A dog frolicking through the snow has to be the lowest hanging fruit in the advertising world.

So this morning I was driving up to the ski resort, there was an Infinity Q something or other. It was crabbing sideways and all four wheels were spinning. No snow tires, I drove around it in my 2006 mazda 3 with snow tires.

Smiling people in toques!

Actually I welcome our electric overlords. Especially if they roughly resemble FJC.

It’s difficult to suspend reality enough to believe that any vehicle driven on snowy roads looks that spotlessly clean. Yes, it’s a commercial and all that.

Also , goddam millenials and their goddam “experience” driven targeted marketing need to GTFO my lawn. I want to see this thing getting Clarkson’d up and down a ski slope.

That said, I’m kinda excited to see the actual vehicles.

When I did the Jeep Cherokee thing with Ray Wert years ago I remember they had a contractor out there with the Vehicles that w ip ed them down after ever take and cleaned them every night. I mean...you aren’t wrong that it would be so pretty and that its weird looking, but gnarly salt cover doesn’t really sell.

I like what Rivian is doing, and I hope they succeed. Someone needs to give Elon's ego a gut punch, and I think think these guys could do it.

I'm still of the opinion this is some established manufactures future jump start into electrification

So if I buy one my neurotic dog will frolick in the snow instead of constantly barking at air; my friends will be diverse, attractive, and exude inner peace; my jeans will be skinny and my lifestyle will be “active”; and I can skip work on powder days?

Where do I send my deposit?!

I think VW stands a chance, but given their track record, I'm not entirely rooting for them.

So many questions. Seriously, WTF is so funny that they were laughing about it all weekend? Why the slo-mo close up of what had to have been smelly socks? Why wasn’t anyone wearing helmets when presumably they’d have been hours from receiving any significant medical attention?

If that is the case, they’ve done a beyond amazing job of keeping it quiet. The auto industry is rife with leaks, and it seems almost impossible to keep something of that magnitude quiet for this long. On the one hand it makes sense, on the other hand I don’t see an established company being able to keep the connection out of the news.

I don’t think they know it yet. Im planning on them being bought out within a few years as as assets

This I very much believe. I thought you meant it was a stealth project by an established automaker. Yeah, I can see them getting bought out by one of the Big 3 in a couple years.
