I vote for Vivian the Rivian :) Love that interior so much and the blue exterior as well. Perfect choices in my opinion!

[@LAV8TV]

Loved this video. Thanks for such an in-depth look!!!

[@amyrobinson4153]

Hi Jenna. Great video. I picked up my R1S (Limestone OC 20"dark) a few weeks back and went on my first road trip recently, but I lucked out and had no issues besides a little range anxiety since this is my first EV. Can't wait for the Tesla network to be open to us. I named mine EVie. Someone else recommended River and I thought that would be cute for your blue. Btw, we were almost twins. I had Limestone on order but committed to a blue once I got shop access but it ended up that it was already taken. I took it as a sign to wait for my Limestone and one came up that evening with my exact specs. I do love the blue though. The R1S is the BEST car I have ever driven and soooo fast! Enjoy your new ride Rivi sister!

[@Chrisrosas]

Thank you Jen for this video I love it it’s so informative

[@allroadsawesome]

Great vlog. Love seeing the travels

[@emilysousa]

love the video so much Jenna!

[@wolf_pup5620]

Yay!!!! I love Jenna road trips

[@GrahamZagorski]

always enjoy the videos!!!

[@malo_213]

Road-trips are the best drinks&snacks for the road! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼in September I’m taking a road trip to Utah! 🙌🏼🙌🏼great vlog Jenna!

[@lenalenabobena]

I've always been curious about the Rivian! Very cool.

[@tiborkovacs5317]

What a story the ups the downs electrifying... Hahah... Great vid well shown & told glad your enjoying your EV... Thanks.

[@aryheic]

LOVE THIS VLOG !!!!

[@wyatt4778]

The R1S looks amazing!

[@PhatNutz]

"i'm really bad at doing stuff" (16:48) - love it! 😂

[@jamesbrookes4415]

Great video Jenna. 😊

[@JulesLoesch]

Usually, the breakers trip cause the car is trying to pull too many amps, and in some homes with older wiring/smaller breakers/too many outlets on one circuit trip. You can lower the charging amps in the car or find an outlet in a garage/refrigerator/laundry room (if accessible). Usually, but not always, they are on their own circuit. Yes, it will be even slower then 12amp level 1, but its better than nothing. Hope that helps for next time.

[@voltspc9394]

GFI plugs are also way more sensitive to over current than breakers, so just lower the amperage from 12 to 8 and you should be fine

[@iamnid]

Exactly, dial the amps down in the R1S and it probably would have charged fine at the Airbnb

[@epicchris1985]

Great video as always! Love the car. Once charging places become much more around your be all set 👍

[@epicchris1985]

@曹家華 no spam thanks 👍

[@tonyjohansson2967]

Joshua tree 😊💕 what a great video! Looking forward to more adventures with you and Rivi 😂👍

[@manuelias86]

Looked like a fun trip!

[@MissJsoul]

More videos on the rivian please amazing video

[@Dhintheman]

the desert looks nice and inviting, I particularly like the bathroom and that amazing bedroom.

[@architecturehappy]

Great review, getting that exact gun and rds for EDC

[@JHawk]

Greatest vlog of all time

[@sofiw8095]

i love the way you called it with Rivi sounds cute for me but cool at the same time

[@ScottWallace5]

Great video Jenna, love the vlog as always! Really enjoying the recent Vivi the Rivi content and looking forward to more exciting videos in the future from it too!

[@stacyepps4703]

Love the color

[@DrCalvinTeach]

I love your channel Jenna! This didn’t really sell me on EVs but I definitely think I could do a hybrid!

[@andreiandy3922]

Hey Jenna, great video! I vote for Rivi ! Rivi the Rivian.

[@skyrock913]

Hi Jenna! I found you out of random! I really like your videos and you made me want to get a Rivian! I hope i can get one someday! Keep it up!!

[@GadgetsKev]

I love your road trips, and especially when in an EV!

[@KHudso]

Rivian just announced they are switching to the Tesla connector! That means you will be able to use the supercharging network which is FAR superior to electricity America. Older Rivian’s can use it too with adapters

[@Superman-xr1oh]

​@@quentinsmith6861He's not.

[@jonpetter8921]

Technically both Tesla and EA use the same charging protocol CCS, just different connectors.

[@adambedor5408]

Name suggestion: Smurfette... or is that before your time? ;) -- Thanks for another video. I just picked up last week my El Cap with OC and 22" wheels... and agree with you... 100%, I LOVE IT !!!! Best SUV i've owned. Quality no matter where you look or touch. It's a dream SUV.

