Price was only $1650 with newish batteries -- which is why I am OK with spending the money on the upgrades. For my market here I saved about ~$700 on the purchase. I will itemize what I bought when it all comes in the mail. It's quite a bit of money to drop at once but I am in this for wayyyyy cheaper than a UTV and it gives us a lot of good use. I love that it is electric and quiet.

No, no plans for that now. I would need a 48V array and I think it would be more trouble than it is worth.

I had a recent small surgical procedure, nothing big, but I'm a bit under the weather for installing all of the parts which will be here by tomorrow night. I am tempted to double-down on the pain meds and just get 'er done.

Last tractor sold. I am hoping I don't miss them too much. I don't plan on ordering up any more for a while -- I think the market has gotten soft and people have already bought their tractors for the summer.
