Maybe. But a lot of people tow light as well. Both the lightnings and Rivians have decent towing ranges when towing smaller single axle trailers. We saw one towing a T@B this fall on the Sunshine Coast. Never had a chance to talk to him. Think it was an American plate. He was coming off the ferry and we were getting ready to go on. Sharp looking little truck though. Kind of a darker green colour.

Yup, and some people tow heavy. So it was a legit question. Not sure why people have their knickers in a twist over it...

And this is an RV forum and most folks here are towing Fivers and Travel Trailers. Or maybe planning to do so. Why else would we be looking at Tow Trucks forum? Not of great interest to Class A, B and C Rvers. Not too many camping using a 8 foot Tractor Supply flatbed.

Depends where you are I guess. One of things that we noticed this summer on our cross country tour was most of the rigs on the road were smaller trailers being towed by SUV’s and small trucks. The campgrounds were full of them. Many of the bigger units had lots of grass growing up around them. The result of expensive fuel I suppose. But many of the campgrounds we were in were provincial parks that couldn’t handle bigger rigs anyway. Heck, some of the sites we got were tight for our 18 footer. Especially in northern Ontario provincial parks going over the Great Lakes. Nice though. There were also a lot of small C’s and B’s. I could have disconnected but we wanted the site open.
