Using 2023 ram 2500 as generator?

i plan on taking my airstream to glacier for a two night stay in the “no generator” area. I have two 100ah lithium batteries. Advice about how to use the truck to save trailer batteries?

If it's a NO GENERATOR area, do you really think they'll let you idle the truck for eight hours?

Two 100-hour batteries are plenty for 2 days. You can't run an A/C or a microwave, but that should be enough for fridge, TV, lights, etc.

You could also get a portable solar set up. That would help your batteries a little. Some trailers are prewired with the hookup. Not sure about Airstream though.

There are portable solar panels, some up to 100 watt

You really need to use a generator? What do you need to run?

12 volt or 115 volt

no kidding. In Montana running your generator or idling your diesel truck in a campground can get you shot....

I'm shocked that as a RVer with 2 Lithmium batteries you don't know about solar.

I mean for very little money, panels, charger control and inverter you are set for some great adventures.

You may want to check into a DC-DC Charger for your truck and trailer. I installed one in my trailer running 3 100amh lithium batteries and the truck charges them up with no problem at all. If you boondock and rely on your standard 7 pin truck/trailer connection, you'll only get a bare minimum charge on those batteries.
