then you can do an LS swap on it.

They ruined a perfectly stupid car.

Nice Price, but I have been seduced by this,

I own a 430 5 speed which is the later, fuel injected biturbo. The later ones addressed many of the earlier Biturbo failings and are surprisingly light and new car quick with the turbos on boil. The other surprise is that turbo lag isn’t hideous thanks to smallish turbos that spool quickly. The 5 speed dogleg box…

It also takes about another billion+ to build a factory.

Not only is making cars hard, it is really, really expensive, and takes a long-ass time.

I was really looking forward to a golden age of funky looking electric trucks.

Our ability to continue as a going concern will depend on our ability to obtain additional capital.

If Scout wants a donor for a BEV conversion, I’d like to get the fuck in line.

That’d be great if Ford made a Ranger EV, again.

They would sell the absolute hell out of an EV Maverick.

If it’s an electric Maverick, Dearborn can have my money right now.

1: Do asshole thing and show it for all to see.

9000 fucking pounds? Jesus Christ we can’t even do EVs right. Every day I’m more and more convinced that we flew too close to the sun a long time ago but convinced ourselves that the horrible burns were a nice tan. Fuck it all, no engines over 200 hp without paying for a more comprehensive license and any vehicle over…

We could see something like the Chevy S-10 or Dodge Dakota again.

I don’t.

It did give us that great meme template though.
