Rivian Vans for Amazon

None of these are being designed for longevity, more gadgets form over function   - they are disposable. Go check it out EV's have relaxed regulations on parts availability requirements. Although many of the aftermarket players like Bosch are making huge moves to support EV drivetrain parts. I was surprised that NGK was the largest manufacturer of EV components but only for the big players it will be interesting to see if the newcomers are supported

And the game changes in 2025 when the moratorium against Chinese EV's runs out - estimates are 50 of 70 brands of Chinese EV's will flood the US , cars, trucks, SUVs and they look alike like Teslas and other familiar EVs. The Chinese are buying up Stealerships all over the us right now 

Interesting times ahead

 
Their New Truck is insane...

Rivs are the new Tesla in my hood. They are everywhere and personally I find them much better to look at . . .

I continue to buy their stock on a weekly basis. Between Amazon and the 5 billion from VW I think it’s going to be a great investment in the next 5 years. They just need to stop hemorrhaging cash every quarter.

Not a fan of the power button looking headlights but overall ok, not great but not ugly by any means either.
 
If you're thinking about a Riv, look up some of the issues they have with what happens when you get into a little fender bender

They have upper management issues they just can't seem to figure out.
 
My son worked for rivian and I've ridden in a couple. I have to say they are fast as hell, and ride damn well.
 
they have had them here for about 2 years they seem to be woking ok. i friend has a tow company and they are a nightmare when they break to big to put on a standard flat bed too high for a heavy duty flat bed cant be towed on the ground so the have been moving them on trailers. i think they are great thou for areas like here where they can empty the van in a 10 mile radius
