The only first generation EV I would recommend is a Leaf. I say that because they are the only ones made in real production numbers with replacement battery packs cheap and readily available. My Spark EV was fun but they only made ~6000 of them and a replacement battery is $22,000.

A Bolt is much nicer but much more expensive. The Volt is an option if he wants a PHEV instead of an EV.

I would forget about towing to charge and just plan on plugging into the shore power at RV parks.
