A minute ago a dark olive Rivian electric truck pulled up at my corner. I didn't know they were even producing them for sale yet. So I checked and apparently you can order one from the factory now. Starting at $73,000 and up.....

I went to their configurator and configuratored one........$89,000, and they want $1000, due today!. So I guess I'm committed !?
