An electric motor home capable of 57.5 mpg e or 569 watt hours per mile.
I'm not a fan of RVs in general, but especially not one with a 180 mile range. It probably suits some people fine though. I wonder how many amps most "RV" hookups are rated to? Putting 90 kWh back into the battery would take some time, but if the intention is to stay for more than a day then it shouldn't be a problem.

Might actually be a fun way for retired folks to travel the country, 150 miles at a time.