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

This is amazing

[@AlanJohnsrud]

TWRAPS also makes one for the Mach E. Love it, just wish the magnets were stronger.

[@schlotdoglaser]

Awesome video. We have the Blue R1T and my wife named it Lapis

[@ledniz]

I’m jealous, would love a Rivian. My suggestion for a name is Belle, like the flower blue belles.

[@11SCIONRELEASESERIE]

Badass vehicle imo

[@brentbristol4549]

Rivian Blue with the Ocean interior, very nice spec

[@larrytan73]

Fire Fire!

[@crispinhands7610]

Great video! Love that you're playing Minecraft Legends!

[@techguy943]

Aside from the charging issues you encountered at your Airbnb Jenna that’s a sweet ride You need to do an LA to PA trip in that thing IF POSSIBLE

[@JennaEzarik]

I’m thinking about it

[@Miamitechsalesentertainment]

@@JennaEzarik California is not the same as before come to Florida ✔️💵

[@StalePhish]

It's like Rivian was watching this video! Today they announced that they'll be compatible with Tesla Superchargers in the near future!

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

Jenna you are the best

[@davidbarrett0314]

I love your videos Jenna keep making us happy with your soothing content and voice ❤

[@imadabualia4843]

Great video. You should start picking the chargers that support 250kwh

[@garyp432]

Love the car . The colour is great

[@Rich-yh4pn]

Nice road trip

[@raspberryland_]

Jenna makes me want to have a Rivian 😩

[@Superman-xr1oh]

You'll be able to charge at Tesla superchargers next year with Rivian thanks to the new partnership. That should make charging easier.

[@bestechYtBotBH]

Jenna is always rivian around the corner everywhere in her brand new car 🚗 ❤😊 zoom in zoom out, it's still Jenna 😮 and ya pulling behind you in the commentary, I've been subbed to John Retiner for years

[@justpaintitright6442]

cool r1s i got the r1t freaking love it

[@budahflame6221]

That car is so cool 🎉

[@joebass5163]

I think the rivian has adjustable suspension and you can lower it to help with loading and unloading your luggage.

[@KateClough1717]

Loved this video! The rivian is so cool 🎉 I saw one the other day and was like “it’s Jenna’s car!” 😂 hmmmmm you could name her Azuli? Since she’s blue? 😊

[@martinacuna7869]

Jen, will they send you the new charger out let thing or will you have to have it installed?

[@chadolof]

My first video of yours I’ve ever watched! You did an amazing job!! What’s your camera and mic setup??

[@Specificpickle]

I recommend just using your level 1 charger at home. It will likely be enough you can always leave your car plugged in. It’s what I do for my Tesla.

[@alancalvillo6756]

I gotta get that Rivian R1S

[@chudman71]

Nice colour car, never seen or heard of this make before.

[@angli232]

Nice ride, finally upload the roadtrip with this car, hopefully soon rivian will add a tesla charging Adapter for charging at tesla super charging station!

[@Snakpakk]

No shade but that Rivian just seems high quality when compared to any Tesla. Well designed and quality parts all around. Really impressed from what I've seen.

[@coraleestedile5061]

Love the Rivian been following From the start but not loving the BS to charge when travelling.

[@MatthewGoat91515]

It’s worth noting that the EV infrastructure (both grid wise and station wise) will improve with time. Also, Rivian is switching to NACS, Tesla’s connector, so Superchargers can also be accessed starting 2025. Both EV Infrastructure and EV adoption will only accelerate through the coming years in my opinion.

[@Golddragon214]

When you showed all the chargers available I had hope that Cali had it down and you could charge almost anywhere. But not the case. I live in a remote area in New York State and the only charging stations are at the Mall 25 miles away. But the State wants everyone to have electric vehicles and electric stoves.

[@Adam-om8pc]

sounded like it was the GFCI trip on the outlet. I do believe they said not to use gfci outlets because that can happen. The chargers have built in gfci. I charge my MachE on a gfci so don’t have that issue but i have read that can happen, but also, my gfci is on a 20amp breaker, perhaps those at the airbnb were just a 15amp.

[@AkChica81]

Friggin sweet! i want one and a drone lol

[@comealongwithmeeuropebysdt4549]

You need at least a 20 Amp dedicated outlet to charge at the common 110V outlet!! If you get a charger installed at home, get a 60 Amp 240V outlet or direct wired to your charger, find a charger that will charge your car at 50 Amp so you have a 20% safety headroom on the circuit, so it is not overloaded!!

