One of the biggest reasons why I put a deposit down. It's roughly the same size, has some cool styling options, seems to have Rivians solid UI, much improved charging, and by the time I could buy it I'll have paid my lightning off. I like my truck but the more time passes without news about T3 the more I think ford could be sitting out the next gen. But who knows, still a lot of time between now and '27.
Interesting and where we expect satellite would some day be. When Starlink was first announced we wondered if Tesla vehicles would be equipped, but there was no way with first generation of dishes. Now with the smaller panels that can be used on the go, we have to be a lot closer for full time moving vehicle use and we already have aircraft usage. It would be hard to imagine another vendor beating Starlink to that fully mobile solution to replace ATT, and although Scout may be showing some of it, if Starlink is involved you can bet that Musk will have it in a Tesla before another vehicle hits production with it.
