Hello All
Wonderful site to have stumbled across. Am currently doing alot of reading on electric conversion the past few years as I have a real dream of driving an electric vehicle. Dont know if this one would work, but would LOVE to convert my old cargo van to electric. This is a shorty Van with no guts/windows...only the front seats...would like it to be able to tow a hot dog cart.
My mechanical skills are decent, do basic maintenance no problem, am pretty comfortable with tools and have a good surrounding of friends to tap into.
I am hoping to get approx a range of 80k on a charge...This is more than what I use but just as a safety net.
I am willing to invest approx 5-7 Thousand to make this happen.
I havent considered any parts just yet but am hoping to tackle the project next winter, when my hot dog season ends. Would love to pick peoples brains on here.
I have warehouse space and lots of room to work.
If the Van wouldn't work, am open to anything maybe a truck/small suv that could use to haul a hot dog cart and have room inside to throw in our coolers etc.
