Aero Build in Tennesee has introduced an 18 foot all electric trailer with solar called Coast. Pretty sweet, like a minihome, taking orders now. A bit pricey however.

I am very interested in preserving our earth (we need to heal all the damage that we have inflicted) and I am motivated to learn about electric vehicles. My question: is the way we produce electricity healthy to where we are benefitting the earth by buying electric? I understand fossil-fuel vehicles are not healthy for the climate but, I know that coal-fired electrical plants and other ways to produce electricity can be damaging, too. Soooo, are we picking a good solution here or simply selecting the worst of two evils? Thoughts?

Our first EV was also a used 2012 Nissan LEAF. When we found it worked for us as a commuter car, we added a 2015 Tesla Model S. It was a financial stretch to be sure, but we were sold on the technology. That car now has 122,500 miles on the odometer and is going strong. But with the recent price drops from Tesla and wanting towing capability, we ordered a 2023 Model Y with towing package. As you wrote, it's amazing how far the technology with range and charging has come in just 10 years.
