The compressor you dislike is simply a user interface of the compressor that’s ALREADY in the car which manages the air suspension. Rivian basically thought it was an easy way to help adventurers out by giving them access to the hardware they’ve already paid for in the r1

I have a Model Y w/FSD and a R1T w/Max Pack. Tesla has superior software and music, but Rivian is a better road tripper. I like driving my wife's MY around town w/FSD and the R1T on trips. The R1T takes fewer charges per 1,000 miles. Our dogs also prefer the R1T vs MY.

My Riv is now my daily driver. It's just more comfortable and drivable, IMHO. And spot on for the mileage accuracy claims by Rivian. Why can't Tesla just rate their vehicles the same way?

In case they didn’t already mention this in another comment, you don’t have to break the lane assist in the Tesla. You just have to signal first. When you signal, it lets you break the lane assist without having to muscle the steering wheel. Once in the new lane you double push the right stalk(or whatever the stalkless versions use) and you’re back in assist.

And don't forget that your time has value too. Your family and anyone else with you probably has time limits and constraints and also gives their time "value". On this trip he was basically "off-highway" getting fuel 1 hour for every 3 hours driven. A 30 hour trip took over 38 hours or an extra day. A extra day of vacation time has value to most people.

$109 that seems really high. A recent supercharger drive of 780 miles from VA to NJ and back with MYLR cost me about $85 dollars. I did charge at home before the trip and after arriving back home with about a 20% SOC. I think if I used superchargers for the initial charge and final charge it would have added another $60, my standard at home daily SOC limit is 50%. I use about 8-10% daily for commuting to work. An hour and a quarter charge at $109 just seems high to me. Is it because of higher rate charging at Tesla superchargers for non-Tesla vehicles? Love your humor! Thanks!

Keep in mind this is a truck without a tonneau cover, and he was going 80 in many parts of that video. Not a super efficient setup for an EV. And a similar sized truck probably gets in the 20-23 mpg range. Still tho, 19 cents per mile is freaking rough. That’s the equivalent of 3.80 per gallon for a 20 MPG truck. National average today is 3.3 per gallon regular. If that spikes up, then this starts to break even. Road tripping on public chargers are rough. Where EVs absolutely spank ICE cars is home charging, where some places can get into the 8 per kilowatt, and even at a crap efficiency of like 2 miles per KWh, that ends up being 4 cents per mile. Comparable truck would need to fill up at 80 cents a gallon to break even

Your 33mpg car is not directly comparable to a truck (which typically use about twice the amount of energy, gas or electric). In my experience, the cost of DCFC an EV on a long road trip is roughly equal to the cost of gasoline, for a similar-sized gasoline vehicle.

If 30% of people live in Apartments or other locations where they can’t have home charging we will need 3 times the number of gas pumps for Chargers. Not less. Thats assuming 30 minutes to fill up at a DCFC which is pretty optimistic. That’s why Chargers need to be a lot faster - I.e add 300 miles of charge in 10 minutes.

To be fair, a person needs to factor in the off/on highway portion of getting fuel. That is a 30 hour trip in a modern ICE based vehicle will all fuel stops and getting off/on the highway. Done it a few times in a variety of ICE based cars/trucks/vans. I live outside of Charlotte. I am guessing your trip took at least 38 hours (probably more). So roughly 75% of your time was "driving" and 25% of your time was off-highway getting to/from the station and actually re-fueling. That is what we tend to see either other EV's as well - roughly 1-hour off/on highway and refueling to every 3-hours of actual time moving towards your destination on the highway. A perfectly fine trip if you have an extra 8 hours (basically a day) for it.

I just bought a tesla and the auto drive is ok but FAR from worth paying for. I might occasionally use it if it were free but when my free trial ends next week it will be over until they make it more than a novelty. I'd use it if I were a Lyft driver.

Not a current EV owner but am vigorously reviewing and considering an EV purchase: Rivian or Tesla model Y. Your single day charging cost seem steep but I assume if I owned a Ford F150 or large suv I’d be paying $50+ at the pump for a couple of stops on similar road trip. Do feel the majority of your savings would be via home charging when making local trips?

As for model Y or R1T, I’ve owned both (currently own the Rivian). Although the software, in my opinion, isn’t as polished as the Tesla software, I prefer the Rivian in almost every way over the model Y. The build quality seems much better (also significantly more expensive) in the Rivian. The Rivian range is a number you can actually believe. Although I never got stranded in my Tesla due to the inaccurate listed range. Primarily due to the vast Tesla network. But with the ability for Rivian to use most V3 and V4 Tesla charges combined with the Rivian’s greater range, I find traveling in either to be perfectly fine. I would say try to drive both and see which you prefer.

Yes road trips there are still savings but you lose time. 95% of my driving is around town and you save time because you charge at home ad money because it's cheap to charge at home

Highways numbered even or odd. Except for that road through New Mexico that for decades was number 666. Yikes! We're driving on Rte 666? Is that hoodoo over there walking toward us? Wait, the road is rippling like the bridge over the Tacoma Narrows back in the day. Oh. No, it's just that Big Gulp I had in Gallup that the Shape Shifter laced with a little acid so no worries, just ride the roller coaster and we'll be ok once we get to um ... Utah?

$109 to charge to go 454 miles. If you pay $3.00 per gallon for gas that would be 12mpg.

Where I live gas is more like $3.50, and that’s about what I pay to fill my F-150. Day to day charging is cheaper and road trips are about the same, That works for me.

@@rickmcdonald7075 I was a little surprised at the 12 mpg equivalent, but he was driving 80 mph in a vehicle shaped like a brick. Rivian has a good looking product, I'm not totally out in getting one. We have family members who drive Tesla's. Driving from KCMO to Nashville in Model Y long range managed 60 mpg equivalent. Charging at home 120 mpg equivalent after 40,000 miles 115 mpg equivalent. Charging at home, super charging and a few times free charging. I would like to know his total cost in charging over the 10,000 miles.
