How many Lightnings have you seen in the wild?

[RTanton]

Living In So CA, we are close to Rivian's HQ and we have seen many...likely >50 with both R1T and R1S. We have seen only one other Lightning that was in a Costco parking lot.

Just charged at EA in Gainesville, FL
Black Pro with tinted windows a Kia and a Bolt. RT1 few and far between.
Maybe half a dozen Lightnings in Volusia County this year. Including a Pro used by Duke Energy at my favorite fast charger!

So far only one, and I've seen him twice on I-10 in Tucson exiting at Wilmot in the last 6 months.

I have been 1st day reservation holder and looking for them but have seen only two on the road. Many more on dealer lot. I have seen a lot more Rivians. I think this is not because there are more R1Ts on the road but because they are more visible. I have had only two groupies approach my truck in the past two months. Most think it is just another F150. I got a nasty look from some dude for parking in the low emission spot in front of the library.

Saw @VTbuckeye once or twice, maybe 3 others. A few Rivians, lots of Teslas.

Tons by me.. I see at least 10 everyday . I know three electricians that have them including my electrician who bought one after installing my FCSP . Another parent at my son’s elementary school has the exact same truck spec and color . It’s getting to the point where I’m going to end up trying to unlock the wrong one next time I park at the supermarket.

Three Lightnings on our campus, and I have yet to see a Rivian in San Antonio.

I'm in Tucson, but that wasn't me. Haven't been that way in years. I haven't seen any others in the NW part of town. Had someone in an explorer give me a thumbs up near the airport last week. Wife thought that was cool.

i've owned mine since June, saw my first last week. i'm averaging 1 every 8 months right now.

For reference, there are 4 Rivian's within 1/4 of my house and over 100 teslas in my town of 45,000 people. So we are far from EV adverse here.

 

[DroopyHippo]

About 3 or 4 which surprised me. Expected more of them in the Bay Area but I've seen more in The Central Valley.

I have seen 7 Lightnings in the wild so far, hundreds of Tesla's and no Rivian's as Rivian doesn't have a service centre in Canada yet.

I have seen three Lightnings in the wild in Eastern Iowa/Southern Minnesota. I've also seen a couple of Rivian R1Ts. Electric pickups are still pretty rare in this part of the world.

 

[Fordskeptic]

6-7 F150L sightings on the road, but think I've seen the same white and AMB ones more than once. Saw 2 Rivians & 1 hummer in my neighborhood, Long Island.

Also in the Cary-Lake Wheeler area, I've seen two prior to receiving mine. Both were dark grey.

Much of the sightings are ZEV states, and much of the non-sightings are in "what's an EV" states. There are 2022 mannequins sitting at dealerships in "what's an EV" states.
