I drove a low boy for years and yep, chaining up takes the most time, the 5th wheel was easy, back under, attach air lines and 7 pin, and go. (hydraulic 5th) Broke my hand one time when a binder snapped back, got lazy and didn't use my heavy gloves, but I did always use safety straps on the...

Yep, diesel used to be cheeper than gas, until all of the diesel cars & pickups came out and the oil companies decided they could make more money by jacking up the price.

WOW! my new Ford Ranger registration was $450, and USAA ins was $600, that must be some large truck!

UH.... that's what I said, the harvester IS the hybrid version.

Backwards, the Harvester adds 350 miles to a EV range of 150 for a 500 mile total.

One of the main reasons I wanted the Harvester was range towing a 5K lb TT to the desert, so if this isn't changed by launch time I will have to look elsewhere, Ramcharger? Perhaps he just mis-spoke and it will be corrected, I need at least 7K towing.

I have been looking at the AE1 Lightship for switching to a TT after I get my Scout, what a combo that would be!!

I read somewhere it was about 130, but thought that was to large, to maintain full capabilities and roadability as stated it would have to be at least 80KW

The Harvester genset head will be in the 100-130KW range, A generator that size will need it's own trailer to haul. A 10K genset weighing in @ around 150-200 lbs will be a chore to lift, but would get you charged up in a couple hours. But it would use as much gas as the Harvester, take up bed...

A one time $1k road tax for EV's is fair as far as I am concerned, seeing the Fed's won't be getting gas taxes from me. California is going to a Per Mile charge for road Tax, connected tech can report your mileage, cars without the tech will be charged a flat yearly fee.

Won't happen, once tariffs get high enough people will just stop buying anything except for necessities, which will reduce sales tax income, on top of no income tax, and just how do you fund a trillion dollar government without income tax? Some states do it but have very high property and sales...

My Class A is 26', perfect size for 2/3, we have taken it coast to coast twice, northern and gulf routes. When I get the Scout I will sell it and get a 26'TT.

Most panels output 18-27 VDC which is fed to a Solar Converter, this drops it to either 12/24 VDC at a higher amperage for battery charging. My converter has a lithium profile which outputs 14.6 volts to get them to 100% SOC. This powers my entire RV via a 3KW PSW Inverter, even the AC (but you...

I am sure they have prepared for this....

If these money mongers prevail I will be out, I never want to ever deal with a dealer again, Thank goodness California allows DTC sales.

I have 400AH of Lithium batteries along with 800 watts of solar on the RV roof. :)

I lived in Alaska for 3 years, they have no income tax and only a combined 1.8% state and local sales tax. They share the income from Oil tax placed on oil companies with legal residents on a yearly basis. This year the one time rebate was about $1700 per resident over 18, not enough to live on...

Not sure where you're getting your info but according to US Energy Info Administration. https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61545

I hate to point this out, but the US oil industry is pumping more oil than any other country, our storage and refinery capacity is maxed out, and building a new one or expanding into new fields will take several years and billions of dollars. Plus we are exporting west Texas crude overseas. The...

That could be good or bad, we get 60% of our imported oil from Canada, plus the Northeast gets a lot of electricity from them, if he includes oil then prices will go up.
