I agree on the terminology confusion. I've heard Hybrids being defined as combination gas and electric, regenerative recharge for the batteries, runs off batteries when it can, then engine kicks in and drives the car. Prius and many others.
Electric- batteries only, no engine. Nissan something or other.
???- Primarily electric, plug in to recharge, engine kicks in to charge the batteries only, not drive the car. Chevy Volt.
The Volt makes the most sense to me- 10 mile (roundtrip), most days that's it. But occasional trips of up to 100 miles. Problem is, I can't get one for $3,000 like I'm accustomed to paying. Paid $2,500 for present '98 Buick Park Avenue w/109,000 miles (got a deal due to undiagnosed electrical problem, which turned out to be a blown fuse). Gets 30 MPG highway, 24 city, it'll last me 5 years- then get another one. Can't beat it with a stick.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
