While my farm is small scale , run around 300 acres . Grow 50 acres of grain , 25 acres of silage corn , all the rest is hay . Make between 13-1500 round bales , for right around 65 milk cows, so there is manure to spread too . My gas tractors are antiques that never go to the field anymore. My four main tractors are 100 hp and over , two that see the most use get only 400 hours each. I would go broke feeding a gas tractor here to do this kind of work at $1.00 per litre or around $4.00 per gallon . A 1000 hours each year on a tractor is what you say you do , will drink up 3-4000 gallons of fuel , even at two bucks a gallon , yikes !!! I am unsure what you use your tractors for , but that is a lot of hours to run on some forty plus year old tractors each year. As I recall gas tractors need to be rebuilt more often than diesels did too. Just out of curiosity , what kind of farming do you do ?

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
