24 years old and he can afford a $85K truck?

Sorry. No sympathy, if he does not do his due diligence in researching the brand/model/class of vehicle he wants.

Are the usual sources of information on vehicles providing unbiased, realistic reviews on EVs so due diligence can be done? Or are they filled with enviro-propaganda pushing electric vehicles as not only inevitable, but desirable?

Interesting the timing of this article. Just the other day there was an article here of someone in Columbus Ohio getting a $42,000 repair estimate for a Rivian that was involved in a minor rear end collision. Insurance Co. estimated $1500, repair shop estimated $42,000

So, Rivian = Expensive to Buy, Expensive to Repair, and now seems it’s also unreliable. $85K well spent!!!!!

No one is so bad/stupid that they cannot serve as a good example.

He was too young when he signed the loan documents. He can't be held responsible for that. He was tricked into it.

It is only fair that the tax payers are forced to pay back the loan for him.

I still drive my $26K 2014 Honda Accord.
Doesn’t break down, good gas mileage, and it gets me to my destination.

There are still young guys around who will do almost anything to impress girls.
