This is happening now! - First towing trip

[mudito]

First charging stop and I had to unhook already. I'll avoid downtown city areas for now on... I have like 700 more miles to go!

I towed that much weight in the middle of winter and got 160 miles per charge roughly.

I'm getting about the same. So far 1.46 mi/kWh in the first 205 miles (179mi in a full charge)

Not sure of your route into MN but if you are coming thru Worthington MN on I90 the EA station is in the process of getting new units put in. The old ones and new ones are sitting off to the side with no activity for probably 10 days or so. There is a Tesla charger in the Hyvee parking lot but would be more difficult with a trailer

Thanks! So far I had to unhook once only. Funny enough I'm on a RAN in Wichita, KS right now with its only Trailer friendly charger in Red... So I'm trying to be a nice neighbor here but still I'm blocking 1/3 of a parking lot

Too bad it doesn't look like the Ford has a tow hitch. It would be nice to have the option of swapping places when you don't feel like charging anymore. a plug in hybrid.

I guess you could still be a hybrid if you plug an inverter into the Ford's 12v outlet and run an extension cord up to the Rivian.

Man do I miss my RS sometimes.

Me too! I had a 2016 for 5+ years, so many good times with autocross, track days and lots of backroad blasts. I catch myself checking out used listings with some regularity.

Not bad, what speed are you running?
(assuming Quad Large Gen 1?)

After one day and 11 hours of driving I have more data.

At 61mph I got anywhere from 1.4 to 1.5mi/kWh
At 65mph - 1.3 to 1.4
At 71mph 1.2-1.3
At 75mph 1.0-1.2
