My daughters solar powered electric car
On the homestead I like to walk around to do fence repairs and other small jobs, it keeps me in shape and I can listen to the birds and my children as they like to tag along with me most of the time. Now that my children are getting bigger 5 and 2 I can’t carry them and my tools, so I got an idea that has been working very well. I went down to the toys R us folks and bought them a little gator, ride on electric car. 
The thing works great I would buy another one if I needed it very happy with it so far, we have been throught some pretty rough country and I only have to help with a push now and then. My daughters can even carry a few things in the box for dear old dad. The best thing is it is electric and it’s very quiet we charge the battery off our solar panels or wind mills.
I have always wanted an electric car but I’m still waiting for a new kind of battery to power one, I think allot of people are waiting for this new battery.

That is awesome that your daughters can ride around in their electric car and help you with your tools! You sound like my dad, always thinking of cool things. We had a jeep he made for us that we could fit four kids in, BUT we had to push it ourselves! Here’s the link if you care to see it:

I had the movie converted to a DVD and so please excuse the poor quality of the video.
