I have purchased 10 R1T's for my company. Got the first one May 2022. We have had no problems with them. Incredible vehicles!

[williamelkington]

All I know is that my R1S is the best vehicle I've ever owned or driven.

[Jonathan-ruzl]

He started off a car company without any capital. Its amazing.
I really hopes this brilliant guy and his company will succeed big time. We should encourage and support people like him

[CarlitoswayDR]

I’m buying Rivian stock as soon as Monday, this is a gem

[jerrychenwu]

Owned R1S for half year and 5000+ miles. As a previous owner of Mercedes, BMW, Tesla and Porsche vehicles. R1S is my favorite car among them, elegant design, good quality, very capable of handling all kinds of road condition. You can tell from their software upgrades that they really care about their owners and listen to their owners. There are still pain points like lack of their own charging network(But you can use tesla super charger soon), lack of enough service center, minor software bugs. But given the stage of the company I would say what they are able to accomplish is very impressive.

Great interview. RJ is truly invested in his product and understands it. R2 is going to really help them solidify their spot in the EV industry.

[RyanNicholson-yyut]

The R1T is a joy to drive every day. It’s extremely well designed. The function and layout makes it extremely easy to adapt to as a first time EV owner. The gear tunnel is the best thing ever if you’re taking the family fishing or to the beach!

[aberhan]

Very humble and likable unlike other EV CEO. I would actualy consider buying this.

[gaymoderate]

I'm holding my stock for at least five years

[NealIRC]

Okay, I hope Rivian goes successful. Fellow Chicagoan here.

[drewbymusic]

RJ is so refreshingly well spoken. I own a Tesla, but the daily childish behavior of Elon Musk is exhausting. RJ acts like an adult

[RyanDohertyRacing]

I’ve seen some rivians around. They actually look very unique and elegant. I’d be interested to see what is R2 going to be like? And will the big money investors continue to keep them afloat when sales slow during this economic slump? Tesla made it through recession early in its life and electric vehicles are much more popular now, so I do believe it’s feasible. That being said, part of how tesla survived was because elon musk. People believed in him.

Anyway, wish i could pick the brain of genius businessman to help me grow my business.

[ayoutubewatcher]

I have 3 questions
#1 what will be there profit margin be and
#2 when will they make a sedan?
And #3 can/will they partner with the evil genius to mimic his design/manufacturing technology?

[randolm]

Seeing recent articles about the 'EV Fad?' are comical and clickbait. I suspect when the Model T's rolled out and people saw them breaking down, being pulled out of the mud by horses, etc... many suspected cars were doomed - horse and buggy forever. This slow down is a blip. I added to my small RIVN position when it hit $15 this week. I'll probably add more if it drops further.

[updownhealth]

Cramer tried baiting him... RJ not having any of it. Props! Now there is a stand-up guy! I'm a fan.

[Fanta]

Just added an extra 2000 shares, R2 will be a game changer for Rivian reach, profibality road. I hope the stock keep stsy at 15$

[MADMAX]

Only Cramer will flip flop and diss Tesla, while trying to pump Rivian..
Watch him flip flop in a few months

[reality_bites]

Interesting mix of EV fans and general public comments

[DADRacingYT]

I bought mine at the early pricing so I was going to flip it. Welp I’m hooked. Keeping it for the loooong run. Such an amazing car. Embarrasses our Tesla

[vilicus]

Rivian is a great company--love my R1T.
