Tesla Model X Tows Better Than Toyota Tacoma?

...and it costs 2-2.5 times more.

 

I could have sworn my towing capacity was significantly higher than the 2500 lb claimed in that article. Somewhere in the range of 6,800lb.

 

DBL 4x4 is 6400lbs max

 

obviously the writer just google toyota tacoma specs and went with the first number he saw (4 cyl w/out tow pkg)

 

refill at a gas station - a few min. recharge your tesla - forever. not to mention the range

 

This fucking article. OP, how did you even find that webside? lol

 

Which is still 1000 lbs more than the author claims...

 

It's still a work in progress, I'll wait...
Cheers!

 

Don't get me wrong if I had the money I would probably own a Tesla but not for towing. Just like around town bs plus all that go fast now power would be nice.

 

I also didn't buy a tacoma for towing. If I needed a truck specifically to tow things I would have bought an old cummins dodge.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if in 5-10 years, there is a Tesla model in production or in the works that has similar towing capabilities to a full size truck.

 

True unless you need it for light towing then that is over kill. I didn't either but it has amazed me when I have towed with it because I wasn't expecting much, but would expect more than a tesla.

 

Why is this thread even still going? lol

 

i was researching a paper on fictional forums stats and stumbled on it.

 

Because some of us are at work and don't want to work so we will find anything to talk about! Plus discussions are fun and make you learn things.

Fixed that for you.

 

Ahh yes forgot that part. Sometimes I wish I got payed in parts for the truck instead of money. Like awesome 2 weeks (or month depends on how your paycheck gets sent out) here is some of that suspension work you wanted. Another pay check would be like cool here is a set up UCA's or LCA's, etc lol!

 

I imagine if we got paid for in parts, the government wouldn't get to take their share! Naw, pretty sure they'd get their percentage. It'd be more like: here's 60% of that suspension work you wanted.
