    I do wonder if Rivian will be the true winner of the Cybertruck hype

    • cybertruck was new, Exciting, different as announced when there were no EV pickups. Years later, it’s not going so well
    • Ford announced an EV 150 for regular people, but delivered something average for a beyond premium price that no one could afford (and marked way up by dealers)
    • Rivian delivered something futuristic but still fairly normal, for the price range and features they announced. R2 will make or break

      I currently own a a Tesla Model Y. When the time comes to replace it a Rivian will be on the short list, above anything Tesla currently offers. Access to the supercharger network is a big selling point IMHO.
