I feel like most of your questions were answered in the article. "The future is already here — it's just not very evenly distributed." Your Winnebago exists today for the wealthy and privileged. If you're extremely rich, life is largely automated and if you squint, plays out like the scenario proposed in the story except with other people (and liberal application of cash) playing the role of automated services. The vision is one were nearly _all_ services a traveller might interact with have seen the kind of automation we've seen in areas like agriculture. We've already replaced fields full of farm-hands with one guy and a combine. What happens to the travel business when every single service can be readily provided by a machine? What would the price to the user look like when there is no labor component (outside of occasional maintenance)? To answer the two questions you posed directly: Your laundry is picked up by drone back to central laundry, plumbing is hooked up when docked at the "hotel". The "parking lots" would look similar to modern-day highrise hotels or apartment buildings: individual units looking out over the city, but these ones can be swapped in and out. In this model, "parking" is hard to distinguish from "real estate" when we've made your residence fully mobile.
