Not a truck ... problems with real world electric car towing
I find this series by “The Fast Lane Car” on electric car towing interesting. We’ve had a few discussions about electric vehicles including trucks. They mention some of the issues to overcome in the video and are driving from Boulder to Portland which is about 1100 miles. On this trip, the calculated that it requires 7 hrs for just the charging which works out to 30%. They also removed the rooftop tent for the trailer because they found that it resulted in about a 25% increase in power usage.
Anyway, good stuff to imagine what kinds of problems someone carrying a truck camper with a electric truck might have to overcome.
