Gerber's praise for Rivian comes in contrast to Tesla CEO Elon Musk's skepticism about the company. This is not the first time Gerber has shown support for Rivian, having previously praised the company for fulfilling R1S orders.
Gerber 對 Rivian 的讚揚和 Tesla CEO Elon Musk 對該公司的懷疑形成了對比。這不是 Gerber 第一次支持 Rivian，他之前曾表揚該公司履行了 R1S 訂單。
Why It Matters: Earlier this year, Gerber and fellow Tesla investor Gary Black mocked Musk's comments about Rivian, noting that Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe doesn't need to "sleep at the factory" to achieve success.
爲什麼這很重要：今年早些時候，Gerber 和特斯拉的另一位投資者 Gary Black 嘲笑了 Musk 對 Rivian 的評論，指出 Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe 不需要“在工廠睡覺”才能取得成功。
Despite Musk's skepticism, Gerber has consistently shown optimism for Rivian's future, emphasizing the brand's strong appeal and potential for growth.
儘管 Musk 感到懷疑，但 Gerber 一直對 Rivian 的未來保持樂觀，強調該品牌的強大吸引力和增長潛力。
