Rivian R1S-Casita Camper Pickup-Episode 5 Wichita Mountains NWR
มุมมอง 176วันที่ผ่านมา
Our first real camping since picking up the Casita, having the modifications performed and having some minor issues resolved by Casita. Whistlewind Ranch, then on to Oklahoma and the Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge. Wikipedia does not have a page on Holy City of Wichitas, so I used another source for reference.

      The Rivian has the max pack and is rated for 400 miles versus the Lightning's 320 mile rating. Mrs. E-Hermes is more comfortable in the Rivian's front seat. However, in a few weeks we are taking our granddaughter camping and we will be taking the Lightning on that trip.

    My wife and I bought a used 2023 Independence Deluxe last December from some wonderful folks 4 hours away. When we went down to look at it, we were sold. But my Nissan Frontier didn't have a proper hitch. We drove home. After getting the proper hitch installed, we went back down to pick up our Casita, only to discover that my Frontier also didn't have a brake controller or a 7 pin. We took it anyway. We drove 4 hours on I-55 at night in the rain with no lights for the trailer. Not one of my most shining moments! I white-knuckled it the whole way home without incident. It looks like some of us have a bit of a rocky start to our Casita life! We'll be taking our out for our 10th weekend camping trip this coming Friday! I like your improvements. I may do the same! Good luck!

    The problem is that these companies know that maintaining a reliable charging network is costly. This includes setup, maintenance, and software security. Tesla did something that no other car manufacturer has done and that is establish a network with regular maintenance. These auto makers do not want to foot the bill on this so they rely on other networks which is horrible for the consumer.

    I like this A2Z J3400 adapter, and will likely purchase one… IF my Hyundai is ever given the authorization and software to plug in at Superchargers. Since E'loon has FIRED the Supercharger team, I am willing to wager that those plans have now been delayed -if not betrayed completely. Frankly, I'm starting to think that automakers should just decide to stick with CCS1, and the SEC needs to dictate to Tesla that they have to switch out their Superchargers to use it with with longer cables -just like happened in Europe with the CCS2. Yes, CCS plugs are more cumbersome than NACS, but they work just fine, and I opine that E'loon doesn't deserve the charging profits at this point.
