>Almost doesn’t matter how good these EV alternatives are if they can’t ship 100k units in the US. Rivian is basically a startup, they shouldn't be lumped in with everyone else's capabilities. As for the existing brands, I don't think it's because they're not capable. They're still printing money from their current vehicles so they're slowly rolling over engineering resources and funding to the EV side of things. The EV truck market is basically non-existent. Rivian is realistically the only manufacturer who has to worry about competition for the next few years. The F-Series generated $42 billion in revenue for 2019[1] without any EV powertrains offered. If Ford put 100% of their engineering manpower and funds towards EV's tomorrow they would cripple themselves.
