I just have always thought one is better than none. Road trips are hell if you run a deep cycle, especially with chargers pounding and the stereo up. Of course, an aero tonneau cover with a huge solar panel would be incredibly useful, if not indispensable. Could you make an alternator attach to an auxiliary source of power, like a Sterling engine? A hybrid running on a sterling engine during the day would be fantastic.
