Nothing wrong with the Ridgeline. Well, unless some hipster shows up wielding a sledge hammer I guess. ..and you can't, for some reason just drive away.

My first thought on seeing it was that after the DOT regs and IIHS get through with it, it will look like the original Ridgeline.

Marques makes some good points.

How has the Rivian—a Photoshop jelly bean filter version of the Big 3 trucks all mashed together—sold?

Thank you, nothing new or weird here, where were all a nay sayers when Lambo and Cadillac went through their sharp/angular phase, heck many new supercars look like that!

I'm not in the market but if you gave me one I would drive it.

146,000 $100 refundable(?) deposits = 8 Billion? seems maybe 14.6M$

And how much will Tesla lose on each one of those sales?

8 billion is total retail price. Approximately 146,000 *55,000
