- Need a second car as my spouse RTO next week - We could also use an all wheel drive for skiing, MTB, and camping (been limited with our current 2 wheel drive) - Dont long for nicer cars, would prefer better utility, less maintenance, and some rough usage Below is the analysis i’ve done. Whats better value for the money? #rivianautomotive #r1t
FYI, there is no such thing as a lease down payment. All your doing is prepaying the monthly payments to reduce your current payment. So your RT1 should reflect 9,472 higher. If you were to put 9,472 down on the X5 then I would say it's ok to include the prepayment on the lease calculation
Yes, i was planning to put the same amount of downpayment on x5. It is reflected in reduced interest. Thanks!
3600 in fuel over 3 years? It will be more than twice that unless you don't drive much
That’s not an apples to apples comparison. But for the price the bmw makes somewhat more sense. Although the 2k for electrical install? I pad $650 to add an outlet in my garage for a model y. That being said u can get a model y for a lot cheaper than these. But between those 2. Car I rather have: rivian, car I rather pay for: bmw
Does rivian not need new tires in 3 years? EVs are known to rip up tires real fast. It’s almost confirmed you will need a new set of tires for your rivian in 3 years. Also, new set of tires are more like 2k.
if you have to finance it, you can't afford any of these. Buy an old car that you can afford twice, with cash.
What? Why? I have cash sitting in Wealthfront earning 5% that i plan to deploy soon. Why not finance it?
