"Imagine how peaceful camping would be without the loud gas-powered engines running. Electric vehicles are upgrading the camping experience as we know it. Not only are EVs silent, but they also offer unique advantages over gas-powered cars for camping."

There is a lot of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (F.U.D.) out there surrounding traveling with an EV and a camper. I highly recommend following these Instagram accounts to help ease your mind and show that not only is it possible, but it can be enjoyable.

Some of these folks have been traveling with their EV and travel trailer for years, and enjoying every minute of it. Follow along to get an inside view.

If you know of more folks traveling with EVs and trailers, feel free to drop them in the comments below.

It's 2023 🎉 The year we're set to pick up our gorgeous #airstreampotterybarn special edition! ❤️ That means we'll start stocking up on many of the supplies we've been adding to our Amazon list, inspired by so many seasoned Airstreamers and RVers.

Our list is available for you to use as well! Find it on our @linktr.ee (link in bio).

Rivian + Airstream = ❤️🙌🏼🔥

#Repost @rivianofficial

This one’s been a passion project for a while. We took a vintage Airstream, gave it a full electric overhaul, and now it’s finally road-ready.

We kept the soul of the original, but added everything it needed to carry the Rivian story and experience across the country — with the help of an R1T and its impressive 11,000-pound towing capacity, of course.

We can’t wait for you to come meet our shiny new friend this summer. First stop: X Games in Salt Lake City, June 27–29. And hey, if you see us on the road, give us a wave and tag us in a pic!

Special thanks to our partners! 👋
@mtnmodern.airstream on the upfit
@will_nashwood for the beautiful millwork
@everywhere for the soft goods
@jswec for the hand-painted details

Are you on ßIuesky? I'd love to connect! (LINK IN BIO)

There are lots of great interactions, and I'm loving the ability to view feeds of only the content you're interested in. You can easily, and fully, block people.

I've created a #Rivian feed and an #Aptera feed, along with various #photography feeds. You're welcome to contribute!

Just in case it needs to be said (I hope it doesn't): I used to support Tesla, but I will no longer support a company run by a Nazi supporter (even a wannabe).

Let's be clear; We vote with our wallets. If you buy Tesla, you buy Nazi.

And no, the very intentional, sharply performed Sieg Heil salute cannot be explained away as a "misinterpretation" or "He was sending his heart out to the crowd". I can think of a dozen other ways to symbolize sending your heart out. If he said "We're number one" and then flicked off Obama, would you say "He was showing the number 1"?

That, paired with all of the other things he is currently doing or supporting, displays an extremely tyrannical and prejudicial mindset, and the overt intention to force that upon the country.

I continue to be impressed with the production updates of the @aptera_motors solar-electric vehicle. I believe this will be a fantastic second vehicle for us (the first being a Rivian for towing).

Check out my LINK IN BIO to visit their website, and a $30 referral discount on the already low $100 reservation fee.

Up to 40 miles of free energy per day (depending on location); more than most folks drive in an average day.

They recently revealed their production-intent model at CES 2025. Photos of the actual vehicle are available on their website.

I'm very excited about the progress made by @aptera_motors. They are getting extremely close to the production of their $34,000 solar/electric vehicle. (LINK IN BIO)

This #EarthDay, I'm taking action to #EndPlastics with @earthdaynetwork. I signed the Global Plastics Treaty. We must continue working together to achieve a 60% reduction in plastic production by 2040 and eliminate single-use plastics by 2030!
