?? It has the same 10,000lb towing capacity as the standard v6 model. Not sure what you're referring to here.

  Range. Many people expect towing to severely and adversely affect the range.

    Uh, your range is cut in half in a gas truck too. Expect to get 10mpg or less, even on flat terrain

      Gas trucks have 30+ gallon tanks. Plus you can still get a diesel truck if you really want to tow.

  Range will suffer greatly and non-Teslas have terrible charging infrastructure. Even Tesla owners have horror stories of trying to tow a trailer and not being able to make it no the next charger.[1] MotorTrend tried towing a car with a Rivian R1T. It reduced the maximum range from 314 miles down to 175 miles.[2] Both range and charging infrastructure will improve over time, but it's not quite there today. 1. https://twitter.com/AlecStapp/status/1376947773967372292 https://twitter.com/AlecStapp/status/1376947773967372292 2. https://www.motortrend.com/features/how-far-can-you-tow-with-electric-truck-range/ https://www.motortrend.com/features/how-far-can-you-tow-with...

    175 miles seem to be a huge distance for me and I can't imagine not passing by at least one big city with standardized charging infrastructure.

      Cities are really not that dense. Harrisburg to Pittsburg is over 200 miles along the highway. From Albuquerque you could only get to Santa Fe or vice-versa, and then you're stuck. You'd be trapped in Salt Lake City or Denver too.

  range charging every 120 miles (see the recent rivian test) is not great and even if you find chargers, having to take a break to wait for charging that often is double not great
