Houston, I see them randomly here and there but never in concentration. Just drove 1400 miles from VA to Houston last week and didn't see a single one, other than 1 at a RAN charger in Baton Rogue.

I drive around Idaho and never see any for months. Then I drive into Ada County (Boise area) once and I see 2.

Than, my wife borrowed the truck for one day and she gets someone in Canyon Co (more rural) and she gets a fist pump from the driver! Luckyyyyy.

Minnesota's ritzy suburbs see a smattering of Rivians and Teslas. I see a couple R1S on the way to work, but R1Ts seem more rare.

What are the odds of 3 Rivians merging on a hwy from different directions at the same time!

I drove 20 miles today and saw at least 5 or 8.

Only the Gravity seems to be a rare EV yet around here. Have only seen two.

In a span of 2 days between Long Beach and San Francisco, we saw an R2, Polestar 3-row hatchback thing, Gravity wagon, and a Cybercab. The last one scared me and was driving aggressively on the highway, couldn't tell if it had a steering wheel, but a human was in front.

Depends where you are, a couple weeks ago in Boston there were 4 of us at the same intersection 1 parked and 3 moving. Unfortunately the S driver didn't wave.

I see between 5-7 Rivians on the road in the 3-mile drive to drop my kids off to school

Perplexingly, that daily number was dwarfed by....Fisker Oceans of all things when when I went to visit NYC a couple of weeks ago. Literally saw 10 oceans a day over 6 days. More Fiskers than Model 3/Ys combined. Did they have an auction in Manhattan for these things?
