Yes, it looks nice!

How's your range? I noticed very little loss to my average towing my airstream basecamp. 480w/m for me.

On a garage rooftop, overlooking North Austin. "Urban Trucking"

(Display said height was 5' 8" but I was very nervous passing under concrete overhangs labeled 6' 8"...)

And I forgot to take a picture of me towing a Home Depot trailer with a sod cutter in it.

That was a different rig, but mine is a 25’ Airstream International. I just haven’t had an enough miles for me to feel comfortable estimating what it will be. It was 780 for 27 miles with a mix of highway and street. But my range wasn’t locked in at, say 60mph. The speed factor is probably the biggest issue for Airstreams as a higher speed is going to have exponentially higher drag.

I’m taking a Boy Scout trailer out in a couple weeks that will be ~150 miles round trip and then I’m taking the Airstream for ~140-150 miles in early May. That’ll be a better comparison.

Sounds great! I myself will be towing our Airstream Basecamp to Montana in June. Estimated about 7 charges to Montana. Will see. so many factors to deal with. All I know is charging is fast and easy. Enjoy yourself.

My latest “truck things” was hooking up my house to the truck using the 240 in the bed. Very cool option in the event of a storm.

my latest truck thing was to take my m3p & 2500 truck for rides and wish they were one vehicle covered in stainless!

Maybe not a 'truck' thing but a 'Cybertruck' thing. Lost power after a storm. Started with refrigerators and freezers then on to media closet and computers. Can't wait until Power Share becomes a reality. Any bets on which will come first between FSD and Power Share?

Nice! I would love to know more about your Basecamp towing experience. I might be doing the same once I get my Cyberbeast.

My spouse always complains she can cut wood faster with an axe than our neighbor using one of those.

?

If I had to do it, I'd be getting a machine. Tho I'd want an electric.

Just what you and @Teslaman need, 22 ton capacity

This is on my shopping list. First I need to get 120v and 240v from service drop to a new sub-panel.

Why not the truck?

Polaris Ranger EV would fit on the path to the woodshed but not a car or truck. Unfortunately the electric Rangers are kinda expensive. I can buy a standard range Ford Lightning for less cost, due to $12,500 tax credits in Colorado. So the up to $600 credit for electric service panel upgrade is the most appealing path forward for this project.
