1 .- 5 . (canceled) 6 . An electric truck that travels by electric power supplied from a battery, comprising: a ladder frame including a pair of side rails, wherein the side rails face each other in a vehicle width direction; and a power supply unit including the battery, wherein the power supply unit is disposed between the side rails and is connected to the side rails; wherein the side rails each have flanges having a predetermined width provided at each edge of a respective web; wherein a first one of the flanges at a first location facing a first corner of the power supply unit as viewed in the vehicle width direction has a first narrowed flange portion having a width smaller than the predetermined width. 7 . The electric truck according to claim 6 , wherein a second one of the flanges at a second location facing a second corner of the power supply unit as viewed in the vehicle width direction has a second narrowed flange portion having the width smaller than the predetermined width. 8 . The electric truck according to claim 7 , wherein the first corner and the second corner of the power supply unit are vehicle front-side corners of the power supply unit. 9 . The electric truck according to claim 7 , wherein the first corner and the second corner of the power supply unit are vehicle rear-side corners of the power supply unit. 10 . The electric truck according to claim 6 , wherein the first narrowed flange portion has an arc-shaped outline. 11 . The electric truck according to claim 6 , wherein a most narrowed point at which the first narrowed flange portion has a smallest width is in alignment with the first corner of the power supply unit as viewed in the vehicle width direction.
