My boat has an electric trolling motor on it and I charge it every night in my campsite after using it all day. When camping, I don't think that the electric car/truck would require the the 15 - 30 minute charging time. Whatever system was provided in a campground could easily be an over night type deal.
Comparing the charging requirements of an electric trolling motor to an EV is like comparing the fuel requirements of a lawn mower to a motorhome. Charging an EV on a standard 30A 120V RV site cannot be done overnight. A 50A 240V plug can do it, but as has been stated the electrical grid of most campgrounds can't handle it. If you are charging your EV, you will have nothing left to run your AC, microwave or anything else.
