I have a 99 k1500 suburban that I am considering converting to all electric. I realize it is kind of the opposite of what most people go for when doing a conversion, but it is available and not my primary vehicle. So why not.
Questions:
Where can I learn about the benefits of different motors? DC vs AC etc...
Are there any other large SUV conversions I could refer to?
$$$ spent will basically be a call it as it comes sort of thing. I'm sure my wife will be unhappy with any expense, but I might be able to get my dad on board.
I'm thinking this will just be a fun around town vehicle that can still tow my boat and plow the driveways. So say 65mph max, 50 mile distance, but still tow 9000lbs. Can that be done?
I have never attempted this before, but I am very mechanically inclined and have plenty of design / fab tools available.
