    • Depends on your conservation efforts and how many people you have. In my last van I had 40 gallons fresh and 20 each black and gray and I could easily go a week or more. I also had 400 watts solar and 400 amp hours with everything being electric except for the diesel furnace. I never came close to using all my fresh water before I found a dump because I got nervous since my sensors did not work.  Linda
    • Sorry to hear Pam is not doing well. I hope you guys are set now. Yes we want to get another truck and drove the Ford F-150 Lightning XLT extended range and it is awesome! We can't fit it in our too short garage. They brought one to our house and Lynn drove it after I did at the dealership. She is as enthusiastic as I am and wants to move and get one so we don't get to be your age with four flights of stairs in the house like we have now counting the basement stairs.
    • YW Ray. Pretty significant improvement over the old systems in my book too.
    • They obviously have never boondocked much. 7 days on the tankage they have is not going to happen. One of them uses a combined black and grey tank and neither one carrys much in the way of fresh water.
    • I thought it was interesting that they said something about dry camping for 7 days - it almost sounds like the trailer will use more power than the solar can produce.  I’d either want more solar so I could dry camp indefinitely (as far as power goes) or have something that runs on propane. Having a trailer with its own propulsion makes sense if you have a TV that’s undersized power-wise.  However, I noticed in one of the videos how much the back end of the TV squatted when the tongue dropped onto it - so what would be the tongue weight?  Would it overload the rear axle of the TV?  Can you use a WDH? I’ll always cheer on these innovative trailers and their technology - my ideal would be to be totally energy independent (both vehicle and RV) and a full-timer.  Not sure I’ll see that in my lifetime.
