    Maybe. It’s more likely going be a Kanye or Kardashian type that needs the newest stuff to show off.

    That lock unlock problem would drive me crazy. What was wrong with just hitting the lock or unlock button that worked perfectly for years.

    My Tacoma will do that if you don’t open the door fast enough, after hitting the unlock button on the fob.

    Built in America too, think ‘Mericans would be all over that. “Here take my money!” But no…

    Not sure what the timeline is now, used to take 5-7 years for a company to become profitable.

    Funny how a market competitor wants a rival to fail. Almost like it's a business strategy.

    Mine too. I’ll unlock it from in the house then walkout with an armful of stuff and it will lock right as I get to the door. :(
    The Rivian looked like it kept locking and unlocking as he walked around the truck. Screwed up proximity sensor or something.

    Yeah pain in the ass. Got to be a way to adjust the timer on it, haven’t looked into yet.

    I can’t find that comment but I did find one saying the floor mats are cool. Please don’t tell me you think the rear wiper is called a “flipper” because that words come up a lot in that auction.

    It's not just a competitor, the writing is on the wall in giant blaze orange letters ten feet tall.

    Best case for the company is to be owned wholly by Amazon as a logistics/delivery truck only subgroup. Or they'll just disappear forever.

    Either way, sorry to those taking giant gulps of the kool-aid.

    At worst Rivian maintains its commercial truck division. Just my opinion.

    I figured that floor mat comment was made by you. :D
    The rear wiper comment must have been removed. I don’t see it now. It was something along the lines of that $4 rear wiper looks like it will clean a 6” circle of window.

    Wrong again, but you’re use to that.
    The tiny rear wiper may not be a big deal if the rear camera view is good.

    It’s nice to be able to see out your rear window when driving on the highway in the rain or snow though.
