Even if I loved the vehicle and was willing to pay a premium for it, I’d never buy a Rivian for one simple reason: I’d have no confidence that the company will still be in business a year from now if I need to buy parts for repairs.

True that. I believe in the earliest Rivian days a selling point was that Ford Motor Co invested in Rivian -- the idea being that Ford would make sure parts would be available even if Rivian went under. But I believe Ford divested from Rivian.
