I'll bet you the 3500 pound Tesla is the 2wd version, I bet the 500 mile 3 motor has the same GVWR as the base and under a 3000 pound payload.
Face it, worst in class payload and towing on the Tesla no matter how you spin it.

The only vehicle I've ever despised is my Dodge Ram because absolutely everything has been replaced at least once, except the body which is in disarray.
If the Tesla tows 500 pounds less but doesn't take 4 gallons of oil for an oil change, or have a crap transmission, or a finicky fuel pump... or a million other things that suck about full sized trucks, it's a winner.
What if the Tesla was better in every way? What would be the excuse then?
Being opposed to change for changes sake is dumb.
