What do you take away as being the price premium between a non LFP and these? Are they gouging or is it simply the 2-4 times cost of LFP cells?

well at about 2 x the price of a comparable gas model....???  I think the gas one wins... from what I have seen the neighbourhood kids do with those UTV's I'm not sure electric would stand up...

Clinically insane price!
I really do not understand why these idiots think rural people could afford equipment like that!
For the cash you can get a small diesel 4x4 that lasts longer and can carry real loads and have a lot of cash left over.
Another toy for the rich and brainless :(
