9640 lbs. Half that is probably battery.
At that weight that sucker would probably get stuck in a mud puddle.
Looks cool though.

Range test finds gas pickup can tow 2,000-lb trailer 2.8 times farther than new electric pickup. And what is the range of a fully-charged GMC Hummer EV towing a 2,000-lb trailer?

And, leading the pack in distance while towing at 140 miles, it’ll cost you $0.71 per mile and you certainly won’t be going far nor fast, between charges.

Does not matter. All that matters is that you get to virtue-signal to everyone that you’re “green.”

After all gas-powered vehicles are declared illegal, all those school buses, ambulances, cop cars and tow trucks still will need to be charged. HUGE costs lie ahead!

Call me crazy, but this all sounds like part of the plan to herd the people into cities and make them ride the choo-choo.

The electric fanbois never consider the cost to upgrade home charging systems to 220 or 440 to make recharging times reasonable for a commute.

Just wait until all of the "Woke" Californians try to escape their wildfires when their Grid gets shut down! Perhaps Karma can be viewed in real time?
