It's a grim moment for what was a booming industry in the state. But EV makers are still forging ahead.

I hope your post doesn't get deleted. I posted one about the military (61% Trump) and got deleted because of it being a generalization. (Not every military member voted for Trump.)

Plans for the Rivian plant are still going ahead as far as I can tell (give me the R3X!!!)

Talk to owners...months waiting for parts, and due to poor design, a rear quarter dent is a $20,000 repair. No idea why they cost so much.

I am an owner and can confirm my truck has been at the shop for most of the summer waiting on parts. Otherwise I'm really happy with it.
