GEORGE - You and I have the exact same thoughts on electric vehicles, and for the same reasons. I'm not sure WHY Ford is rushing to create so many electric vehicles. I guess maybe they believe what the POTUS and the creators of The GREEN NEW DEAL are spreading, but a manure spreader would be a better tool to spread what they are making. My typical trip is 5 miles to town or Doctor's office, or town hall to drop off fallen tree limbs, then 5 miles home. But What happens when I want to drive 400 miles to AVOCA, Iowa to visit FARMALL LAND, how many stops to recharge on that 400 mile trip? Right now my biggest one day trip is a bit over 1100 miles. 4 gas stops, and a lunch & potty stop, Wife was a REAL Trooper, She stayed awake to keep Me awake. The idea of a vehicle burning hydrogen with the waste product being WATER, is the ONLY idea that makes any sense for the future. Today's technology using Lithium batteries is DANGEROUS, for people AND the environment. There's only so much Lithium on this planet, it would be a hazardous waste if we weren't using it for batteries for everything from cell phones to toys, cameras, yard tools, and now cars & pickups. Have Our Elected Officials got even the slightest clue how much energy it takes to keep a 80,000# semi-truck rolling 60-70 mph down the highway, and how HUGE the battery needed to make that energy has to be. There's NO future in my wildest dreams where I drive an electric car/truck. I have a normal collection of cordless tools. I did have 4 good Ni-Cad batteries and 4 good Lith-Ion batteries, I'm now down to 3+3, when I get to 2+2 I'll probably have to buy a couple. Or pull my corded tools out of storage, afterall, they're electric too.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
