EV Conversion Spotted in Jacksonville:

I was on my way to work today driving on I-95 when I caught up to a guy doing 60 and thought ‘Man what a slow driver’. Then, I saw that he had no tailpipe. I rolled down my window and listened for the tale-tell sounds that should have eminated but heard nothing. Trust me, I know from experience what happens w/out the muffler/tailpipe and it doesn’t sound pretty. EV’s exist in Jacksonville after all!!! Anyways, it was a Nissan pickup and the guy didn’t look too concerned that he was driving 5 MPH slower than the speed limit, but neither would I.  
Rock on dude whoever you are!🙂

This is our humble contribution. 1968 1500 beetle with a 10kw 96 volt forklift motor and lithium ion batteries.

Getting about 12km per day charge out of those solar panels, but admittedly they are way too heavy, will have to get some marine panels and mount on a lightish board.

She gets up to 85km/h and goes for 80km. Dream to drive, great acceleration up to 50km/h.
