It's very common for truck owners to not tow or haul 95% of the time. But when they do need to, the truck damn well better work. I asked a couple contractors what they thought about the Lightning, to them it's an expensive toy but nothing that will replace the ability to haul equipment to the next state over and back in the same day, all with 1 gas fillup or less. Time is money for them, and they have no time to sit around waiting for stuff to charge. EV trucks are immensely heavy, cost 30 to 50 percent more, and have terrible range. Not to mention you have to charge them. You can't make the range better like you can on a EV car by making it more aerodynamic, because towing completely negates that. Maybe one day we'll get better battery tech or some other dense energy storage.
