Never had to stop for charging more than once per trip, and never for more than 10 minutes. Literally no time lost, since someone in the car always needed the restroom anyway. But non-Tesla chargers cannot be trusted to exist where needed, can't be trusted to work when they do exist, can't be trusted to charge fast enough when they do work, and are often too expensive, either because the charge for electricity is too high or the vehicle is inefficient or both.

Nevermind if it was a destination with a time constraint. A gas vehicle would have taken 34 hours to complete that round trip, whereas this took a full extra 24 hours of being in the car, assuming you never slept. Easily added an extra 2-3 days to the trip, which can equate to lost vacation time at best, and at worst, and extra few days of lost income for the average person.

The question is why so many Rivian owners are already selling their trucks to annoying dealerships rather than on their own. Dealerships always offer less for vehicles than direct sales to the public. A vehicle like this is uncommon and in high demand, so it seems strange to see this happening. Makes me wonder if the dealership bought the Rivian with the plan to sell immediately with a high markup from the purchase price.
