I must be missing something.  I took Pete's comment to refer to the use of 
an 
AC drive motor.  That wouldn't cause any problems with existing 
attachments.  
The drive's inverter would still use DC input from the batteries.

It's a moot point, though, since the email said that the new tractor would 
use 
a DC drive.

BTW, a note to Pete - next time, please don't include the entire digest 
when 
replying!  It's rather painful to people who are on slow dialup 
connections.  
Not that I'd know.  ;-)
