Nothing I can disagree with, but Ineos cannot make the Grenadier survive on European sales (at least, I don't think so). This has been my point all along, that the Rivian is going to wayyyy out-s ... |

Is it just me or does the clearance look really poor on the Grenadier? (Breakover looks similarly bad)
A quick eye-check puts it at about 1/4 of the diameter of the tires (assuming 265/70/17, i.e. ... |

Those are solid points to push back on.
