NFR RIP In Peace Cybertruck

Non-fishing related
A friend has one and he let me drive it a year ago or so. It’s the Beast model. It was pretty fun to drive. 0-60 mph in 2.6 seconds. It blows away many supercars. when riding with him, I had to ask him not to step on it so often because I thought that I was going to get whiplash.
 
Well, the good news is Elon can afford it. They could've been so cool. This Chinese truck was pretty cool looking, but they went bankrupt. If you can't sell in the US you're probably not going to sell many trucks.

I actually own 115 shares of Rivian stock. I got an unexpected correction payout when I transferred my 401k. I did a little research on some low priced stocks that might pay off someday. I went with Rivian at $13.26 per share. Still waiting. 😁
I'm just going to sit on it and see what happens. If they're even decently successful with the R2 I would think the stock would at least get back to $20 or so. It hit $22 back in December. Probably shoulda sold then! 🐻 or 🐂 ??

one of my high school buddies was gifted an Edsel when his grandfather passed away, we ribbed the hell out of him when he showed up with it....then we went for a ride in which he floored that 410 ci engine on hwy #1 until we were yelling for him to slow down...way cool was the Teletouch transmission push buttons on the steering wheel hub ...aside from the boat styling, it was an engineering marvel for it's day.
 
I am just grooving that @Tim L went deep to remind us that the most polarizing vehicle up until the cybertruck was the Pontiac Aztec

I first realized the world had truly changed when I was down in Silicon Valley a couple years ago visiting relatives: when we got off a crowded highway, we were the only ICE vehicle in a many car line of electric cars waiting for the light....

Shut this thread down! What with driving around in a ICE vehicle and all.... ohhh wait, nevermind, I think Tallguy means Internal Combustion Engine...

Did something similar with Arcimoto. Really liked their product. Then, they folded. Ouch.

Did this with Amazon in 2001 at the same price. Sometimes it's worth the wait.
