This is just like the old coffee shop, which was like the old coffee shop down the street. Pull up a chair, sit down and enjoy some good discussions. Please, no political, religious or racial posts.
I know nothing other than it looks like a mower/quad/tractor. Hey Tom...they also have an on board generator ! The deck seems to b powered by electric motors. No belts to fart with!! Have i been missing something or r they brand new on the scene ? Um.... Maybe i will start a new hobby Dave

No thanks! You made me go to their website though... You owe me 20 minutes of my life back!
Maximum continuous power of 6500 Watts is equivalent to 8.7 hp. That is before you convert it to DC for the motors and after your gasoline motor used probably 10 hp to make 8.7 hp of electric... Anytime you convert energy, there are losses, so I'll keep my small losses of belts without the added complication of generator head, DC converter, battery(s), and multiple separate DC motors.
I will admit front suspension is interesting, but could make for some strangely varying cutting heights. A drive anywhere generator is kind of neat, but easy enough to throw one in a trailer behind a real tractor!
Sorry about the time Tom.....send me the bill for time spent. Lets see u would have been in your easy chair sippin a cold one.... dreaming of some chart or graph u could report on.......so about $.50 I think u r mistaken on the power head of this new tractor of the Future. I think i will buy stock in this new up and coming company Two words Tom old buddy....Diesel Electric. Jess and Daniel maybe u can help me out w this! I took 20 minutes of my time to draw a chart just so u would understand how it works. Dave

Man....tough crowd! Lol. No really I was just trying to joke around cause I think we need more fun around here! Ha Ha. But seriously I do see this just being a first generation of more to come. I think as people loose mechanical skills the idea of simple direct drive motors will look pretty good for forward/ reverse and mower blades. But in the mean time we can make fun of this "jack of all trades" master of none oh it comes in camo color also......u know.....if u want to watch TV while hunting, or if u want to mow your neighbors lawn whos house looks like the "Herman Munster" house in the cover of night.
