I don't think you know what you are talking about with Lordstown. Everything is still on track to start production in late September. They already built 52 trucks from the production line for national safety testing.
Let's assume what you said had any merit, which is doesn't. Ok, so why didn't Lordstown just move their paint shop to another area of their plant? The plant is 6.5m sq. ft and they are only using 30% of the plant. There is even talk of Lordstown renting out the other 70% for extra income. https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/11/2...-manufacturing
BTW, Lordstown has online tours of their plant on their website and those ceilings are really high from the videos. You say a truck can't fit in there? Prove it. Just because it produced the Chevy Cruze doesn't prove anything.
But that's besides the point because everything is already set up for production. They still have $366m in cash on hand along with another $400m guaranteed by a hedge fund in can they don't get the ATVM Energy Dept loan that Tesla, Ford, Fisker and Nissan got [[totaling over $8.4B). The new CEO was brought over from the Icahn Group who has a track record of being a turnaround agent in other automotive companies.
You don't know what you are talking about.
