@dancing james does that articulated tractor come in an electric version? Would be great if it did... Imagine charging your farm equipment with your own wind turbine?

Afaik Current electric motors don't deliver enough torque. Perhaps in time but most people talk about buying a tractor that'll last a lifetime. Our long term plans are a new photovoltaic roof and electric personal vehicles.

Pretty sure electric motors have enormous torque, no?

Definitely the way of the future. Fwiw, an electric drive train is as durable and more reliable compared to old Diesel tech but the battery packs is where it falls down. Soon though. Nanotech and graphene will probably solve it.
