In the end I see a three wheeled electric vehicle, however I want to journey though all of this first to show the world different ways to get off foreign oil. I am not above adding a hack frame to make space for batteries and a motor in line with the chain drive. when I get more funding I can build a passenger compartment with two front tires and the electric/ice engines attached behind it. The entire floor compartment could be used as a battery bay to increase range. I would love lithium batteries but as of now I am on a shoestring budget [I already have several kw worth of solar components so they are essentially zero cost to me]
