Why I want to do this

You might be asking yourself why I would want to be spending time and money to convert a late model vehicle to pure electric. The main reasons I am doing this is

1. Learn a few things - about all sorts of things like mechanical, electrical, fabrication, etc.
2. Have a vehicle that does not directly contribute to our environmental problems like internal combustion engines (ICE) vehicles do.
3. Save money on gas. It is cheaper per mile to run on electric than gas, although actual savings are negated by initial investment I am still hoping over time I will come out ahead.
4. Meet people w/ similar interests. I plan on joining the Electric Auto Association (EAA).
   
5. To have a hobby that gets me away from my daily stress.

Well now you know!
