I was told by the dealer when I bought the new popup that the battery charges via the car 7 pin connector during the ride out but didn't seem to get an ample charge in the 1 1/2hr ride.
This is true, however not all vehicles come properly equipped from the factory. Some trucks need a fuse for the charging to take place, knowing what you have to tow might help or you can test the 7pin connector yourself. You can check in your glove box to see if the fuse was included from the factory, then just needs to be installed.
