Maybe on back to back runs. truck ran 11.3 with the battery in the 30s % charge and
The Cybertruck uses the gen 2 4680 cells which are supposed to be better at not overheating in high charge and discharge uses. It weighs over a ton "less" than the Hummer electric

For heavy towing any distance give me a diesel.

Tesla gave up on fifth wheel and gooseneck towing as well which Is a common job for trucks that get worked.

Those high rear sail panels would seem to preclude it. Then again most truck owners in the city never go off road or tow. Something like 70 % never have the truck bed loaded even once a month if axios is right.

"In a study conducted by Axios, researchers found that a significant portion of modern pickup truck owners rarely, if never, use their vehicles for hauling, towing, or other typical truck stuff. Instead, they are more likely to be used for shopping, running errands, and commuting."
