That is interesting. I guess I thought with batteries, and the harvester, these vehicles will be heavy, as you said. I thought with that weight and spinning tires they would burrow into soft ground like a tick.
I have never been a big off roader. I like to drive the fire trails and two tracks, and play around on unplowed roads when it snows. I just wonder how well a heavy electric vehicle will do in the snow? My main use will really be to get around when it snows. I don't really have a lot of desire...
I have read a lot of different things about the range extenders. Some people are claiming that the vehicle will run as long as your put gas in them, and you don't have to ever plug them in. I'm not sure whether to believe that or not.
That's great. I hope you enjoy it. I hope through your life there will be a lot of new cars, because each one gives you that new car "buzz" which can't be beat!
I am in the same boat. I want to go out in style. I remember being a longer man, seeing an old guy in a nice ride, and saying "Look at that old fool in that nice car/truck." Of course, it was mostly said out of envy.
Now it is my turn to be the old fool.
I am interested in knowing if the range extender could be used to charge the batteries if the Scout is not running? Say for instance you go to a restaurant, and you need a charge. Could you leave the gas generator run with the vehicle locked, and charge it up while you are having dinner?
Thanks.
