What's the tow capacity and range when towing? No 4WD either. It's not a truck it's a UTV.

  Ah yeah with a 1700 pound payload and no tow capacity. Many UTVs are 4WD too.

    6,600lb tow capacity. You can dislike a thing, but like, you should probably at least get the facts straight.

      Let's see the production model pull 6600 pounds on an 80% charge. Which by the way I see no stats on this on the site. But I'd much rather see production demos before I trusted those even. Even Cybertruck struggles to tow full weight at full charge further than 90 miles. How much you want to bet you'd be calling a real truck to tow your ass out of that situation? There's a reason electric trucks haven't taken off for real work use cases.

When were electric trucks realistically available on the market for a reasonable price? I use a truck regularly (forestry industry), there's huge desire for them, they just haven't been around until very recently. You can't buy a secondhand ol beatup electric truck yet, so I don't expect them to be taking off yet.

        You’ve moved the goal posts twice, and twice been corrected on your facts that were insanely wrong without a single capitulation or mention about them. You’re the definition of arguing in bad faith, and clearly have an agenda here. I suspect you drive a big truck and base your personality around it. Big man over here.

      Yeah, that guy is dreaming. Not sure why he keeps lying.

6600 lb towing capacity Towing range is an issue with all EVs and the battery on this one isn't that big, but if you're regularly doing long distance towing I'm not sure why you'd start with a city truck
