  Quote  It seems to me that, whilst the idea has merit, the idea of replacing existing ICE vehicles in a similar way/use isn't going to work with the technology currently available (or in use). We have ICE's built like barges weighing in the 1000's of kg being used to cart a 100kg human around the place. Most of the commercial EV's seem to be trying the same concept. I don't know the answer but it just seems counterintuitive to me. It's just highlighting the shortcomings of the current EV's.

I really hope the vehicles stay the same as the ICE's have over the last 30 or so years, cars utes and station wagons (enclosed ute's) are this way for a reason, because it works, you can put more people in on some occasions or fill it up with junk as I do, also its safer to have a lot of metal around you for protection from other's
These things should have a separate topic.

I don't want to pollute Trev's thread, I totally enjoy watching the trips and the real world experience,  highlighting some of the issues faced along the way, Keep going Trev.
