- Join along the adventure as Hannah and I take my new 2023 Rivian R1S up Highway 395 to Mammoth Mountain. We explore geo thermal pools, dip in the hot springs and enjoy a beautiful day of spring snowboarding. I'll show you how this new car plays a role in the adventure.

Rivian is such a nice car! Premium USA car.
Respect from The Netherlands.
So cool! It's my dream to take a Rivian off-roading!
Very cool... I can't wait to take my R1T on an over night camping trip. big project is to build a pop camper on the back of the Rivian.
Amazing!
I own a R1S too.. excellent video and editing ! keep it coming !
Cool vid. I enjoyed watching
Nice! 395 eastern Sierra highway is a hidden treasure, even for most Californians!
Great bondock stop.. a GORGEOUS other spot is Alabama Hills (BLM land) near Lone Pine, amazing views, great food, great Western Movie Museum right at the gateway to Mt Whitney portal rd (and Tesla superchargers, sorry you can't use those yet...) you can camp right next to movie shot locations from westerns and scifi movies! (Iron Man, Tremors etc)
Great stuff! I missed going to the hot springs, will have to visit next time. Wanted to see Postpiles Natl Monument west of Mammoth, but it was snowed in. Glad we also saw Manazanar NM along 395 on the way to Mammoth, stark but sad historical beauty. Convict Lake and June etc other lakes are also not to miss for scenery, snow and shine!
I’ve had our R1S on those same roads!
It's a beautiful area! I've seen some of your videos... great stuff! Thanks for the comment!
@@TylerTownsendTravelhey bro that looks awesome. Im wondering do you think a 6’7” person could sleep in that? The specs I saw said 81” long.. thanks for the video man!
@@vin3421 I think so, I’m 6’0” with plenty of room to spare. I have another video called Camp Mode that details the sleeping ability a bit better.
@@TylerTownsendTravel I will check it out thanks. Yeah 81” is 6’9” so it miiight be just long enough.
Leveling the car is such a cool feature ! Could just put your snowboard under the car / next to it if you’re isolated since nobody would likely take it
Looking at your Rivian, I want to buy it. But not in Korea. Rivian is optimized for car camping.
Nice to meet you,excellent video-wok. Tyler, 💪
we are waiting for our R1S by the end of year .. good video and love the info.. 22" look great .. do you think of going to 20" off road rims and tires in the future?
When i get rid of my cadillac ct6 I'm buying this.
Uh oh, you called them superchargers! Rivian is going to repo their vehicle 😂
Love the SUV Rivian!
🤫🤣🤣
Nice video. Looked like a fun trip. So, how was the car camping in the R1S? Comfortable and warm enough? Any need for window shades?
It went pretty good! Definitely plenty of room and great having a flat surface. I wasn’t sure how much range would be lost by running the climate at night so I had it off but warmed up the car sometime during the night when it got cold. I think I’ll run a test to see how much battery is lost from the climate when I am closer to a charging source. We had some driving to do the next day before we were going to return to Bishop to charge and I didn’t want to run out. Turns out we had plenty after all. I have a windshield shade that I used more so for privacy. I haven’t tried window shades for warmth yet.
@@TylerTownsendTravel Sounds like it worked out very nicely. I read another review by an owner who ran the climate all night and lost a fairly reasonable percentage of battery (although I don't recall the exact number.) Might have been in the 10-20% range. In any case, it seems do-able for colder camping scenarios. Thanks for the good review. I enjoyed seeing your white S (my config as well.)
Thanks for putting this video together!
How long would you reckon the sleeping area is behind the front seats? I'm pretty tall and hoping I could fit.
I’m 6’0” with plenty of room to spare, so even 6’6” would probably be ok. I don’t have an exact measurement for you but could measure tomorrow if you can’t find the dimensions online.
@@TylerTownsendTravel Thanks for the reply; I've searched high and low and have yet to find it. I'll have another go tonight in case.
Great video. Is there a way to make the sound volume consistent? The music was way louder. Can't wait to road trip in our R1S to these places!
Thanks for the feedback… I’ll try and improve the audio in future videos. May I ask what kind of device you were viewing on?
@@TylerTownsendTravel on my MacBook Air with Bluetooth connected speakers.
agreed the music level jumps were very jarring to me too. viewing on PC w/ surround speakers
Where did you camp? Gonna drive up mine in a few days
There are a ton of options… we stayed near the hot springs… you can search for Hot Creek and stay near there. If you want to be closer to Mammoth, there are plenty of great spots along the Mammoth Scenic Loop.
After bishop, where did you charge your R1S?
Back in Bishop on the way back. We still had 40% battery after driving a bit around Mammoth and to and from the Hot Springs.
And did you charge 100% at bishop before going to mammoth? If yes that means you spent about 60% in mammoth?
@@HarshPatel-fo1xk yep, that’s about right. We charged to 95% in Bishop. Drove to the Resort, then the scenic loop to 395, then down the 395 and back to Mammoth Brewing Company, then drove to Hot Creek and Wild Willys where we slept. Then back up to the resort in the morning and then back down to Bishop where we had 40% left.
If you can afford a Rivian, surely you can afford a roof tent?
I’m not totally opposed to the idea of a rooftop tent, but I can think of a few reasons I find it less desirable: losing range (aerodynamics), less stealthy (maybe I just want to sleep a few hours at a trailhead before I start a hike), and finally the climate control aspect of Camp Mode which has been very comfortable when I’ve used it and used surprisingly less battery than I thought it would.
Do your subs a favor and never say the word "Alexa" out loud ;)
I was wondering how that would play out 😬☺️
I will feel comfortable when such big EV suv has at least 450+ miles range.
Yea? How many days a week do you drive for 7 hours? And how often without stopping for lunch in that time.
99% of gasoline cars can’t drive that far on a tank of gas.
@@jjmm2928 I prefer stopping once for gasoline to travel 450 miles rather than stopping more than once for charging to cover same distance. Time is valuable, isn't it?
