Vegas to Upstate NY

[Niftly3d]

I'm thinking about throwing the dog in the car and driving to the 1000 Islands in Alexandria Bay, NY. Roughly 2700 miles. The longest trip I've done with the Rivian is about 500 miles. Any advice? (other than fly and all the other smart ass comments ... seriously asking)

Just drive. Rivian will get you there with ease. Try to see something interesting every day.

Use ABRP.

I’ve done several long trips, just got back from a 6900 mile trip last week in my R1S from CA->FL->MA->CA

My suggestion is use ABRP (A Better Route Planner) to get your route. When you get to the charging stops it calls out put the address of the next charging stops in the Rivian navigation. It will tell you when you are good to go, works great for me. I use the same method in my Tesla.

Trip will be awesome, have a great time.

I still prefer the abundance of user-selectable charging options in PlugShare.

Carry both AC and DC adapters suitable for your Rivian's charge port.

I agree @Niftly3d is likely to have an awesome trip. Best wishes!
