Towing really is an EV use-case that is no where near ready for primetime. There's several Youtube channels that have spent time playing with it (JerryRigEverything, BigTruckBigRV), but it really is early days.

We have a 1 ton dually that pulls a 5th wheel when we camp. Yes, we're at the far end of the camping spectrum, but it's what we've evolved to over time, and it's finlly a safe combindation. There is nothing that approaches a diesel pickup for it's ability to haul cross country with relatively rapid refuelling, and many Campers go through an iterative process where their Tow vehicle isn't adequate to the trailer they were sold, they upgrade the two vehicle, then outgrow the trailer...rinse-repeat.

It's been said plenty of times before, but gas and diesel's biggest problem is that they're just so energy dense and easy to transfer.

Biggest problem in the sense of making them oh-so-hard-to-resist? Otherwise I would have thought their biggest problem is emissions (CO2, and particulates for diesels...)

It's that second runner up is massively less convenient...The reason why certain addictive drugs are so bad isn't how they make you feel, or what they do to your body friends and family, it's because they're damn hard to stop using.
