    Would you rather drive a Rivian R1T or a Tesla Cybertruck?

    Excellent person to interview with surprisingly good questions.

    Would not have watched if it was Marry Barry.

    This needs to be brought to light and action taken.

    RJ is very consistent of what he said.

    There will be sure overlap and impact on R1T when Cybertruck start delivering

    The R1T is by far the better looking and more functional truck between them or Tesla. Great on the Rivian team for designing a beautiful vehicle

    With this seating arrangement on the stage, I am sure the necks off everyone on the stage hurts from constant flexing.

    Rivian donated large sums of money to the corrupt BLM movement, do not give them your hard earned money.

    It’s interesting to listen to him, especially when he talks about the industry as a whole. He seems dedicated to this ev industry as a whole rather than just Rivian

    Finally! RJ is so cool. And regarding the question from the Verge guy – Model 3 is already the new Toyota Camry!

    How is Rivian any different than Nikola or any other over-hyped BEV company or any other money-losing company headed for bankruptcy? Rivian did excellent job of convincing early investors to pour tens of billions of $$s into Rivian. But now Rivian is consistently losing $1.2 bill/qtr. Between the convertible and lack of plans to reduce losses, it will be increasingly difficult to prop up the share price. Remember, Rivian had 942 mill sh o/s as of 6/30/23. Between ongoing losses and share dilution, how can current shareholders win?
