Still haven't seen one in the wild. I've seen everything from Porsche Taycan to Rivian R1T and R1S. I've been to multiple Superchargers from NorCal to SoCal...still waiting to see one other than in a mall

 

Still haven’t spotted R1S, but seen a dozen or so Taycans on the local freeways, and even the original Tesla roadster twice. Have not spotted a Lucid Air yet.

 

I've seen one R1S...so it's not vaporware! It's a really nice looking SUV with 3 rows...actual usable rows! They are even saying it will be delivered by end of 2023. When I eventually replace my Sienna, it's between the Polestar 3 or R1S

 

It had a real presence on the road, IMO

 

I'm hoping to see one in person, and I'm really hoping they do well so they can bring a real Luxury EV sedan into the market

 

Sorry, but the Air does not do it for me. Each to their own, I guess.
The was a nice white Rivian at Costco today. I see one about once a week.

I think I already posted this pic, but here goes anyway...

 

i predict lucid will be out of business in a year. and possibly rivian right behind them.

jeff, your pic doesn't show for me.

 

It's off topic anyways, no need for a Rivian picture in this thread.

In any event, I think Lucid and Rivian will be purchased by some other company before going bankrupt. They both have excellent engineering behind them.

 

That would be a shame. From what I’ve gathered from articles and owners, Rivian has a quality product. I sure hope their stock doesn’t go to zero but anything is possible. Rivian doesn’t have as charismatic of a CEO as Tesla. JR Scaringe is basically trying to follow I’m Elon’s footsteps but lacks the vision of Elon or a Steve Jobs, then again very few are visionaries of our generation. I think Rivian has strong financial backing and isn’t encumbered by having to lead. They can save a lot of money by learning from Tesla and still have a good chance to succeed. Let’s revisit this in a year.

 

Lucid isn’t going bankrupt. They have extremely well-funded backers. And not for that matter are Rivian going bankrupt.

 

I seem to be having a permissions problem with pics. Not sure what it is. I snapped a pic of an Air right ahead of me near our home is Los Gatos.
Lemme try again...

 

I think that picture looks cool

 

my neighbor turns out to be a dealer for the lucid air since i've seen 2 cars of different colors frequent my street with dealer plates.

it's definitely subtle and understated. i pointed it out to my wife and she just said "that's a new car"?

 

Full length light strips are thing again huh? It's only been 30 years.

 

it was slowly making a comeback when LED lights made things easier to package. some OEMs are better at it than others.
