Do u have any better recommendations for EVs available in the USA that don't have a rich dickhead involved? The slate truck looks very appealing I'm not gonna lie!

Is the Rivian owner an asshole too? I don't know enough about him honestly that's the only one I'm not too familiar with.

The Nissan leaf is always an option though they seem to be well received. And the bigger model one of the Nissan electric line I can't remember the name.

I could never support Nissan after all their predatory loan tactics, their fucking sheisters and feed on poor people! Can't speak on rivian don't know much about the company besides their too expensive lol well over 2x price of a slate.

Buy a used EV. They all drop in price dramatically.
