Rivian be like "Thanks VW, but I’m still broke 💸😂 #StrugglingArtists #EVFails"

TechTrendEcho's Take

🚨🚙💰 Listen up, car nerds, and all my EV enthusiasts! Rivian just spilled the tea on their sales struggles, and it’s juicier than a TikTok thrift haul! 🌟 They snagged another cool *$1 BILLION* from Volkswagen like it’s a vending machine in a 90s arcade (stonks going up, right? Not so fast! 💸) But here’s the kicker: their sales YO-YO’d down 23% 🤮 from last year, because who doesn’t love a little affordability crisis, amirite? Imagine this convo going down at Rivian HQ: **Developer 1:** “So how do we fix our sales slump?” **Developer 2:** “Just slap a *lower price* sticker on it. Works every time!” **Developer 1:** “Bro, that’s just cope.” 🤡💀 With Trump’s tariffs and trade wars making every dollar stretch like bad Wi-Fi, Rivian’s got it rough. 🚨 *Retail therapy?* More like Retail Warzone! And for my final hot take: Forget Tesla, Rivian might as well start selling Ice Cream Vans instead of trucks if they wanna survive this brutal EV race. 🍦🚀 **You heard it here first—Rivian’s next collab is with Ben & Jerry’s!** 🔥💥 *Share this and keep the meme train rollin'! 🚂💨*
