If you follow the tech or auto industry you know about the massive computer chip shortage. That chip shortage is costing the auto industry billions of dollars because hundreds of thousands of cars and trucks can not be produced without these key components. Well, that is true for Ford, Chrysler, GM, Honda and Toyota, it is not true for Tesla. So how did Tesla avoid the chip shortage.

The Rivian is perfect for Mickey Mouse fans and the Cybertruck makes it look like it's from the 90's.

I was thinking the Rivian looked more like early 2000s, sort of like the Nissan Cube. The Cybertruck is right out of 1984, it looks like John DeLorean designed it after doing a few too many lines.
