Awl--

Sent a pdf, which I don't know how to copy text from.

But the key features were:

reconditoined, 5-16K mi.
4 wheel disc/regenerative brakes
Creature comforts--A/C, tilt, airbags, etc.
Nice pickup, 2 door, full bed, white, 1,000+ payload
300 V batteries!!!!  Goodgawd....  NiMH (Nickel metal hydride??)  Pity the
foo' replacing/getting shocked by those, eh?
A so-so 65 mi range.
No top speed is listed, which means it's proly really shitty.

COST:
$30K  !!!!!!  Used!!
Plus....   $600 for the charger!!  Sheeit, at least provide some grease....
Plus shipping from Sacramento.
Plus, plus, plus, I'm sure.
Plus big big big eventual bucks for the 300 V battery, I'm very sure.
Or you could put about 25  12V batteries in series.   :)
Which right there is about $2500-3000.

Guess I'll still be plundering our environment.

The Zenn is much cheaper, uses 6 std 12 V batteries--much less of a PV down
the road.

I've seen Electric S-10 offered for not much more then half that
price.  The downside to all of these is that the range sucks.  Unless
you just want a toy these make no sense.
