Electric Tractor...Now will it do ACTUAL WORK?

Electric Tractor...Now will it do ACTUAL WORK? Farming is one of the hardest and hottest jobs on earth, we work in the heat, cold, rain and snow and we plan for it by staying hydrated, pacing ourselves and getting the job done...we don't act like someone owes us something...we know they don't!

[@gregoryshumate4000]

I’ve been doing concrete work almost 50 yrs now,Brother! It doesn’t get no harder then that!😎

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

here's the problem with our society.....most people never see hard work being done....things just majically appear while they're gone.....they see delivery drivers and think that's some "Real hard work"...not knocking it, but it ain't nothing like laying brick, pouring concrete, farming, running heavy equipment, building fences, highways or even cleaning up a job site. Sad that the only exposure to outdoor work is a delivery driver

[@gregoryshumate4000]

You got that right,Brother! Good workers are almost impossible to find!🙄

[@GoogleAccount-fx4cz]

No one should be talkin about anybody's professional hard work or trade, whoever wear the shoe. Professionally college degree Or labor of any kind.Teachers attorneys, garbage collectors doctors homemakers military service mechanics mail delivery, UPS or professional drivers, caregivers And to all our servicemen military and wife to serve ,us all their hard work for their families earnings,together as one for the whole world to serve one another we are a member of the body, we all need each other hard work and. What. It feeds their family for a living. Thank you 👍 For your hard work we love you all, For the service❤️

[@SCraig1966]

Until you have done the job, you will never really know the job. 31 years in brown here. I got no complaints about the job, it was really good to me and my family. Also a US Marine. Driving for UPS is no joke physically, and working conditions can go up to 145° in the back of that truck. Delivering over 200 stops a day, and 500 packages, and weighing up to 150 lb each. Of course on average it is about 45 lb. Try grabbing one of those bails of hay throwing it on your shoulder and running it 40 yards to a door and then running back. Now do that every 5 minutes for 12 hours a day. Average walking distance is about 15 miles a day, and that's with weight. Then you get home, you won't care what mattress you're hitting. One may say a homesteader, that walks around with a camera all day is an easy job. But until they have done it they don't know. That's not to say that there aren't some UPS drivers that may have routes that are easier. As for A/C, it's a mute point, those trucks will never cool down from point a to b. Just not enough time, when you're stopping every 5 minutes and cant idle. But if you're going to endorse "technology🎉" , air conditioning is one that's been around for quite some time. Just remember somebody has to deliver all those products that you get for free and endorse on your channel. 😂

[@jamizimmerman8501]

Well said @SCraig1966 ! Same for postal workers and all those who work in any type of weather or season to deliver and/or get the job done! I thank you for your service in all areas and I thank you for standing up for all workers of all professions. 👍😃

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Cudos to you brother, you're not a crybaby that thinks he's supposed to sit in the AC and not work hard, insulting what I do doesn't bring value to your plight. I agree all delivery drivers run their butts off....but ya signed up for the job, ya knew the requirements and as a Marine you know how to do your job I'm sure. Stay safe, smart, hydrated and work hard. What's wrong with that is the mainstream media and crybaby way in which a person takes a job and then cries about how hot, cold, wet, snowy and physical the job might be. Ya signed up for it right? Just as I signed up to build this farm.....it's hot in the summer...stay hydrated, it's cold in the winter...dress appropriately.....the job requires physical activity...stay fit....and that's all my friend. We can't complain about the job that we agreed to do...it's our job....I don't fuss about going out and working all day in the field....nor should a delivery driver fuss about going out all day and delivering....he/she signed up for it brother

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

a man/woman can't complain about a job they applied for, knew the requirements and knew it was an outside job is all I'm saying. We live in a culture of complaining...it's too hot, it's too cold....it's too wet...it's too hard get out of the truck....none of which are valid complaints for a delivery driver that hired on fully knowing the requirements of the job....sorry....but I know it's hard work....but they signed up for it, now some are demanding luxuries that they never had because their "outside" job doesn't have air conditioning....quit and go work inside if you can't take the requirements of the job you signed up for right? If ya can't take changing weather conditions, why would you take an outside job? That's what this is about brother....no question delivery jobs are hard, but imagine being a roofer...ya don't hear them complaining and wanting air conditioning on the roof right? They signed up for this...tell me if I'm wrong

[@SCraig1966]

I don't see how you can bust a profession for wanting to improve their working conditions or tools, so they can do their job better. You're always looking to improve the way you do your work around the homestead. I also did roofing, my father was a carpenter. It's no joke. But if they had air conditioned suits, there would be roofers wanting them. I don't know about where you live, but most of the roofers in my area consist of immigrants. Which the majority of them can't complain, and won't complain. But you definitely don't see too many young Americans getting on a roof.

[@andrewgraeme8429]

Another tall guy with a dodgy back here - answer, regular mattress on a hard surface with a 4" memory foam mattress on top of that. That and the usual exercises to relieve the back and not putting in very long sessions cutting firewood with a heavy chainsaw! P.S. If it gets really bad, try hanging upside down! It works a treat!

