I have an ideal 25 fit RV but I'm anticipating range and charging stations will be an issue since we prefer public campsites off the beaten tracks.
But yes, a Semi converted into motorhome is way cool.

Quote:Take a tour of this amazing custom 5th wheel rv made by Spacecraft Manufacturing in Concordia Missouri. Gregg from RVHaulers heard about this stunning unit, and couldn’t pass up the opportunity to have Marsha, the president of Spacecraft show us this coach.
These 57 foot custom coaches start at $186,000. That is the price for a nicely equipped unit. The price can increase as you add customizations and unique features.

It sure would once you fork out anywhere from $450,000.00 to
$1,000,000.00 for the 5th wheel, another $200,000.00 + for the Tesla, and who knows how much for the Megapack. I am sure there is a huge market out there for such a rig.
All to realize the rig would not fit into many campsites if you could even negotiate the roads to get into the places to begin with, taking into account the size of the thing and road weight limits. It possibly would work well for visits to Fantasy Island Campland or Unicorn National Park.
I have a burn barrel in my yard.

I could see the technology easily scaled up to assist the Semi or increase fuel efficiency and power of the old diesel trucks.
Possibilities are endless.

As long as you're towing one of the two models / floorplans of Airstreams that fall within the Plaids capacity and not some non available Unicorn concept, sort of like the Tesla Semi. It could handle the Basecamp or Bambi 16, both of which are single axle and have minimal cargo capacity so no adding any batteries to those, you'll certainly make it up the hills. They parked it in front of an Airstream that appears to be neither. That's all before you deal with its 333 mile range which when towing is probably 150 or less if it's all uphill both ways to and from the campground.
