Ford F-150 Lightning: Fast Truck, Slow Computer

I want to know if it's even remotely possible for a EV truck company like Rivian to unseat the F-150 as America's best selling truck within the next 5 years?

No. They simply do not have the manufacturing capacity/ability.

Also Rivian only seems interested in manufacturing luxury vehicles.

FWIW I own some Rivian stock.

Rivian doesn't make a full size pickup truck. Their only bed length is far smaller than the smallest currently-available ICE truck beds.

They make a really cool love child of a VW bus, Jeep and El Camino instead.
