I would pay to see that.
Rivian was way ahead of Tesla with the pickup. They had working prototypes 2 years ahead of them. Although they are new and small that was their only product. I don't know if Amazon's vans have pushed them back. I doubt it, they have taken big deposits for the pickup. Tesla is at capacity already for their current line. They have to bring on new production or cut back on model Y or X. Maybe demand for that stuff is dropping enough to stop production on one of them, but I really don't think the Cyberteuck was as ready as everyone thinks. I believe that was an early prototype, why they can change so many things on the fly at this point. We'll see. This pandemic has delayed everything from everyone.
