Ummmm.............I live on a cattle ranch/farm. We haul the cattle to pasture every summer, use multiple tractors to work the fields, 3/4 ton and 1 ton pickups and trailers to haul cattle and sheep from place to place, we contract large semi tractor trailers to haul the live stock, we used multiple tractors all year round to harvest hay and feed hay....no amount of batteries on all that equipment will work....you can't expect all the small farmers and ranchers such as us to be able to buy some new state of the art tractors and trucks to replace the gasoline and diesel that we use now. Unless you are in favor of ousting small business in favor of large corporate or government run farms/ranches. I also live 45 miles from the town that has all the cattle supplies, some materials have to be hauled in a 1 ton pickup or larger, so....for us, it won't work out very soon, certainly not in 10 years.
