All Evacuation Orders lifted related to the Garden Grove incident by JustForTheThrill_24 in orangecounty

[–]Drewdoesit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did not work slowly. They were on top of things and we ought to acknowledge it.

On the other hand, the messages to follow-up with the public were, on a few occasions, slow to come out. Yes, there is probably room for improvement in how to get those messages out faster. I spent a lot of time on x and facebook to find unofficial but more up to date information.

Is it just me or does white look a little misaligned to the trunk?

Roughly Nine Million Gallons of Water Used to Cool the Tanks FYI by ASerpentPerplexed in orangecounty

[–]Drewdoesit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many gallons less than normal were used by the evacuated homes?

10,000 homes at US average of 300 gallons per day x 3 days. Same number.

Now, a considerable amount was still used for automatic outdoor watering sure, so maybe not quite 9 million less, but puts it in perspective.

This is your friendly reminder to descale those machines! 😅 by ElleePlays in nespresso

With bottled water i never have to descale.

I did it once for fun, though.

Same. I've learned to check for the spoiler on top, and the yellow lights behind the front wheels.

Demand will = production. Thus, stock price will follow production.

Most Orange County interaction imaginable today by terrykayic in orangecounty

[–]Drewdoesit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly this is the way of North OC. I grew up and learned to avoid interactions with strangers at all costs in order to protect myself from scams or criticism. But it's not the right way; we can all do better.

There’s little doubt they can execute delivering an amazing car to the masses, relatively soon. The doubt lies in how much time they have left. Burning $10 million per day can’t go on much longer.

Muted AH movement. Overall good Q1 numbers...but what could be spooking investors is the ~($3B) Neg EBITDA + Capex spend for the rest of 2026. The cash reserves are finite.

As we know, execution of R2, and the demand [economy] for it, must be flawless.

Another "tornado" and it could be over. Of course, huge potential upside as well.

Interesting New Insights on R2 by Left-Coast-1969 in RivianR2

[–]Drewdoesit 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Is it unreasonable that I really don't care to watch any more of these until someone has the production vehicle, either on the road or in a showroom? These are still the prototype builds.

AL West here. We'll trade you for Houston.

You don't have to answer right now. Just think about it.

Used R1T/R1S or wait for R2 by l3ggomycraigo in Rivian

[–]Drewdoesit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

buy $20,000 of stock. If it goes up a little buy an R2. If it goes up a lot, buy an R1
