    Alyssa is all about great ideas on this trip 1. Why don’t we get food before we charge the car and then eat it while charging! 2. Let’s get a Rivian R1S
  • @NoHarmDunn
    Missed the Alyssa commentary. She is for sure your hidden gem for the content. Just having an other perspective goes a long way and her’s is great.
  • @LCCB
    Do more old school roadtrips together like this video. What made me interested in your channel back in the day. New stuff is interesting, but sometimes exploring with a fun EV is a great escape. And now I want to go to Zion 😂

    Can you imagine wearing a hoodie in 108 degrees? Lol
  • @logan594
    Wearing a hoodie mid summer in the desert kinda funny.
  • @ALRinaldi
    Love the classic OOS road trips! Keep doing em please, and as long as possible too!
  • @TylerPoppe
    Why does this video make me want a Rivian more than any review or flashy highlight video haha.Also, seems like charging stations should be covered.
  • @lh2338
    Re: Kyle's surprise at the price of EV charging in CA--No, driving an ICE car is not cheaper. It would cost well over $110 to fill up an equivalent 7-seat SUV. Average price/gallon ~$5.

    It was fun to watch you kids on another roadtrip, it had been a while! The banter made my day.
  • @georgegmc6215
    Kyle and Alysa, great to see you on another long road trip! … George 😀👍👍😀
  • If you open the Tesla app at the location, select the charger you will be charging at, then as soon as you plug it into your Rivian start the charging session on the Tesla app and it will bypass the handshake with Rivian and bill directly from Tesla and apply your discounted rate if you purchased their monthly pass. It has worked flawlessly for me so far.

    108 F outside but you're wearing a hoodie! :face-blue-smiling:

    I had the pleasure(?) of rolling up on a dead RAN site post thunderstorms once with techs on site and got to be the tester (they were overjoyed given I had a low SoC and could hit 220kw). They told me they do bring online modules as it ramps, it takes longer when they haven't been used for a while. The last one kicks in around 194kw and pushes it over 200kw. Techs were super nice and was definitely happy to see them when I rolled up with 12% and saw the entire thing red lol
  • @jrbabcock
    Glad to see you take off the hoodie & smell the roses. You scored solid gold with Alyssa as your co-pilot! Enjoy her and your time together as much as possible.
  • @BMWI35433
    Love you two on road trips! These videos are classic!
  • @Geckogold
    Man, this video brings back memories of your summer 2020 trip, minus the pups. It was fun driving around new areas and just seeing all these cool places most of us don't normally see.
  • I love these long videos because I can throw them on while working or doing chores. Keep them coming!
