Paul & Sabrina's Cheap EV Conversion

[Simy]

Thats a great idea Paul, start gardening, maybe you can get a few thousand acres worth greens all growing and have some Oprah's milling around for your own amusement?

All you really need in addition to the farm is a half baked cause with an even less baked reason sprinkled with a sensationalized.... OK I'm going to quite before I loose more people :/

[MPaulHolmes]

hahaha. I don't think I should talk about having oprah work in a field against her will.

[Simy]

Yeah that might not be so good, I'm not always P.C.

Maybe instead I should be nice and help her loose weight.
All we have to do is glue this: http://tinyurl.com/3l5o3xh to a hat and put the hat on her head...

More P.C. I assume =-D

ha-ha, funny, shame on you Let her alone

[MPaulHolmes]

You are right! From this point I vow to leave her alone. For ever and ever, or until I get the hankerin'.

My wife's aunts and grandma picked cotton. (That's true by the way)

Hey! I sold this car just last week! I built a new controller for it, and then someone bought it for $1700. We payed off our sears card with it. haha. Finally, we got those batteries paid off! But now we don't have them anymore.

Wow, you SOLD the car!?!?!.

The one time I got to go for a ride in it, I was rather impressed.

It kept up with traffic fine, didn't have any trouble with hills, and is a classic to boot!

I did meet a guy from Chicago a few weeks back who built a VERY nice electric motorcycle (105 mph top speed, lithium battery pack) He spent about $10,000 to build it, and was once offered $20,000 to sell it.

I would have sold it! Use the proceeds to build another one and keep the $10,000 profit!

Just wait until Paul builds the ReVolt Dragster!!!!

I think we're going to do another EV conversion. I'm not sure about the car yet though.
