Solarized Camper Shell

The crude image above is the top view of a truck, a Ford F150 Lightning, for example. With a campershell. Now imagine that this campershell has 4 solar panels on it, stacked on top of each other. Panels 2-4 slide out and are supported by a telescoping leg and by a frame underneath. These solar panels, if they are 800W panels could generate 2400W/hour on a decently sunny day. This electricity could then be fed right into the truck’s battery to power a cooler, an electric grill, the truck itself.

Considering how lighter and cheaper solar panels are getting, it seems like a pretty feasible idea.

Thoughts?
