Hi. Just FYI, since you shot your footage, the Firebaugh RAN has been turned on and open for use. Would like to see more of your charging experiences on your trips. Trials and tribulations. Looks like it was a nice trip.
Yea I had seen that! It’s honestly a great location right off I-5. I have a few more charging experiences and stops in some of my other videos if you’re interested!
@@AmpdAdventures Hi. I have a R1S and have been on many road trips myself -- in fact to most of the places you've visited and filmed. 😁😁😂😂But I'm always interested in watching other EV drivers' -- especially Rivian owners -- charging experiences on their road trips. We'll have it better into the future with NACS adaptors for Tesla Superchargers but for the past and present, we only have DCFC. It's always such a hit or miss with DCFC stations. RAN networks are pretty good. But we have so few of them around. My wife and I actually very recently went on a 2 week trip starting out from Greater Sac area up along the coast of CA -- Redwood country -- then up OR and WA then came back same way. I went on a hunt to checkout various RANs along the route. They were all great. Not crowded like they would be in the Bay Area -- 😁😁 -- but interestingly enough, 3 of 6 were out of service at Coos Bay, OR. That was surprising. Anyway, it's up to you as the content creator how you want to shape your YT Channel and what content you want to showcase. I'll just say that for me, when I watch videos on EV roadtrips, I'm definitely interested in the charging sessions and experiences -- good or bad -- with the charging sessions. 🙏🙏 Safe travels
Agree 100% that having the ability to charge at Tesla stations will be a game changer for a lot. I’m hoping my adapter comes soon as I’m taking a trip to Sedona for the Overland Expo. Also with Rivian’s new software update with the charging grades hoping we all don’t run into bad charging in the future.
