Joe,
I have been looking to purchase an EV. I don't think I would want my VX converted to electric. Too heavy. I would suggest converting a small light pickup. A solid bed cover makes the ideal surface for solar collectors.

I want a (bio) diesel VX!

FYI: Nearly new EV Ford Rangers are now being dispersed to the public rather than crushed. There is a dealer in CA installing refurb battery packs and selling one or two a month until they are gone. There are a hand full of states where Ford will service them. They had spotty reliability but might be great for someone ready to take on the challenge.


Maugan,
Is this your three wheeler?

These just went on sale to the public. I have driven the Myers' version and they are a blast. They were once known as the Corbin Sparrow and some were powered by v2 motorcycle engines. The new version will set you back nearly $30K so I don't think they will sell too quickly. They do, however, run on Optima batteries so replacement batteries will be readily available.