[@WoodMaxxPower]

Thanks for the feature, Josh! Keep it up!

[@KcPenguins]

Thank you for showing all of us

[@risusrules]

I blew out my back in the military - smashed into a 50 cal and whiplashed back over the top of a hardtop hummer. The ONLY bed I can sleep on is a SleepNumber! It's great to be able to get into bed and set it firm if I need it that night or drop it soft if that feels better. Other SleepNumber sleepers ask me, "What's your number?" Mine is anywhere between 25 and 90, it depends, LOL. I'm a big boy myself; 6'4" and 365 lbs.

[@LANTHENS]

I hate he said that about UPS drivers . You take 100 stops on a truck in 100 degree heat , and the company won't even let you install a fan . You have to deliver all your packages that day . And have to make pickups too . You are setting your on pace . UPS is wide open all day . Try it .

[@bronco797]

I appreciate the men and women in brown.They make my life easier and. Keep the country moving. Happy for them.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I do too....but what I don't appreciate is any man/woman that is hired on to do a job, knows the requirements and then starts a culture of complaining and whining about the weather conditions that they knew they were hired to work in. Ya can't complain about an outside job being hot, cold, wet, dry or windy...or the fact that it's physical. It's what ya signed up to do, it was in your job description and on the application. That's what I'm saying....just as I can't complain and demand AC on my farm...nor can a roofer demand it on the roof. Work smart, work hard...hydrate and if ya don't like the job....move on to a position that's more suitable to ya. That's what I'm saying, am I wrong?

[@timbervisions]

The mattress I found best for me (I need firm) is called "The plank" and it is designed to be able to be flipped. One side is firm, the other is extra firm. I'm a big guy like you, 6'5" and 350 pounds. This thing gives the support. And being able to flip it and spin it gives more options to keep it from wearing out. Hope this helps you out brother.

[@ch47insp]

When you pour bar oil into your chainsaw, turn the bottle on it’s side with the cap opening at the three or nine o’clock position and you have a little more control of the liquid coming out. Excellent video content. I love watching you build your farm.

So, had back pain for years. My aunt had me try something her chiropractor told her of. Hyaluronic acid. The umary version from Amazon has stopped 100% of my pain from bareback rodeo injuries. I won’t have believed it but I have it a try and within 48 hours I was completely pain free. The label is in Spanish… but it works

Taken back by word of a disagreeable UPS drive ... very sad to hear my driver is made of Gold (!!) an important part of the fabric of our area

[@alh9338]

I'm 6'2" and skinny. All my life I was told to use a hard matress. Funny, I switched to a soft and am still in a sleep coma when I wake up now. No more pain too! 🍻

[@KAM-zi9zl]

Don’t knock another man’s job Yes delivery driving isn’t the same as concrete, but don’t run down someone for asking for trucks to have AC. The UPS executives aren’t doing physical work, bet your butt they got AC in their offices

[@ClickinChicken]

It's got a gas pedal.. lol I have to change my oil on the Artic Jetta this weekend (W, TR). UPS Driver is a tough job, especially in the city! They have to push reset button everyday. I was a 'driver helper' Holiday seasons three years. One of the differences is their job isn't as adventuresome as yours! WOoo!

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

hey my man...I'm not knocking the job at all...but it's not harder than being a roofer, concrete worker, fence builder and countless other jobs that require long, hot manual labor out in the sun, not hopping out, unloading and getting back in the seat in the wind.....sad fact is that most people never see hard work...therefore they delivery driver is the only exposure they have to "outside" work....demanding an AC in a truck that has the door opened every 4 mins seems kinda silly...be like me demanding an AC unit on my side by side lol...Well...I guess I could get one for big $$$

[@jstnwebb1997]

I have converted 99% of all my tools to electric, the more equipment you have, the less you enjoy working on it, I am a high tech person by nature, but I don't have time to constantly maintain and repair my gas equipment anymore. I want to just use my tools, get the work done and get on to the next thing. My electric tools are already over 5 years old and still not wearing out so far. Mostly EGO, Dewalt, and green works equipment, I am planning on replacing my lawn tractor with an electric one this year too.

Try the purple mattress look it up its really cozy

[@ralphturner3798]

UPS drivers are not cry babies. They work all day long 5 or 6 days a week, usually in trucks that do not have air conditioning. You work on a hot day for a few hours, then get in your air-conditioned truck and then go home to your air-conditioned house. There's no comparison.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I agree that they work hard, but they are in and out of the truck all day long, in the wind with the door open....there's been a bunch of stuff on the news about the "poor delivery drivers not having AC" ...I'll tell you what's bad, sitting in the AC and then going out into the heat....v/s working outside all day and acclimating. You don't see me in a pickup cab with the AC on here do ya? How bout the guys out there building the highway on the blacktop? Don't hear them crying about work conditions do ya? You get a job as a UPS driver, you know what you signed up for...just as I do with the farm....hydrate, eat right, be smart and dont be hungover lol

[@rayphillips1152]

That all you do is put people down

[@SCraig1966]

They are industrial athletes. I have seen more than a dozen in my career get admitted to the hospital for either he exhaustion or heat stroke. They may have signed up for it, but is improving your working conditions a bad thing? You're still not plowing with a horse are you? UPS has been in business for well over a hundred years, air conditioning has been around for a while in vehicles. If it drops the temperature of that cab, from 110 to 105, it's an improvement. You're using a nice brand new electric tractor to lift that roll of hay, I know you think that's heavy work. But I don't see you using a winch system to lift it. Of course this generation is a lot different than the ones in the past. But that's not to say there's not hard working ones still out there. But you do you, and others can do themselves.

