We've got a Rivian R1T and a Duramax veteran here, pulling an Airstream, and the RST's payload is a serious buzzkill. But 1440 lbs seriously? With a 1000 lb tongue weight and two adults, you're left with pocket change for gear. We need 2000+ lbs to make this a viable tow rig, especially if we're chasing that 200-mile range. The advertised 10,000 lb towing is pointless if you can't carry the load. Are we pinning our hopes on the LT and Trail Boss variants, or is GM missing the mark on this one? Anyone have insider info on potential payload improvements? Because right now, the Silverado EV is looking like a tow-capable mirage.
