Cybertruck emergency charges a Rivian R1S stranded on road trip

"My neighbor shared this picture with me. He got an emergency charge on his Rivian #R1S by a Tesla #cybertruck on a road trip with his family. He is too pissed off at the moment to tell me the story, but I can bet he was stranded by an unreliable, third party #CCS."

_He is too pissed off at the moment to tell me the story_

e: just noticed what looks like a tesla charger on the right? Maybe the charger was dead or didn't have the adapter?

This certainly will happen at some point, but whether this is legit or fabricated is hard to say (I lean toward the latter just due to the early timing).

I do plan on keeping a mobile charger and TeslaTap in my Cybertruck just in case I come across a stranded EV.

Tesla has not open up ALL the SCs to Rivians yet. Rivian is suppose to produce an adapter for us to use at the SCs mid 2024 or there abouts?

OMG LMAO, I trolled my wife so hard with this this morning!! Except just realized she trolled me way harder by actually already posessing her R1S and my CT is no where to be found!

I can't believe that a rivian gets stranded and one of the few Cybertrucks in existence just happen to be nearby and shows up to the rescue.

I'm sure this will happen in the future, by any EV's that are able to charge another. but this just seems fake to me. Cool, but fake.

CT is already impressive as it is. No need to do these cringiness of proving yourself. Good lord.

Well, people with Cybertrucks are going to be more likely to know people with Rivians, than vice versa.

So it's not that weird of a thing. Nor are malfunctioning CCS or destination chargers.
