There will be enough Lightnings with 240V on the road to get R1Ts to the nearest DCFCThere's one thing missing *and yes, you can take this idea and run with it* but -
An EV "rescue" vehicle needs to have a HUGE bank of batteries in the back (think something like 4-5 powerwall, yes, I've checked the weight and throughput) so that it can deliver a huge push of juice quickly (ie miles per minute) so that it can recharge a stranded EV. Yes, it could draw from the Rivians own battery, but with a payload of 1700lbs, it wouldn't need to if it had a battery bank in the back.
I've already thought about it because we often see ICE cars run out of juice on the bridges in Seattle (no clue WHY but they always seem to die in the middle of the bridge). Soon comes 2030 (no ICE in WA state) and = Imagine the "Rescue Rivian" pulling up, juicing up the dead EV in minutes, and getting them out of the way.
