    Today, would you buy an EV vehicle.

    Today, would you buy an EV vehicle.

    You can extend them by plugging one into another. Let's see, 200 feet x 40 is 8000 feet. If you buy 100 foot cables, that is only 80. At $50, it is only an investment of $400. Oh, wait, power loss. OK, we need to run about 4 parallel power paths. OK, 320 power cords. That is only $1600...

    Hi, I am Larus

    I am a new member and a new farmer. Did a little with Grandpa when very young and have gardened on and off over the years, but this is my first ownership of a tractor. I am in North Georgia and have clay/loam soil. The rocks are plentiful. I think the Kubota L2501DT was a good choice for me...
