~90 locations?
- bdcravens 2y agoYeah I've just never seen one, and don't have a Rivian, so it never came across the media I consume. I'm in the Houston area, and they only have 3 in Texas, none of which are near me. Only one is on a freeway that I may likely encounter.
- Rebelgecko 2y agoThey're more common further west, especially around national parks and other outdoorsy areas
- mikeryan 2y agoI've got a Rivian and have only used their chargers on a road trip to Whistler from the Bay Area. One was in Shasta behind a little hotel—you'd not see it if you weren't looking for it. The other was at a Homewood Suites lot somewhere in Southern Oregon. Unsurprisingly, these were back-to-back stops. So, I think they were specifically put there to help bridge a gap between Northern CA and Southern OR.
- recursive 2y agoIf you were going to use it, your car's navigation would probably route you there, and you wouldn't need to look for it. FWIW.
- mikeryan 2y agoAgreed. That comment was just a response to the parent who commented that they hadn't seen RAN chargers often. Of note, right by the Shasta station was a large Supercharger bank, so the planning for this was probably done before the Rivian deal to use Tesla chargers and the free adapter program Rivian implemented. They may have kept that one anyway, considering the Shasta Area is probably underserved and fits Rivian's target market for their stations ("adventure" areas)

- insane_dreamer 2y agoThe key is that they are mostly in remote areas, not the cities.
