I can put as much as 70 miles in a day with rolling terrain without much chance for opportunity charging. So I would need a 140 mile range a top speed of 60 mph. A heater of some kind. I can make it without the AC. I figure the money I save in gas will make up for battery replacement when the time comes. Finish product under 10K. The trick is getting the money to get it in the first place.
