Second look at Rivian
I remain a fan of Sandy Munro and this latest YouTube show why:
- Rivian has gone KISS on their current generation
- reduce electrical wiring and controllers
- simplified suspension
- casting battery pack parts
- Next year version is another clean sheet design
- Sensible self-driving
- cameras and radar
- Sensible, car focused CEO
On the theory of buy low and sell high, I may put a little 'mad money' into Rivian stock. I like the CEO, their technical direction, and practicality.

Driving to Vicksburg (FSD)
For New Years, my Tesla is driving me to Riverwalk Casino, Vicksburg, MS:
The Tesla will does the driving while I listen to music or radio and enjoy the trip:
This video shows how my Full Self Driving works:
Seven minutes long, you might want to speed it up. Not shown in this video, FSD also alerts me to deer and critters on the road at night. Also, it alerts me to traffic jams and blockages to reroute well in advance.
Recently, Tesla sent me a $8,500 trade-in estimate. But the $6,000 I paid in 2019 makes Full Self Driving more valuable than the battery. As the battery aged, EV range is now closer to 200 miles but the growth of DC chargers has been faster than the battery degradation. Furthermore, I can also charge at CCS-1 stations when taking a bathroom break, short cut, or a side trip.
