    I’ve kept the faith and held on to my WW stock - all $1.35 worth.

    thanks for the look inside.... filling a gravel parking lot with inventory thats depreciating every day and not being sold is an interesting business model. Explains the .17 cent share price.

    I wish this particular company all the success that they so richly deserve.
    For so long they were hampered by wrong decision at high-altitude (from far above)
    and recently, they had to loose much time re-designing and rectifying heritage decisions and practices.
    So many "emergent" EV step-van
    and EV "last-mile" commercials brands die,
    with huge waste of input,
    when the start-up funds finally get exhausted
    just before they emerge triumphant.

    This is like manufacturing even before 1900s.

    I’m still invested in this company. This video shows a huge improvement over one I saw a few years ago where it looked like some bubbas working on a project in their home garage. Still, very lethargic. Should probably edit out the part where the ladies are masking for paint. That’s not how the big boys do it. Cmon.

    Painting after half assembly is a time and money killer. Holy crap.

    Pretty sure they would benefit to sell chassis 001 and 002.

    Body on chassis at separate facilities is strategic. It's what UCBC was.

      Pretty sure UCBC (Union City Body Company) doesn't exist anymore. So, unless they want to ship chassis across the country to another company, building together seems like a good idea to me.

      ​@@MrTwinkieeater - There were separate companies, Union City Body Company and Workhorse Custom Chassis.
      WCC would make the ICE chassis', and they would be mated with bodies from UCBC.
      UCBC closed and in 2013 WCC was purchased by AMP, a company started by Steve Burns. AMP renamed itself to Workhorse to gain the name recognition held by the previous company.

    The company has been struggling financially for years. You are now on the verge of bankruptcy and you find it a smart business decision to build a horse barn and house actual horses?!

    No RS. Stop screwing over faithful investors and go out of business already.
