i don't think so. 25 mph and 30 mile range. not to mention that it won't pass safety standards.
its a home made gulf cart, might be ok in a gated community.
kits to convert almost any car to electric have been around for many years.

@all
I remember seeing a few years ago that a really old man, with 60-70 years in electric motor technology, was becoming senile in his old age.
His niece suggested that he build an electric car to keep his mind sharp and occupied.  He was skeptical:  "I don't know anything about cars."

She had a response: "But, you do know about electric motors.  Build me an electric car."

"Okay."

This guy was such an expert, a younger man asked to be his apprentice, so the technology wouldn't be forgotten when the old man finally died.

That's my point.
Big companies won't listen to great tinkerers like the older Members and the avid hobbyists on OU.com

@triffid
The car is an adequate start, I agree.  But, it's an expensive experimental device.  Backfit and refit kits are available to compete with it.  Both concepts are valid.

NEWS NOTE:
A TV financial analyst announced on a news program that 20% of American households at risk of  being foreclosed upon in a few months.
It's worse:
Adjustable rate mortgages are resetting at higher and higher rates, in an ongoing process.

This is potentially dire.

P.S.
I haven't been able to log onto OU for several days.  Honest.
Did anyone else have that problem?
The error message implied "too much incoming blog traffic.  System was overloaded--Forbidden."

This is the one that started it all?
1/3 of all existing home sales are   distressed/short sold/repossessed   houses.  This is bad.

Las Vegas could be down in home prices for years.  And years.

Is there a solution?

Everyone in this article will need to sacrifice, but will they???

The last paragraph in the article indicates the Gov't seems to be un-representative to the people.  They will probably be required to make political sacrifices as well.  But will they?!?!?!

Big M:
   If 2/3 of the people in this country stand up and "DEMAND" it, they have no other
alternative. Bring the assholes to trial, if they stand in the way, take them too. Force
tight regulations on banking practice and keep it in line.
   Now just to get them to move. Hmmmmm.

Right.  You have a strong point in that regard.  That was actually done---after the Great Depression.  More than that:  Regulations against derivative trading were relaxed or eliminated after they were instituted in the (60's or 70's??).  Now the "Credit Default Swaps" are worth more than $1,000,000,000,000,000 !!!!!!!!   Not kidding!!!!!  There's a strong monetary incentive to continue selling derivatives.

They're outnumbered, it's true.  But they have the laws and guns on their side.  They'll also do anything to hold onto what they have now.  A Banzai! charge may be the only thing that will convince then people are serious about starving to death because of them.

After Pearl harbour bombing by the japanese in 1941 concentration camps (10 of them  for about 120000 japanese americans were set up).So from 1942 until the war was over America had placed 120000 of its own citizens behind barbed wire and guns.It could happen again.triffid

True statement triffid. The economic disaster that took place in 2008, millions of us are still feeling the effects. If everyone thinks that was bad, just wait for 2011. After everyone is in worse dire straits from all the extortion fees (TAXES) imposed on us next year, then in 2012, enter stage "Right" and stage "Left", a hand full of political figure heads riding white horses who claim to have the "answer" for every ones dilemma. More than likely, the biggest part of the "answer" will be the announcement of the "New World Order".

The first time I heard about the New World Order was from George H. Bush in a 1992 speech. December 2009, I heard Obama state in a speech, "Hopefully, by next year we will have the stipulations in place for the New World Order."

Wait, the Bushes are Republicans! Obama is a Democrat!    What the.....

After the two parties get done pointing fingers and throwing slanderous accusations at each other on TV, they go have a drink, play a round of golf, and compare portfolios.

I was 13 yrs. old when Watergate took place in 1972. I was shocked because these people were leaders of this country! I made it a point to pay attention to the political world since then, and it saddens me to have witnessed a steady decline in the fortitude and integrity of our governmental administration.

Absolutely.  No two ways about it.  And I'm not getting a COLA(Cost_of_Living_Allowance) from Social Security, this year or next.  No one is!?!?!

Got you covered on that one.  Every intelligent OU Member should be doing the same thing, but quietly.  Mormons like to advertise they stockpile food.  Hungry mobs could storm their houses?!?!

The same thing happened in Eastern Europe during WWII.  You still have a point, I agree.

As I said, Eastern Europe in WWII.  Even the Nazi were and the Al-Qaeda extremists are all descendants of Abraham.  And they point fingers!?!?

They're Apocaypce-lovers and The Collapse could be caused by them if they do enough harm to SW Asia.  There are enough volunteers amongst their populations to do the job.
