$29k for the system and install. 12 year loan at 2.99% with $160 per month payment.

30% federal tax credit of $8,600 for purchasing system brings cost down to $20.5k
So essentially, the power credit pays all but $50 a month of the system cost, which is way cheaper than paying a normal power bill....very nice.

Do you have the option of going off grid totally and getting battery banks to store the power?

Yes. I'll have the loan paid off within 2 years, then my electricity is free for the rest of the time I own the house. Also installing the system increases the property value.

I could add that option but its expensive and I don't feel the need to do so.

Maybe if I just bought myself a tractor, I'd wind up having to force myself to get some land so I have a place to use it.

Yep, came with a Caterpillar V8 Diesel. It was a beast in it's day. Oliver tractors will always be my favorite because that's what we always had when I was growing up, and my family started the company way back in the day. Then it was called the Hart-Parr Tractor Corp.

Depends on the size of the farm and the tractors needed. The new huge Ag tractors are GPS and/or laser guided and have insane programming abilities

yeah but like you said in that post above, then you are beholden to the service and warranty support of the company, which Im sure many small farm owners just dont want to deal with

I bought a Gravely ZTHD52 last year and it is awesome. Commercial mower performance without the commercial mower price.

Also, Kubota often does 84 month 0% financing on new tractors and you can force the dealer to throw in a bunch of implements to make the sale

Yea not cheap. I’ve been pricing them out. New compacts with a mower and front loader are 20k. Subcompacts are a little less but they are tiny.

Backhoe attachments add like $6k. Fuark.
