At least with ICE you have some degree of control even if the parent company goes under. With an EV? You're pretty much driving a brick around.
I don't see Rivian is going anywhere. They are making a highly desirable product. Even if they go bankrupt, someone will swoop in to keep them going. It will take a number of years for them to boost production, much less become profitable.

I'm seriously considering on taking $20K and buying their stock as a "What the hell?" buy. The stock has held steady in the $35 range for quite a while. I might loose my ass or it might go up to $100+/share in 5 years.
