What? It's rated to tow 11,000 lbs. An f150 tows 7,400-10,800 in comparison. It's a stupid vehicle for many reasons but tow capacity is not one of them.
It can tow 11,000 pounds provided it's on a level surface and not something that an F150 could easily get itself out of, such as-

I know which one I'd trust to pull something as heavy a float. You never know. There might be water around.

do you like the cybertruck? I cant tell.
Wow you’ve really done your research, clearly you love the cyber truck
Edit: Jesus People I was just kidding
Sorry... you only research things you love? You must get scammed all the time in that case.
The people who spend too much researching before purchasing all know the feeling of endlessly finding products that intrigue them, only to find a handful of glaring flaws.
I am frequently disappointed.
Worst is when the disappointing stuff are things you don't think of until you use it. Like my convection toaster oven is the best oven I've ever had but I hate it because the UI is awful. It's all preset based with presets I never use when there's only like 4 options to adjust, so I need to figure out which preset is closest to what I want then adjust it from there because none of the presets are good for anything without adjust them.
It makes buying things a bit of an ordeal, but on the other hand, I can't say I really dislike usually deciding to not buy something until I can do more research on it.
It also means that getting me a gift that would be something I'd really care about is going to be very difficult if you want it to be a surprise. I am picky as hell and hate badly designed shit, which includes most things. So I'll appreciate the thought and effort of a gift but can also resent that either this thing that I didn't choose is now a part of my life or I'll have to feel bad and ungrateful for getting a better version that won't annoy me each time I use it.
I feel you on the gift part. I'm quite picky about shitty products. That being said, I don't complain when I receive a gift I don't necessarily like, I just grumble when I use said gift in private.
Yeah, I'm like that, too, and then eventually feel kinda guilty when I do replace it with a better one when it either no longer works or I get frustrated enough with it.
As long as it isn't towing through beach sand or a mild rain.