[@jeffreyvictor3678]

Good work Josh! This is the content I like to see. I can agree with you on the electric tractor if it is truly being recharged by solar. I am a big believer in using solar whenever possible!

[@bluemule3891]

Hey Beau, Original Mattress Factory, we have one and it is old school, double sided, flip turn and rotate for long life. The only way electric works is if you get the recharges from solar, wind, hydo, nuke, geo. You have solar, and plenty of space for the panels, and batteries, you are golden for years to come, if I had the space I would do the same. Safety gear, ask someone who has lost an eye, that's all about that. The issue with electric is that some folks have been deriding electrical advances for years, anyone who thinks that an incandescent bulb is just as good as an LED, "there are none so blind". By the way where is the Grass Fed Beef already Blue Mule Wake Forest

[@natevanlandingham1945]

How much more was the purchase price of the tractor? What's resale potential. Over a 25 year life how many battery packs and at what cost would they cost to replace compared to a diesel tractor and the maintenance of said diesel of comparable 25 year period. I'm an economic type guy and want to compare this stuff to make a decision. Again if electric makes sense I don't have a problem with it. That said I hate that I went the electric golf cart route now that I'm at the end of the batteries life. Wish i would of kept the gas one I had and just replaced the engine in it. I would be money ahead at this point.

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

If you've got a working diesel, use it. Unless you have the figures to show you would really improve productivity, reduce costs or have some other reason to get a new tractor then you don't need to consider this tractor. If you need to buy a new tractor then you may want to consider this. I'm not saying you should get an electric tractor, or even that you need to consider it, but there's nothing wrong with looking and seeing what is possible. Most importantly this is only the beginning. There will be more electric tractors in the future. And is this one doesn't suit you then the next time you need a new tractor there may be something that will fit your use better.

[@davidmc8110]

It takes a lot of resources to make an electric vehicle, for that matter it takes a lot of resources to make a vehicle with all those electronic components, and it adds a lot to repair costs. They make it expensive on the low end to operate fuel powered equipment, but once alternatives, and too many add-ons, have to be repaired, or recycled, then it's arm and a leg time. Plus if you have a small problem with any number of electronic components it disables the whole vehicle or makes it operate inefficiently. We're fed lots of propaganda, but cutting through the nonsense, we used to call it spending a dollar to save dime.

I'd love to get a Electric tractor, i'm guessing there will be a lot of options within the next 5 years from all the main players, also having solar on your home/shed is a no brainer, such a quick pay off period with rising power prices and almost free power until something fails, but overall electric motors are powerful, and this size is perfect for the smaller farms. Diesel will always have its place, but i'm looking forwards to changing over to electric. hopefully we see a PTO option that allows stationary use and reversing in the near future.

​@StoneyRidgeFarmer the title to your video. You have no clue about the position of a UPS driver. Their day normally starts before yours. Sit in a truck, in the middle of July and I guarantee you wouldn't be so disrespectful to parcel workers. I'm a long time subscriber and you have become very bitter amd condescending lately.

[@matthewstiles3963]

My only question is how much does a new battery for the tractor and how long are they supposed to last? You make a great point on the cell phone everyone has one but I can replace it reasonably when it starts getting slow to charge and quick to discharge but I'm guessing the battery for something like that is going to be thousands of dollars. Yes in the time the batteries should hopefully last the fuel savings will offset the cost some but charging will offset some savings for some. If a sole tractor and used frequent you'll be running it during charging hours so will need to get plugged in. For your purposes there it is perfect though. Let it charge all day and use it for 15-20 minutes. I totally get it but like the automobile from the horse and buggy still needs some refinement. You and Tractor time with Tim both have these and am anxious to get real world feedback on battery life doing different things. I personally have 7 different tractors and far fewer acres than you an obsession really but each tractor has it's place and in a compact setting I believe these tractors hit the mark but in say an 70+ hp tractor you need the weight and more reliable power of the diesel engine. Just my thoughts. In no way bashing on you have been a loyal fan for years.

[@sandpine]

They make a 70hp tractor. It has a more narrow frame designed for vineyards and orchards. That one has a swapable battery pack for $18k, so I recon the 25hp battery would be about $6k…. But it should last about 10 years so perhaps that price will come down by then.. especially since they are using lithium iron phosphate batteries.

I think it comes down to price that’s all.
