EVs not ready for prime time for towing RVs? For sure.
But we all need to be prepared to thank the early adopters and the vehicle manufacturers, because it won't be long before EVs are our only option. So let's hope the manufacturers make great strides with EV trucks and with battery and charging development.
Meanwhile, climate change is putting a lot of pressure on ICE vehicles worldwide. And what's particularly aggravating is being behind someone in a diesel who appears for all the world to be rolling coal, but in fact is just a gross polluter who spews a thick, black cloud every time he cracks the throttle. Mile for mile, one of these beasts ofsets hundreds of electrics.
Kudos in particular to Ford for taking on the EV truck challenge. Without this massive investment in R&D, we'd be facing 1970's-like struggles with new vehicles...you may remember the '70's, when gas lines were paired with 5-gallon purchase limits, and the beasts on the road at the time struggled to make 10 MPG.

We can justifiably chuckle that we aren't there yet, but if you like RV-ing, you'd better hope we get there soon.
PS, someone mentioned the gas/electric Prius. The Prius is consistently one of the most reliable cars on the road.
