Curious, with new batteries, and even after some cycles, will turf mode drain the batteries faster, or slower than street mode ?  
Wifey, and I, take slower rides with our puppies, so we want to do anything we can to get the most out of our batteries. Thank you in advance for any guidance.  
God bless,  
Scott and Carla

If you can deal with the dreadful acceleration lag, turf draws less (slower drain). I never attempted to determine how much difference it made on a stock cart though. Maybe worth at least a few extra miles?
