    Edit: I haven’t set work yet, because I work from home 99% of the time and I’m not sure if there are any charging stations out near my office

    American electric vehicle (EV) start-ups are
    dealing with falling demand, as buyers look
    elsewhere, or put off purchases entirely.
    High costs, quality-control issues, and
    supply-chain problems are taking a toll
    on the EV sector, according to the latest
    quarterly reports.

    Several EV companies reported a declining
    interest for some of their latest vehicles
    while production costs for each product
    rose even higher. For example, Rivian
    Automotive reported mixed quarterly results
    after a second recall in less than six months
    reported Fox Business.

    The company previously saw a net loss of
    $1.72 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022,
    compared to the $2.46 billion loss during th
    same period in 202I.

    Over 12,000 electric trucks and SUVs were
    recalled, or almost 89 percent of all of those
    produced through September, after a faulty
    sensor in the front passenger seat was discovered, according to The Wall Street Journal.

    Electric vehicles are not cheap to manufacture and usually are not profitable on them for a long, long time. Rivian prices are a bit higher ($73k starting I believe). I just dont see many being able to compete against Tesla. Now that more Tesla SC stations are opening up to other manufactures, I believe they will see an increase for EV as the Tesla SC Network was/is supreme over others. This has already posed an issue. As an example, the Ford has their charging port up front. The truck must pull up and use this cable causing them to have to take two spots based on the reach (see my previous video post above)

    Whatever this forum told me to do
    and yet, media outlets only spout the negative news

    can a rivian do this:
    My son went to pick up Chik fil a, we waited till he got the the window and lovingly set off the whoppie cushion remotely. He was awesomely embarrassed

    Whatever this forum told me to do
    just closed on a place to dock the boat...


    I'll be able to hook up a Tesla charger on full tilt boogie mode (48 amps). 41miles per hour of charge.

    I'm at 10mph on our original charger.


    Can't wait till our neighbors get a load of us! It will look like the Clampetts come to town.
