This is the second road trip we did with the Rivian R1T. We went to San Diego for a conference. On this trip, I charged on the EVGO network and not only is it more expensive but I had some issues and almost got into an accident. I realized many things on this trip and talk about it on the video.

There was even a cars and coffee event. It was fun and I learned more about charging outside of Tesla. It’s no fun but it is fairly available. This trip could have been done with one charging session but I had nothing else to do.
