I have a Gulfstream Conquest Super-C. This is built on a Chevrolet Kodiak chassis. One advantage I see is that unlike the van-based Class C, the front wheels are set out at full track width. There driveline is the 8.1 gasoline engine and Allison 4-speed automatic, just like my 2004 3/4-ton Suburban. -

Kirk the prices were in the videos for both with or without motors and just battery packs to run the systems. No generators no noise either and 25% battery charging on sunny days for the Pebble Flow's built in solar roof.. Airstream partnered with Porsche on a battery powered Trailer/RV trailer. NO prices yet However Pricey is in the eye of the beholder. Just for comparison Airstream trailers without the batteries and with old fashioned propane and other systems identical to all the rest cost $100k and up. Flying Cloud® 28RB Starting at $117,500 The 28 foot Pebble flow with all the advanced systems starts at about the same and the larger L1 is just a bit higher. But for about $20k more motors can be added for all shown in the videos. When you find that Airstream price with Batteries and self-propelled versions I'd be interested in seeing that. Here is their page. https://www.airstream.com/configurator/tt/ BTW I just did an about face on the Ford EV Lightning. I test drove one last Friday and was impressed. the extended range XLT with everything we want is $52k before TT&L He brought it to our home to see if it could fit in the garage and no way with this house. With the hail here annually our cars are in the garage. So we are pricing Carport designs and checking the permitting and if allowed. We pretty much wanted to move anyway to a Ranch with no stairs and a much bigger garage, three car this time. -
Same here Glenn. Aerodynamic does look different than a flat front acting like a sail. Saves some fuel or battery charge depending on the tow Vehicle.. I like the complete autonomy to boondock for up to seven days using heat or A/C, inductive cook top, coffeemaker, al at once without carrying any propane, or generators. I really liked the office desk in the Pebble Flow prototype that turns into a Murphy bed with no hassle. no curtains with glass that goes opaque at a touch of a switch. All for the price of a top tier Airstream trailer. I may take several years but with or without motors the modern appliance designs and forward thinking use of solar and batteries is amazing Especially the motors handling braking without brake controllers, and taking care of sway and braking on a hill within the motors themselves. It's all pretty new to me. I had to add a transfer flow diesel tank in the bed of my Ram 1 ton long bed dually to get the original range off load when towing. No more backing in and how about that magic hitch automatic hitching up?? 😮👍😉
