The Tesla Cybertruck has absolutely dominated discussions amongst the electric truck scene, but can it handle the electric truck's biggest hurdle - long range towing? We'll cover four major subjects in this video:
1) Why do electric pickup trucks struggle with long range towing?
2) How does a truck's shape influence it's towing range?
3) Why do some trucks lose more range while towing than others?
4) How do options like the Cybertruck and Silverado EV stack up in long range towing applications?
