Be aware that towing or carrying a heavy payload will reduce your range. If you have ready access to a rapid charger, you can charge up your truck from 15 percent to 80 percent in less than 45 minutes.
The regular battery offers 2000 pounds of payload capacity. If you choose the extended-range battery, your payload will drop to 1,800 pounds. The larger batteries do add weight to the truck and limit your payload. Towing capacity is flipped. The extended-range battery will allow 10,000 pounds of towing capacity; the smaller battery will tow 7,700 pounds.
As you plan your travels and monitor the weight of the trailer or RV you'll be towing, pay careful attention to range. Towing will greatly decrease your range, and the more weight you tow, the sooner you'll need to charge near Westerly, Rhode Island.
