Feels like the Tesla is the weird part of this. I suppose that having an electric vehicle was important for philosophical reasons, or he just thought they were cool, but they aren't the most practical choice. Today, there would be a few more options for a vehicle you'd want to live out of even with the restriction that it had to be all-electric. The E-Transit, or even the F-150 Lightning come to mind, but I bet there are even better ones.

Agreed. It's weird to live this way with a Tesla and a storage trailer and then having to charge every 60 miles and shower at gyms. There are plenty of vehicles that are specifically built (or can be modified) for this lifestyle.

This whole part of it made it seem like a parody to me. It just seemed increasingly farcical -- the desk in the forest? attempting to build a desk setup right on the tow bar? I'm still chuckling. I know it's not a joke but it edges so close to parody I can't help laughing.

F-150 Lightning is 3 fold worse pulling a trailer, which is still really bad (edited)

Seems like it's almost twice as good, given the weight estimates I see in this thread (~115 vs. ~60 miles)

But I was really talking about the car camping phase of his experiment—the part where he's living out of his car, not the towing part. I didn't make that clear enough in my comment.

I wouldn't want to sit and charge every 115 miles any more than 60, both are not good.