[@zmorton]

Name has to be River. It's blue! 🚙💨🤣

[@martykauffman]

So I live on the Oregon coast and 67 degrees is a very nice day not cold at all

[@rickygonzalez2519]

I think you should name your Rivian Jane after your cat. I love this video Jenna.

[@Dale-ko9kc]

First thing that came to mind is power soar. They just don't go far enough to take the plunge. If the soared just a little farther like 100 miles maybe. Thinking about it but, Hmmm.

[@kareemanderson]

How has Vivian (viv for short) the Rivian not been added here?

[@CaesarDelgado]

I took today off work to watch this video 😀

[@88ChrisN]

How much does it cost to charge the Rivian? I would hate waiting all that time.

[@CityOverlanding-dz4hc]

Name your truck Blue Angel! 🤣

[@migueljose4729]

5:35 I love your all black outfit and sunglasses combo! You look like a spy/secret agent!❤

[@lift-away-luke8821]

We have a 2015 Tesla Model S 70D and we had range anxiety at first but we have gotten over it and it is such a nice car! EV is seriously the future and is already so far along and can't wait to see the future. Great vlog Jenna!!!

[@1micYT]

Jenna using an RCN1….that’s surprising!!

[@xbox21st]

Seems nice to ride in a EV vehicle. I just waiting for the VW id buzz (microbus) to come out in the states whenever vw comes out with it. Love the Rivian.

[@SkytheKorok]

Rivian just committed to switching to Tesla’s NACS hopefully the charging reliability will improve when they switch 😩

[@mattsimon931]

got to the bit about the turn signal, made me laugh. I stopped a test drive solely based on a loud turn signal once.

[@JennaEzarik]

Hahahahah well this one is quiet 🤣

[@mike311]

Nice Airbnb, if you don’t mind what’s the info on the house please? Looks like a great place to stay at.

[@chazwheeler4830]

Hi, can you please tell me which unit that you stayed in ... this is an amazing place and I would love to rent it out for a couple of days... I really appreciate it... Love your vids!

[@ivandrol4733]

jon needs to be on the credits😂

[@EveryDayJay415]

If that wall charger is as heavy as The one our model S came with I wouldn’t feel bad. I always thought that hey should of made the first part of it longer so the heavy box can rest on the floor. It always feels like it’s going to damage anything you plug it into. Congratulations on the new whip!

[@TeslaDo_d]

Wow, that EVgo charging session would have killed me during a road trip. I typically pull away from the Tesla super chargers once my power draw drops below 100kW. I only want to see 50kW if I'm desperate or eating dinner.

[@JulesLoesch]

Also, R1S & R1T have a powered frunk :)

[@DrPubz]

Jenna you look great! I remember the video where you broke down and told us you weren't having a great time with your health. Idk if I'm right but you look really happy and healthy in your recent videos, especially this one. I really hope I'm right and you're doing well! Take care! Great video too, as always! Very fun!

[@acceleratedauto]

What editing application were you using?

[@Italian.Guy1988]

Bring it back.

[@jon.steele]

Love the car, maybe Vivian the Rivian

[@JB-ej2qy]

R1S👍 Your Airbnb looked great. We always have bad luck with Airbnb. What DJI do you have? I’m thinking about buying one? Any recommendation?

[@Xwing106466]

The charging still needs to cook before I'm all in. I'd love to have an alternative to my F--250 turbo diesel but EV isn't there yet. But I can see it closing the gap over the next 10 years or so.

[@thetriplees4290]

0:45 jenna, lower the car from the screen so that u don't have to lift it that high.

[@slyguyaction]

Such a nice Air BNB. The Joshua Tree Saloon has some great food and a chill vibe. When you were talking about available charging I was like, AAARRRGGHH! The ChargePoint in town! Sure enough, you found it. ChargePoint is more reliable than Electrify America but watching this video hit different considering Rivian is signing on with Tesla to make all their charging stations available to Rivian vehicle owners! Really a game changer. Now, charging a CCS car won't be as much of an issue. Great video! Looking forward to more Rivian content!!

[@Superman-xr1oh]

Tesla FTW.

[@williampatrie514]

Don't let Justine drive it.😂😂😂

[@TCDShow]

Why wouldn’t the Rivian RS one have wireless charge?

[@WFO.]

The range anxiety is too much 😩

[@janiriscraig9685]

Blue ❤

[@thedcfgrp938]

WHATS THE LINK FOR THAT AIRBNB? LOOKS AWESOME…
