Greetings guys n gals!
My name is William and the last many weeks I have been obsessed with the idea of building an electric vehicle. Ive read numerous websites, and a couple of books ("Build your own electric vehicle-Bob Brant) (Convert it! Micheal Brown)
My IDEAL goal is to have a highway friendly care (top speed atleast 70) and the more range, naturally the better. The perfect range would be 100.
That being said, after much reading I know that is a very tall order to fill...but is it possible/somewhat practical? What components would be needed? I have a hard time determing which brand of product is better than the other.
I am also not sure as to convert a truck or a car first. Truck more space, car lighter, etc etc. I read the other thread on the same question. I am a car man, but I would rather drive the truck if it met the above criteria. Which would have a better chance of reaching my goals? Car vs. Truck
I am going to pick up the donor vehicle first, and start ripping stuff in hopes of curbing my excitment.
Sorry, I feel like I am throwing alot of information out there at once, and if I am not 100% clear, please let me know and I will clarify the best way I can!
Many Thanks!
