I agree with your post, the main issue is electric range when you are talking a give it all she's got setup even with motor assist. If your driving distance is minimal you can get away, if not some type of recovery, regen or recharge should be in the works. I have long thought about putting the front 4wd config onto my dodge to mount an electric motor, to make it electric in town where the milage is half.
Cheers

Either way its gonna be fun. I really think this is something I can do. I hope I can do it. The only thing holding me up right now is money and finding the appropriate electric motor that I can afford.
