It's a massive waste of energy. What does a good diesel generator have, like 20% energy efficiency? Not taking into account that you're wasting a lot energy for towing it.

It would also have to be massive.

Why would It be diesel?

Besides what exactly is the alternative if there is no charging location on the way?

Just spend $150/day to rent a car in addition to all other travel expenses?
