six_volts··on Tesla to wind down Cybertruck production
>there's power stations

you lost me here, laughing. Nobody calls them that. You’ve never driven an EV long distance, much less actually towed with one.

I’ve towed 5000+ lbs, including a mid-size SUV on a trailer, cross-country with another EV half of a dozen times. Stopping a lot is bit tedious, but it drives so well. The Rivian and Silverado both have big packs and work well. The Lightning didn’t have enough range for long-distance towing.

Moving a trailer around in town or taking a boat or camper to a lake nearby would be comfortable and the torque makes the drive effortless.
