DIY EV camper vans would sell, if reasonably priced
Maybe. These have a range of 272 miles, which is good compared to most of the other delivery vans, but would significantly limit the places you can camp, especially out west.
It would be tough for a gas vehicle with that range to go to certain places, and that doesn't account for more limited charging locations, or the extra weight of a camper conversion.
Yeah, that's a little light, but that's still 3+ hours of driving between charges. There are a surprising amount of EV chargers scattered around Colorado. Going to a campground with RV hookups would really help. And solar panels on the roof wouldn't give a ton of range back, but 5-10 miles per day isn't nothing.
