Just be careful not to dent quarter panels on a rivian. It’s something like $40k to replace. Normally a $2k-$3k job on any other pick up truck.

These car companies suck when it becomes to repairability.

Edit: I’m not going to argue with naysayers below, this dude was quoted $41k but was able to PDR(https://www.thedrive.com/news/41000-rivian-fender-bender-act...). Tesla repairs with giga casting are also a lot more expensive than similar “regular” cars. This isn’t an issue of unibody design. My family owned a body shop and I painted cars for few years.

I will stick with main stream brands like Toyota.
