The interesting piece of that Lightning video was the charge rate. It was plugged into the 50 amp service but the truck said it would take over 3 hrs to top it up from around 80%. Granted the top part of a charge is usually at a reduced rate but I wonder just what it could do overnight.
I’m guessing from the video that was a 28 ft Airstream. That combo with the small battery would really test your EV patience. I still like the truck.
They also touched on the problem with the powered Airstream, 50 amps into the truck leaves the 30 for charging but also powering the trailer. At the end of the day somebody is going to have to pay for all the changes to park infrastructure, would it be a 100.00 plus a night spot?
