Busy spots in the US can climb to $20/hour, sometimes more

That’s what this new rivian feature would be too: For new deliveries only. Otherwise, you can say that 95%+ of the rivian fleet will choose to avoid this new feature by rivian, therefore it is irrelevant.

Do you think they see the demand and decided to stop or slow making cars? This is demand exceeding production capability. No company would see high demand and intentionally delay production

Before tax and down payment. Combining that you’re at almost double these monthly payments.

They weren’t promised updates to specific cpabailities. HW3 FSD purchasers were promised that, in a specific timeframe as well.

“Electric cars are too expensive, so I bought a 75,000 gas car”

If they were only predictions, they could have been phrased as such, but while some were many weren’t. If you trusted Tesla when they were selling HW3 cars, you’d have been convinced these cars would be robotaxi-ready vehicles with only software updates needed.

Do you actually believe this? There were many statements, not just by Musk, but on the Tesla ordering page, customer facing communication, and even earnings calls that had both timelines and concrete statements about hardware capability of vehicles sold at the time.

This seems disingenuous, which isn’t like you. Countless promises from Elon saying you can sleep on AP by X year, or summon across the country, etc Fewer but still existing timelines by Tesla itself on the order page of FSD

Horrible take. If someone promises you something you paid for within a certain timeframe, it’s more than understandable to expect them to hold to that timeframe. If there was no timeframe or payment involved, this take would be far more fair.

The good thing is the majority of people never need that flexibility, they just drive to work and back with the occasional road trip. People aren’t normally setting land speed records.

When will you switch to both cables being usb-c?

Putting aside the strategies you can use to not rely solely on REX power, even when we don’t know how much power it would make… How much range do you get on a normally BEV when the battery reaches 0?

Yes it’s a range extender, but how is it harder to fuel if it’s just a 350 mi EV with more flexibility? By definition it would be easier to fuel I do agree customers overestimate needs, & most may not need it, but the rational behind the want is obvious: more fueling flexibility

So then why assume all 800k were going to transfer FSD?

Do you have a Turo host referral code btw? Might join

I’m imagining based on the ratio that you’re realizing you didn’t know how firm is truly used.
