And yet there are others on here that won't own anything with a slide out--to each their own.

I recently saw pictures, or conceptual plans, for charging stations with layouts similar to gas stations. It would seem possible to charge an SUV and trailer at same time, or a 35-ft motorhome by taking two spots. Maybe charge MH and toad simultaneously.

I would not hold my breath for large electric Class A motorhomes for a few years. Smaller Class B van campers (and yes without slides) should become popular first. Electric and large seem somewhat opposite in basic ideology. Market must be fairly small for now.

Maybe when that extra 1,000 pounds of slide, and associated cost, could translate to extra 65 kWh of battery, and at least 50 miles of range, buyers will look at slides differently.

Kind of reminds me of gas stations now 3 pumps and I take up all three pumps so the motorhome doesn't block everything. This will happen with a tow vehicle and a trailer no matter how many charging stations they have. I do think people will use class b's for short camping trips when they turn electric. I feel they should start as hybrids otherwise they will be useless
