Continuing the EV talk from B2. My concern with Lucid us that the cars they've produced and delivered have all been hand built

That isn't sustainable. I don't think they intend to just be a hand builder of high end luxury sedans. But moving from hand building cars to full scale production with some level of automation is a big hill to climb.

Yep. Rivian needed big bucks to get rolling with that. I want to get one of the pickups, but I'm told we have no use for a pickup. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 12:17 13
- you need one to tow the boat -- nm - decline Nov 18, 12:36 11
  - The boat I want is too big to tow -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 12:37 10

        ... and if I do get a boat, I might get one of those to go with it. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 13:02 2
        
        I want an amphibious car. -- nm - Spawn Nov 18, 13:03 1
        
        How about Cybertruck? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 13:13
    - you need a pickup to carry all the stuff to put in the boat that's too big to tow -- nm - decline Nov 18, 12:39 1
      - That's officer thinking! -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 12:40
    - Then you may have no use for a pickup. -- nm - Spawn Nov 18, 12:37 2
      - Except for camping (twice a year, a stone's throw from home) and bike riding (we have a bike rack). Gah. I want to test drive an R1T. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 12:39 1
        
        Ooh, but I guess I sort of could test drive the F150... -- nm - Beryllium Nov 18, 12:40
- L5! (that last bit) -- nm - Spawn Nov 18, 12:32
