Ask HN: Electric RV Options?
5 by Mockapapella | 7 comments on Hacker News.
This won't be taking place for quite some time (at least a year out, maybe more), but I would like to travel the US by RV for 6-12 months. Given the rising gas prices, I was wondering whether there are any options for electric RVs that I can buy. I've seen a couple[1] of options that have been announced, but they seem to suffer from the same issue that many other EV options have in being years out from the announcement and/or concepts. I've looked into getting an electric vehicle (like a Rivian or F-150 lightning) and towing behind a camper trailer, which isn't a bad option per-se, but I'm just not sure that's the best option. It seems to me that the surface area on an RV is a wonderful opportunity for solar panels which is something that most EVs don't really have. Any and all thoughts would be appreciated. 1. https://ift.tt/jZd4fUi
