Hello all

 

It looks like they just swap out the IC engine and add an electric motor and batteries. While this is a very good idea, it is far from "revolutionary" Wheelhorse" did it in 1986 with the C 141. Our 1970 vintage ET and the OX are revolutionary. This is just evolutionary. That being said I wish them well the fewer IC on lawns the better.

 

Cheers.

 

PS. I am still looking for a partner to buy one of the two ET in Schoharie NY, I told you guys about last week.
