Have you had a chance to tow this with your R1T yet? We’re considering one as it looks like a great fit for our family and should theoretically be pretty efficient to tow. I’m super curious what real-world consumption looks like.

Lamar 7500lb dump trailer. Only hauled with it a few times, but zero issues so far. Don’t even know it’s back there.

No pics, but the only thing I've ever towed with my R1T has been a broken down Jeep... up a hill... offroad. :D

My wife bought a horse so I bought a R1T! It will eventually tow two horses in a horse trailer for around 6,000 pounds total weight. I don't see this being a problem for the R1T.

Occasionally will tow my car trailer with different vehicles in it, 8.5x24' Sure-Trac, will normally be 7-8k loaded, is 4k empty. Tows smooth and effortlessly empty or loaded.

Will also tow a utility or small dump trailer every now and then, but those aren't as "fun".

Since it's about "What are you going to pull / tow" ... future tense, I submit the race car my son and I are building. It looks bad, but it's going to go together quickly once a few more parts arrive.

The Rivian barely knows it's back there.
