Thoughts on towing. (I like to RV.)

* Its capacity of 7,500+ lbs isn't too shabby. Not F150/1500 class. But Jeep Gladiator territory, which is another much-awaited domestic truck getting some attention.

* I'm assuming the 250+ mile range drops significantly when towing.

* When camped at sites serviced by electricity, it's often 30/50 amp service and unmetered. Good for recharging!

I'm unlikely to jump on board yet, but this is a beautiful experiment and there will be many trucking niche users watching!

If you're willing to drop 70k there is apparently a version with 14,000 lbs towing and 500+ mile range.

Please don't be that EV owner that mooches off of "free" sockets. Or at least ask first. RV parks aren't expecting people to use $5-10 of electricity overnight, and they'll get upset at EV owners.

Just get the 200kwH model (my est for the 500 mi range), plug the RV into the truck, and go boondocking for a week with A/C, fridge, induction cooker, and no propane. Extra bonus if the truck supports charging from the 2kW array on the roof of the RV.

It is tax detectable to donate directly to a public government, if you feel uncomfortable about it.
