    The Gen 3 has about as much hp as Polaris. I like you bought a 2024 gen 2 75 hp the Gen 3 is pushing 90 hp

      No. Unfortunately I am incapable of supporting that type of machine, yet. There are uses for gasoline powered machines due to the ease of infrastructure. Carry gallons of fuel with you!
      In fact, I use a gas powered chainsaw for my milling. I suspect there will be other things. Propane for example is an excellent fuel for long term storage and it's terrific for cooking.
      I do intend to build the infrastructure needed to support an electric ATV and electric snow vehicles as well as cooking. That takes a lot of kilowatts which is challenging to carry around with you.
      Gasoline powered machines are not fossils yet AND they, in general, still produce more HP per CC but the applications where you 'must' use gasoline are shrinking.
      I have attempted to use my ryobi 18 inch 40v chainsaw to mill with and failed. The failure wasn't due to lack of power but rather heat. In order to mill with electric you will need more batteries and more patience and it will be somewhat slower, but it can be done. My personal attempts make that clear.
      In a grid down situation a sound and robust battery powered arsenal of tools is a force multiplier.
