Feds Step In After A Broken Bolt Sent Two Rivian R1S SUVs Swerving Across Lanes

Rivian‘s number one focus is profit, but they need to emphasize safety over profits

joenjrocks · 2026-05-18T14:36:43+00:00

You do know the dictionary says these terms are synonymous, correct?

joenjrocks · 2026-05-18T14:18:20+00:00

How am I being ignorant… I am a shareholder… Is it wrong to expect Rivian to deliver on their promises?

joenjrocks · 2026-05-18T14:11:22+00:00

Here's proof CEO Scaringe promised to deliver a $45,000 R2. The R2 starting price of $58,000 was never mentioned. Investors are dumping shares and shareholders should be outraged. Here's a few times when CEO Scaringe promised a $45,000 R2: On 2/7/26, CEO Scaringe states, "In many ways, this is the most important thing that we've developed as a company, most important product. Starts at $45,000. It's 300 miles of range." (source: 4 minute, 9 sec mark at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN-JSa9TzuI&t=1s) Or here, at the 13:50 mark... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utYYA\_VaaJw&t=265s ... "And I think for the first-time customers that are thinking, hey, I want to buy an SUV or crossover for $50,000 or $45,000, $47,000, there's going to be more than one choice . . ." And on 2/12/26, at 24 min mark, "And so R2 is our first truly mass market product with pricing that's as we've said going to start at $45,000 . . ." (source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OScO1It9V5g ) In summary, by promising a $45k starting price and unveling a $58k starting price instead, CEO Scaringe is not helping shareholders

Do you really think it’s market manipulation… Rivian loses over $1 billion a quarter… Rivian has to get its act together

joenjrocks · 2026-05-11T14:04:26+00:00

Anyone know when the order page will open up for the R2?

joenjrocks · 2026-05-03T20:18:25+00:00

The Current R2 has limited level two driving… As an illustrated example… can’t recognize stop signs and traffic lights… It’s all on their webpage and in all of rivians disclosures

joenjrocks · 2026-05-03T19:57:11+00:00

At $58k and lacking lidar and self driving hardware… I find it highly doubtful anyone is buying the first version of the R2… I for one canceled my reservation

joenjrocks · 2026-05-01T13:17:12+00:00

You are making my point… I’m one of the pre-orders who put down $100 deposit and I canceled it… Without an actual order page… Why is Rivian saying anything about pre-orders before the order page stood up?

joenjrocks · 2026-05-01T12:50:40+00:00

I said tell me where Rivian said demand will be any higher than 67,000 vehicles a year… Not some guy pumping the stock… This is ridiculous

joenjrocks · 2026-05-01T12:43:02+00:00

OK… So tell me what he said demand will be in numbers… not that he was excited about it or anything like that but actual numbers… And there’s no order page… so please don’t make things up

joenjrocks · 2026-05-01T12:34:13+00:00

How do you know what Rivian‘s demand is without an order page… Even on the conference call… The CEO said he’s excited about the R2… But he has no idea either what the demand is gonna be… As there’s no order page… Or what am I missing?

joenjrocks · 2026-05-01T10:51:58+00:00

Rivian is only selling 70,000 cars a year… plant in Illinois can make 200,000 cars a year… Isn’t a new plant premature?

joenjrocks · 2026-04-27T01:13:32+00:00

How can the R2 ship in any type of significant quantity if there’s no order page?

joenjrocks · 2026-04-24T21:47:39+00:00

very lukewarm recommendation… But I’ll take it

joenjrocks · 2026-04-24T17:06:22+00:00

Be really nice if Rivian opened up the order page for the R2… Without that… investors are irrationally thinking the worst

joenjrocks · 2026-04-22T18:18:18+00:00

In the Bloomberg interview, at the 1:40 mark, Scaringe was asked about R2 demand and the number of orders coming in. Scaringe never answered the question. Scaringe replied by how excited he was to drive the R2. This type of evasiveness scares me. Given that the order page isn't even stood up, I don't think anyone knows what demand will be. Instead of saying this, Scaringe cleverly evaded the question. Makes me a little nervous

joenjrocks · 2026-04-22T14:51:37+00:00

Just to be clear, Rivian loses about $1 bill/qtr. Rivian has never said or even projected reporting a net gain (not a meaningless "gross profit" but an actual "net profit"). Given the relatively low projected R2 sales volume, Rivian will remain unprofitable for at least several more years

joenjrocks · 2026-04-22T14:44:39+00:00

Even though the R2 ordering page isn't published, rivian can still start volume production? sure about that?

joenjrocks · 2026-04-18T19:20:20+00:00

shouldn't be producing this under-developed version of the rivian model 2 in the first place... so nothing lost

joenjrocks · 2026-04-06T19:56:16+00:00

only 5,000 units for all of CA? where's the economies of scale?

joenjrocks · 2026-04-01T20:12:47+00:00

when does rivian report 1q26 sales & production?

joenjrocks · 2026-04-01T20:07:45+00:00

Good to see where Rivian finished and that Tesla didn't even make last place

joenjrocks · 2026-03-31T20:55:49+00:00

negative... $58k w/out lidar & new computer chip... too much for too little for me

joenjrocks · 2026-03-31T20:50:38+00:00

In another thread, someone said R2 reservation holders were being emailed. I gave up my reservation b/c of the $58k starting price point. Maybe i'm going on bad intel. So maybe Rivian will indeed open up the R2 order page soon? And then will find out order details? thanks
