Don't need a truck bed to tow. Need a strong frame and good electric engine (better torque)
I have an EV myself but towing with electric vehicles has its disadvantages.
Tounge weight and towing capacity is usually lowere by the exact difference in weight of the lithium ion batteries you are already hauling. usually 1 ton difference to its ICE counterpart.
So you're saying they have shit frames? And need stronger frames to go with their atrong electric motors?
Nope. He's saying that the weight of the battery pack eats up 2000lbs of towing capacity. Plus the shit frames they are built on to cut weight to help due to the battery packs.
Ill be honest; i mostly know about trains which are just better than cars
But i know electric motors are much torqier than combustion.
And i don't suuuuper care about the particulars, because we shouldn't have cars and cannot keep burning fossil fuels.
So where do you apartment dwellers store your trailer?
Honestly don't want cars to exist. But the same placd as everyone else; in a parking spot?that's what towing is. Car brains are the least creative things in the world.
I completely agree. I'd love a shorter bed + more seat room and maybe small cap. I only really need the towing the bed only gets used 10 times a year.
