The Unimog has a blown tire so the Lightning was put into service hauling sap from the bush to the sugar shack.

Tractor dumped the injector pump last fall. After sitting all winter, we got around to installing a rebuilt pump and getting it running today. I used the Pro Power to run a battery charger and air compressor.

I grew up on a farm and have long contended these EV trucks are perfect for farms. Use cases like this are why. Thanks for sharing! Would love to know how it goes going forward!

One thing I noticed - I can drive up a lot closer to deer before they get spooked. Guessing the lack of engine noise provides some stealth.

And for the cattle and other livestock I really want a gate mode where I can get out open a gate and have the truck go through

Heck yeah!

And follow along as you walk/work a fence.

This deserves it's own thread!

I'll throw a few on the fire from a trip we took hauling a car hulk to Philly and back (30 miles west of DC).

Empty trailer on the way back.

Picked up a couple of 4' x 8' sheets of plywood. NBD at all. I thought it was going to stick out further because I'm spatially challenged and didn't think of doing the simple math...

Picked up a load of compost from the city facility. Happened to downpour towards the end and turned into a total mess.

Got the Tri-toon out. Getting it ready to drop off at the Campground. Boat season is getting close!

I am superbly envious of said Unimog!

Got 6 yards of dirt for some custom raised garden beds I made last year for the wife.

How many trips? Load weight? I will admit to exceeding the 1,673 limit by 700 or so, for a short distance and time.

 

[Blochead21]

3 trips. My combined weight is over 2100lbs to haul for the truck. I estimated about 900-1000lbs per yard of the dirt since it’s been dry here locally. Luckily the nursery is only a mile down the road.
