I had a deposit on a Lucid Air GT and when I decided to go for the Tesla MS Plaid (and when the 6+ month delays were actually ANNOUNCED by Lucid, I cancelled my order and got my $1,000 deposit back from Lucid thinking I would be taking delivery on my MS Plaid within 4-8 weeks from Feb, 2021...yeah right?!?!?!)
But, I also bought CCIV (SPAC) stock at a low price after the merger was announced and I now own some shares in LCID. I agree profitability will be a challenging long road for the company, but ultimately I think it will succeed and hoping I am able to triple or quadruple my $$ in stock investment over the years. We'll see, but Lucid is well funded and not going out of business anytime soon. I think they will be very successful in the future.
