EVsnail any luck? your rear outlet with a 12v 30A fuse ...12V x 30A = 360W total. Even Assuming 14.4 volts just a bit higher... still Might not a very warm seat heater.

With Covid-19 we are seeing a huge uptick in travel trailer and RV sales. I went to the Airstream dealership in Huntington Beach, California and they were closed for covid-19 for a few months. Within days of reopening, they sold out of 95% of their inventory and presold a bunch more. Biggest...

This is the nicest thing I think we could tow with model X. But the range likely be very curtailed like so many boxy things. It is however possible to design a slippery Brick...might be wired for 230 three phase. Apparently they claim it is 4 season and the floor looks well insulated...

Camp 365 I said , to my GF it doesn't have any furniture, you could get inflatable furniture. My GF jokingly said , "If you got that you may as well get yourself an inflatable girlfriend to go with your inflatable furniture. Kinda a camper for losers." and further, "What do they do to sleep...

Other threads exist along some similar lines. I just want to out some of the things I want in one thread. Tesla Powered Trailer Here are the Airstream and other companies powered trailers.

The hidden shower. This link : Start at 8:45 I like that its is not a shower stall and is just an overhead cabinet and counter space. However. I would have changed out some materials. Probably used some sailboard Starboard material that won't be affected by moisture. I would have side...

I also feel it might be possible to make an Expanding travel trailer that has less insulation when expanded , and more multiple layers of insulation when compacted...ie thicker walls. And of course in Winter its more efficient to heat a smaller enclosed volume with less surface area- volume...

You have to expand the above quote as I put some replies in that quote- It won't let me edit this.

Wooter thanks for replying, any insight you have negative or positive is valuable. ---> designing my own trailer is the PRIMARY focus of this thread. I don't believe I could design my own battery pack to outdo Teslas battery pack. I also don't think it would be realistic to think with limited...

I think run flat tires with TPMS would be important for me (no idea if they are applicable to trailers) Double Axles or Triple Axles are just a bit more insurance. Unlike so many other people driving across straight roads, I'm more often than not on twisting winding slick roads and of course a...

Yes aftermarket portable TPMS for me would be a must. But sometimes you could be in a position where you can't pull over. Worst case scenario would be going fast in a tunnel with traffic. Well maybe yet another solution would be a second set of wheels and axles (Perhaps smaller if weight...

Does anyone know the curb weight for a naked skateboard chassis for either MX or MS? Given the wheelbase a trailer of length of 22'-26' is the likely length. Most of the weight would be stored low in the camper to keep with good handling. If it would be possible with steering geometry and...

I bought MX with the idea of seeing the world. At the time of purchase sales associates at Fashion Island in Newport Beach CA said I would be able to put my MX in a shipping container and do the same with a travel trailer and tour Europe using my lifetime free supercharging. As a test I've...

My concern with the Bambi is the single axle and the effects of a blow out resulting in a Bambi on its side flopping around behind a Model X. Perhaps if they had run flat tires and TPMS for the trailer and with alarms in Model X otherwise I would rather see multiple axles

Well this thread is dashing my hopes. I have a 2017 MX 90d with the 70 amp 240 volt AC charger option. When I bought the car I spoke to numerous sales associates in the Tesla Fashion Island Store in Newport Beach CA about my intent to put my car in a shipping container and go on a European...
