choosing the right battery for the Slate truck

[madMike_]

bigger isn't always better, right? the Slate Auto big battery adds serious weight for an extra 90 miles of range
if the horsepower and torque stay the same, you're essentially just slowing the truck down for range, you might not even need
I’m sticking with the smaller battery to keep the truck light, fun, and capable for daily hauling
who else is prioritizing payload and handling over long distance range?

I'll be using the base battery for a lot of of those same reasons. EV is not a road trip vehicle for me
I think the reduced weight, longer tire life, and better drivability will be well worth it
