I see so many Rivians on the road now. I guess the partnership (or whatever) with VW is working for them. It was even with CT and Rivians, now it is 10 Rivians to each CT I see. I don't know the sales figure for either one, but Rivian may be a good investment now.

It depends on where you're looking. Here in Socal I see a lot of CTs.

I see so many more Rivians, Lightnings and Mustangs on the road the last few months here in Loudoun (the richest in the US) and Fairfax (5th richest in the US) counties, and few CT. China Telsa sales down. Europe is reporting a 49% drop in Tesla sales today. If I were a salesman for EVs then a CT, and maybe Tesla overall, may not be my #1 choice. Lightnings and Mustangs will continue to be the best of the best in EVs available, IMHO.

Tesla will survive. That's a fact.
Tesla may have had a rough first quarter but sales show it still leads the EV game
Tesla outsells competitors even after stock price rollercoaster in Q1.
You know what they say about opinions.

Yes, opinions are that EVERYONE (get it) has one. The thing that matters is that mine is correct. LOL

California-based electric vehicle startup Rivian delivered 8,640 vehicles during the first three months of 2025, the company said on Wednesday. That's a 36% drop from the same quarter last year, when the automaker delivered 13,588 vehicles. It's also 40% lower than Rivian's deliveries in the prior quarter, which totaled 14,183 vehicles.

That's good info. I'm surprised from what I see about the Rivian drop. Many EVs in the market now so competition is tough on all. I'm just glad we bought American (or as much as is possible). For that, I bet we agree.

I do, and I really hope things get better sooner than later for the sake of all of our American company's.
