A YouTuber in Utah documented his Rivian truck towing 10,000 pounds for 100 miles during the winter.
Zack Nelson is a self-proclaimed lover of his Rivian R1T electric truck and decided to tow an electric Hummer with additional weight in scrap metal in 34-degree weather. Without anything in tow, the truck has a typical range of over 300 miles.
Nelson found himself charging his truck for over 45 minutes to no avail during his journey. He eventually had to detach from his trailer and charge at a 50-kilowatt station, where he was able to fully charge in about 30 minutes. The journey in total cost $13 in electricity, according to Nelson.

Only when you plan to road trip a Humvee in winter.

Right now any electric trucks are worthless to us cattle ranchers.

Electric vehicles are a scam. Wake up people.

The majority of you obese, inbred rednecks get hard at the sight or mention of a Buc-ee’s, which you’re spending no less than 45 minutes to park, fuel up, shove your fat faces with pulled pork and then leave.

You sound angry. I hate electric vehicles, am not obese and could PT you until you died from it.

Jesus. Settle the frick down cream puff.
To quote Thomas Sowell, there are no solutions. There are just alternatives with different trade-offs.
If you want a vehicle with fewer moving parts likely to require maintenance, go electric but consider the trade-offs of lower range and longer time to refuel.
If you prefer longer distance to refuel and value your time, but are willing to endure more frequent maintenance over the years, go internal combustion.

Same thought
Youtube channels like this are so frickin annoying. Every video is just a veiled commercial.

The Ford Lightning is worse. I think it will tow like 60 miles when towing near capacity.

Yesterday we moved a tractor and batwing disk from the shop to barn. About 80 miles. 19,000 pounds pulled with F450.
Barely moved fuel gauge.
To hell with an electric truck.

You have no defense when you resort to personal attacks.

Technology just isn’t there for an EV truck. At least not for my driving habits.
Maybe one day soon………..

Only if you haul cattle or horses yourself. We're getting one for our ranch because we can charge it and not worry about keeping fuel on property for it.
