Yeah, I've seen similar reviews, the range drops to something like 60 miles if you tow anything substantial. If the Tesla Semi can haul 80,000lbs 500 miles it's only a matter of time before that trickles down into other vehicles. A supercharger definitely wouldn't accommodate 50ft of vehicle! The Level 4 charger for the Semi is a pull through though, this is the design you'd need.

Yeah, that sounds about right! As these pick up more and more we will likely see lots of changes to places where charging might happen. Clearly I haven't done a ton of research on the trucks yet! I wonder how the Rivian trucks work. They have been out for quite a while now.
Rivian is a solid truck from what I've heard. A friend of mine has one and loves it. Someone in our building is thinking of getting a Rivian too. They're quite pricey though.
I haven't even looked. I've only ever seen one out in the wild and that was down in Ohio.
