Electric fat tire bikes ?

I am looking at several Fat tired electric mountain bikes for buzzing around the farm, and several trails. The one I am leaning towards is a RadPower Rover which has a rear hub 750W 48V motor with 5 levels of pedal assist, and 7 Shimano gears. It also has a switchable twist throttle for no pedal action, or no pedal assist for pedaling only.

The other bike I am looking at is the Xtreme E-Grizzly with a front wheel 750W 48V hub, so when pedaling, would be 2WD.

I have a compromised lung/heart capacity, and get winded easily (though I am still very active, and normal weight). This bike would get me out there with some excersise, and would allow me to ride local bike paths without having registration/licensing/insurance like I do for my KLR250 enduro...any thoughts ?

BTW, both bikes are in the $1500-$2000 range. Sorry, I have trouble posting links at work.
