    They bought it back due to a persisting issue preventing the owner from driving it for a total of 45 days…. It’s a lemon.

    Cars like the Rivian are connected 24/7. No need to buy them for data.

      No need to buy them for data.

      I mean, that’s just naive.

      There’s lots of “Data” that isn’t something you can infer from the sensors/logs.

      There is a ton of information to learn from taking the truck apart, opening parts up, etc… Now whether they actually do that or not is another issue altogether.
