Abstract
Current (2002) price data and standard relationships for tractor costs including fuel, repair and maintenance,taxes, insurance, and housing, and capital investment were integrated to estimate tractorspecific cost ($/kWh). Theseestimates serve as benchmarks to determine competitiveness of new, forsale units, as well as leased or rented units. Afactorial approach was used to generate cost projections, from which empirical estimating functions were generated. Withfuel included, a simple empirical function estimated specific tractor cost was within $0.0045/kWh or 0.75% of the projectedvalue 90% of the time.
