@mysteryboyee This doesn't even deserve a reply because you're clearly one of those incapable of understanding why we don't fall off from the bottom of a round planet. But here goes for those that do. The Tesla V3 handles have 2 sensors. One for the exterior to prevent it from getting too hot to handle (a lesson learned from V1's) and a second for the interior metal pins. If you only cooled the exterior, the interior sensor would still cut down the amperage (which causes the heat) if the interior of the handle gets too hot. So when you use an exterior cooling source that doesn't cool the interior, the interior sensor will still bring down the power. The only way the interior sensor won't bring the power down is ONLY if an exterior source is keeping BOTH the exterior AND the INTERIOR cooled below each of their heat thresholds. There is NO TRICKING THE SENSORS. The sensors don't have a heat sensor for themselves. They only measure the INTERIOR and exterior temperatures of the handle. If the interior of the handle is not kept cooled below its threshold, the INTERIOR sensor will bring down the power. So yes, a wet (preferably cold) rag helps protect the handle for as long as it can keep it below a certain temperature. As soon as that wet rag effectiveness is gone, the sensors bring down the amps. That's why it only helps for a few minutes.

What a great series! OOS Dave has a great attitude in the face of adversity. Just work the problem is always the best approach.

I don’t think I have ever watched a 4hr KZread video, but dammit I just did. Great video!

I'd love to see another race with a twist: no location sharing. It would be fascinating to see how the lack of information impacts decision-making and charging strategies.

Awesome trip and video. Goes to show that good infrastructure is just as important as battery capacity and charge curve. Seems like we are at a good point already, 40 hours coast to coast wouldnt be slow for a gas or diesel truck. Watched the whole series like a podcast driving through Germany in my 27kWh Mini Cooper SE :)

Quote of the video "The In-line Duramax Diesel is the jam"

While it was entertaining and informative, I think many of us would rather see a more realistic test using driving and charging practices that normal people are more likely to do. 1) route plan with no less than 10% state of charge on arrival. 2) No tricking the charging cable temperature sensors with wet towels. 3) Obey traffic laws, ie no intentional speeding or running stop signs. The Rivian had something like 40k miles on the odometer, while the rest of the trucks were all nearly new. Would be a more accurate test if all the trucks all had similar overall mileage/battery degradation. Regardless, It was great overall. Thanks for all of your efforts!

3:31:46 I think this was the big takeaway from this trip. Both the Cybertruck and the Silverado EV were letdown by their respective charging infrastructure. V3 Superchargers are just underpowered for the Cybertruck, and while Electrify America has the best coverage of any public charging provider, most of their chargers and even charging sites struggle to actually supply 500 A to 800 V EVs. E-GMP cars are really threading the needle because they can benefit from the 800 V chargers while not requiring them to provide more than 350 A.

The fact that the Cybertruck couldn't charge past 30% in order to maintain the same average charging speed as the Silverado EV maintains to ~60% put the Cybertruck at a serious disadvantage. That means the Cybertruck needs to make four times as many charging stops just to hope to keep up, and any charging past 30%-40% or reduced power from the charger pretty much negates that. If Team Silverado didn't have such a sub par experience with the public chargers themselves, they would have finished a couple hours ahead. So no, not "just a big battery."

@@ronin7645 Perhaps, but that would still leave it trailing the Silverado EV 3WT by a considerable margin. Even if, after the update, the Cybertruck could maintain the same average charging speed as the Silverado EV 3WT to 50% or even 60%, it would still need to make 50% more charging stops on a longer trip just to maintain parity. And that's the 3WT, not the big battery RST or 4WT, which average 250+ kW all the way to 70% to 80%. Also, as hobbled as the Silverado EV was by the public charging, the CT suffers even more on the Superchargers. Even with V3 operating at 100%, the CT can't charge at its fastest speeds, and it appears as though the CT will put a V3 cable into limp mode after only 10 minutes at full power. CT owners basically must use the public charging infrastructure if they hope to have any chance of reasonably matching the Silverado EV's charging and long trip capabilities. So again, at this point, it's more about these trucks exposing weaknesses in the charging infrastructure.

I’d be interested to see how much it cost in total for each truck how much electricity did each one use and average price/kwh

People who block charging spaces to protect charging speed are the same people that complain about ICE vehicles parking in charging spaces. Superchargeholes.

Another great weekend matinee! Thanks for the entertainment guys!

This series was amazing. I’m here for all of this!

I also found the semi-truck drafting to be dangerous and rude to the truck's driver.

So glad Kyle lost and love all of his excuses.

As a former 600rwhp 04 cobra owner and a current 24 model y performance owner I love this. The model Y feels like having a 500rwp cobra like when I had a ported blower. Not as strong as the Whipple 2.3 but easy as anything to drive. It's really amazing. Love it

Thanks guys. You're all crazy! 😉👍

Asking people to move so you get a better charge it’s fine because you’re asking them, moving the charging so it looks like it may not work is a little sketchy morally, but leave it how you did after putting it like that was rude, Even with the apology, I don’t drive electric, If that’s what you’re going to do to win race, it doesn’t deserve a win if that’s how you’re gonna play the game.

If the charger is full somebody will try it anyway so all this pearl clutching is laughable.

Agreed. As an EV user it actually pissed me off. You aren't trying to get home to family you are doing a race with friends in this.... Kinda upsetting.

The Cooling rag on the cable, I can only imagine thats a sensor on the charger that is being hoodwinked at some level, have to wonder if this is abusing the condition of the battery by giving it more charge than it actually wants at the temp is it as, compared to the temp it believes its at with the rag artificially cooling it.

That seems unlikely; the battery is a long way from where they were cooling things down with the rag. The cars have bunches of temp sensors in the battery packs themselves and are more than capable of asking the charger to slow down if things aren't going well.

I'm pretty sure the temperature sensor is for the cable itself to prevent overheating of the connector.

Ahhhh you’re stopping everywhere I stopped!!! 😂😂👌🏼

Lightning: "lets see what we're pulling here." And then apparently kidnapped by aliens cause no info follows.

I think this showed that EV road tripping has far fewer negatives that just a few years ago, but there is still tons of range anxiety/effort to plan charging stops. Hopefully in a few years with the continued improvements to to charging infrastructure, a few years from now this won’t be a big deal to cross country an Ev.

Normal people doing a road trip aren't trying to run their battery to 0 and plan their charging around actual breaks. By the end of the decade all of these DC fast chargers are going to be 350kw chargers and should have credit card terminals hopefully.

Damn the editing is on point, videos getting better and better Kyle, awesome to see! Great content.

Keep these videos coming! I was glued!

Absolutely Awesome….never seen anything on YT to match this epic. Thanks guys!

4 hour video, crazy. I'm watching it (background) while I do some paperwork. Before I forget, will you tally how much the cost per truck to go on this long trip? and cost per kWh, and miles per kWh?

48 cents a kwh @Seguin is not cheaper than gas. That is insane pricing especially at the time of nigh and time of the year.

It is high. Though, the total cost isn't THAT far off between filling a tank of gas on the 1500 wt vs doing the battery on an ev 4wt

Absolutely LOVED this whole series!

Need a Rivian owner/driver to do this again and defend Rivian’s honor. 😊

Goodness, four hours!

Now put any other team in the Cybertruck and see how it shifts the results

Fantastic video. I really enjoyed it although it's testing things that I'll never been able to afford (nor the Cybertruck will ever come to Europe apparently). I liked the adventure and may have only wished more images of beautiful American landscapes. Well done: really entertaining.
