Margins on Rivian's products are at negative sixty-two percent.
It has been three years since Tesla teased their Cybertruck - no trucks yet. Word is market viability is a large concern.
Those that tow may be forced into EVs by a certain date in certain states. However, there may not be anyone manufacturing product for them to buy. Companies cannot eat losses like these and remain viable. .
Unless they're subsidized and write off their losses. Meaning you and I get to pay more for the failure than the success of this agenda. This is typical "ready, shoot, aim" policies with half baked science holding it up to garner votes at the cost of the taxpayer.
EV manufacturers eat their losses?? Nope, not them. We will, but it's for our own good, somehow, so just enjoy helping out!

After all, I'm just helping them out. Since they don't want the type of vehicles I drive, then they shouldn't mind losing any potential tourist revenue. I just wonder if they are going to stop jets from flying into their states?
Works for me. CG's are crowded enough as it is.
yes, PLEASE stay out of Oregon Washington and CA, will make it easier for us to find campsites and see the great areas we have and more time to enjoy our great outdoor wonders.
Stay at home and sulk about what is to come.

I've never defined someone by where the live, where they come from, what they do. I've meet and developed wonderful friendships with people from all around the world.
Nor do I define any state by anything political, I think of states as what is nice to do, what to visit, what to see, and there are wonderful things everywhere.
all one needs to do is look with an open mind and put preconceptions aside.
That said, if you want to avoid coming to oregon, so be it, sorry for all the great places we have to offer that you will miss. Crater lake a wonder of the world, Steins Mountain, Wallowa lake, The columbia gorge, then to the out of the way places, hole in the ground, crack in the ground,
California Has Lassen, Yosemite, and out of the way places like Julian and Berago sprins with fantastic wildflowers in the spring.
I could go on about every state we have visted, and I'm glad I didn't decide NOT to go because of political reputations.
your loss, my gain

Yet Tesla makes bilions on their EVs.
Ford just doesnt have the know how to build at profit,why is that?
