My cousin has a 2021 F-150 Powerboost and he runs everything on his trailer with it. Why doesn’t the F-350 have a 30 or 50 amp plug like the F-150 does?
The Super Duty’s don’t have the high voltage hybrid battery, like the F150’s do. Non-hybrid F150’s can’t have 7.2kw either. Your alternator wouldn’t be able to keep up with the discharge rate. Once they release a hybrid Super Duty, they’ll do it
Also, I am 100% able to power one AC on my RV plugged into 20 amp no problem. Do it all the time. But I am super interested in the future of this. I’ve also been playing a lot with the big solar batteries. I have one big enough to plug 30 amps into and it’s actually impressive as well. Lastly, dude the BougeRV panels are the way to go.
Aussie trailers often have an Anderson plug you can run straight off of the truck to run and charge the trailer while you’re on the road or parked idling.
Not really usable for boondocking but great in an emergency if your RV batteries die at night and you need to power your fridge, leveling and tongue jack, a floodlight, couple fans, etc. I have a generator and a basic solar package on my RV but it's always good to have multiple failsafes.
It will be interesting to see what competitors come out with since more people are RV'ing these days or simply need to power something for a short time off grid or during emergencies w/power outages at home.
I thought with the Pro Power option on the super duty you got a 208/240 style outlet? As for the idle time -- that should bother a diesel less than a gas engine. Yeah, the particulate filter will have to go into regen mode more often than if you were driving down the road, but one of the advantages of the diesel engine is the longer life.
Agreed. The power onboard should be used as an emergency backup and it certainly is nice to have. Getting a small generator for constant running is the way to go IMO. Save that idle time and gas.
I'm hoping to leverage the Pro Power Onboard to charge my battery bank in the 5th Wheel while going down the road so that it's at 100% when I get to the Boondock site. The motor will be running anyway driving down the road and then I can just use the batter bank once I'm parked supplemented with solar. Any reason this won't work? I jst need to find a way to run a cord through the 5th wheel hitch to the lower bay.
Idk, good in a pinch. It's like he said, not really meant for RV boondocking but great for emergencies or things like power tool applications. I probably wouldn't option it in but my Platinum came with it and I've already used it a few times.
Are you kidding me? You must not have a commercial driver's license. Diesel engines are designed to idle for extensive lengths of time. Have you heard of Cummins or Detroit? 😅

Always run the shortest extension cord with the largest wire gauge.
Powerboost f150 has 7.2kw of power....come on superduty engineers....let's get that half ton features on your full size trucks...

Very good question dude! I’ve been curious about this.

THANK YOU for this. This is awesome. I have a 28 footer that has a very similar floor plan. I also have 2 ACs with a 50amp service.
Awesome test. Thanks.

Shortest extention cord with largest wire is best to use
Great Information. !!
hey i like that rv and truck
Ugh, no. Except in an emergency, why would you idle that truck to get 2kwh instead of using a cheap 2kw inverter generator?!?
Agreed. The power onboard should be used as an emergency backup and it certainly is nice to have. Getting a small generator for constant running is the way to go IMO. Save that idle time and gas.
Maybe if you had soft starts it would run the AC

I have a 2013 f350 with an inverter that plugs into the cigarette port. Would it be safe to run it off that or should I use the plugs
ProPower available with the gas motor ?
Diesels are fine with running for a long time
How do like your coffee JB?
You would be certainly better off if you learned a few dynamics of electrical loads. How much did you lose by using that $9.00 cord?
He literally says that in the video. Are you just repeating what he said lol?
Your extension cord is too small of gauge for what you're doing.
So…..essentially a total waste of a system on that Super Duty if you RV. 😂

Emissions crap.
The emissions ruined that. However non emissions diesels are way better idling for long periods of time vs gas.
Used to be fine but now it’s bad to idle modern diesel trucks…
High idle helps. But still not awesome.

I think his content is pretty good. At least he gets to the point without too much babble.
@@munchra48 Yet, here you are😂
Where is your channel and work you put into it?
Cool story bro. Go back to watching clips of the view now.
I'm sure he will be happy to learn he can quit this hustle and simply follow your lead of posting in the comments section being a kunt.
Will for a while, but try it boondocking and you will be stuck
