750+ Mile Solo Road Trip in my Rivian R1S!

I recently went on a road-trip in my Rivian R1S from Los Angeles to Salt Lake! I wanted to experience what it was like to go on a solo adventure and get over my range anxiety when it comes to long road-trips in an EV.

I love how there's a lot of space in the Rivian. It looks like if you sit in the backseat, a 10 hour drive will feel like 2 hours while you're all cozied up.

Jenna … love these kinds of videos. One thing I'd recommend is getting a ceramic clear tint for your front windshield. I got one on my car and it cuts down that hot sun heat by 65%! Makes it so much more comfortable when traveling and having the sun on your hands and lap! Cheers! PS - EA chargers are the worst .. they just don't have their act together. The experience should change significantly once Telsa opens up their networks for all cars (but that seems to be taking forever)!

@JennaEzarik 8 ай бұрын

A FEW THINGS: 1. I stayed WAY longer at chargers than I should have because.. well.. obvious reasons. 2. I had to use the 150kw instead of 350kw because they were occupied which obviously took longer. 3. I had to stop and pee..A LOT 4. I actually didn't mind the added time for charging, because most stops had food/shopping/other things to do. I did my best shopping while charging at all the Walmarts lol. 5. I learned a LOT, and I did the entire drive in one day on the way back which I did vlog as well.. and I cut off HOURS of time that I wasted from the first trip. :)

I find it hard to believe that doing this on an economic diesel powered (since diesel is usually cheaper than gas ) vehicle would cost you more than the shown 141$

@bbgator1 7 ай бұрын

@@kirdot2011 Video shows what an average person would do that knows nothing about EVs would do. I could do that trip in any EV or gas cheaper, but cost wasn’t the point. EVs shine in town when you charge at home. L2 chargers at hotels are intended to be used overnight. Shouldn’t charge for so long at each stop

Get your windshield tinted with a very light 70% nano ceramic tint. It will make your vehicle cooler and block the UV rays and heat off of you and your interior. 70% tint is light, almost clear. You can’t really tell it’s on the window, but makes a world of difference with the heat rejection and also cuts some glare.

If you haven't already you need to install a ceramic window tint that will block the infrared heat from passing through your windows. Xpel Prime XR Plus for example will block up to 98% of IR heat from passing through the glass which makes a massive difference in your comfort while in the vehicle and in an EV allow you to save range by not having to run your AC as hard. I tinted every window on my Tesla and it's amazing.

Looks like you missed the ice cream stop in Beaver. It makes the charging stop much more pleasant! The Creamery is in the middle of town & has great ice cream & cheese. We got ice cream & ate it during our charging session there. Charging goes quickly & we really enjoyed the Ice cream.

@naazimmaredia796 8 ай бұрын

I took my Rivian on my first long trip and I can say I won’t be doing that again. Getting to my destination was a breeze as there was a Rivian charging station at the half way point. I spent 3 days there and it was a nightmare to find charging that worked properly. Heading back wasn’t fun either. So until we get more RAN stations out there I don’t think I will be taking it on trips any time soon.

Need to get ceramic tint all around. I have an R1T with it on the roof, windshield, and all sides + rear. Even in 108 degree heat in TX it's a cool, calm oasis inside. Also, you can turn off the lane departure chime in settings!

@ooLonestar 8 ай бұрын

I completely agree with the ceramic tint. We did Solar Gard ZenithIR on all windows including the roof and front windshield in our R1S. ZenithIR 45 on driver and passenger windows and ZenithIR 80 on all other glass. It makes a huge difference.

If you add $25 for the Barstow charge, Electricity $172.2 for 750 miles (Add $125 for hotel = $297) . A full size SUV gets about 18 MPG so 750 miles will need 42 gallons of gas. At $3.75 a gallon that's $157. You had to pay for a hotel just to do 750miles and spent about 6-8 hours at charging and eat every time. A gas car will do 750 miles in a day: It saves you time and is MUCH CHEAPER .

@ChaosRandomness 8 ай бұрын

Hmm, My 15' Altima gets about 450-500 miles to the tank, about 60 to get full. So 120ish and fueling is easier. Compare to Rivian, its not bad. For the time/cost, I was expecting time be higher and cost be lower, so not bad results

@janpur1417 8 ай бұрын

$120 for 950 miles in your Altima. YOu are saving more than her. Electricity is not cheap and anxiety to find the next station and have an open terminal, if not, wait 1 hour per car.

@danpass12 7 ай бұрын

Based on this and other EV road trip videos the gas savings seems to be spent on hotels (and one’s time). It’s ok if the road trip intentionally includes sightseeing but I still submit that hybrid is the future, ideally where the fuel engine is a generator to the battery system (vs part of the powertrain).

You don't gain nearly as much with most hybrids on the highway. They're better for city driving when it comes to fuel economy. I wish plug in hybrids took off more, but most consumers were generally confused by them. 40-60 miles on electric is great for most people...then for longer trips it's a normal hybrid.

My first question is the charging time. Do you think it's a little long? My second question is how reliable is the charging? Do you have to switch to a different charger because they sometimes don't work? Is there a 120v household plug in the back of the Rivian incase you wanted to plug an appliance in?

@bbgator1 7 ай бұрын

Love her videos, but not a source for EV info. Look up Out of Spec videos for EV info. She did charging all wrong, but it shows a worst case situation. EV charging isn’t perfect, there are apps and a few techniques that you have to learn to have a great experience. Like EA has to be initiated on the app when you plug in and not on the payment screen or you will have her re-plug problem.

I am both envious and realizing i could literally never do that trip. Part of me wishes i was more adventurous, but a bigger part of me knows i am basically in a full coma after a 2 hours trip to flaggstaff 😂 Hope to get a part 2 of the road trip back home! Stay safe out there!
