If he did it to challenge himself and for the fun of it then cool. If he did it to save $$ on gas then hes stupid cause the cost of the project is more than he would of spent on gas for years to come.

he probebly did it to prove to people that it could be done and electric cars can be practicle. if people keep doing things or a company picks it up, develops it to be more efficent and practicle. then maybe he would feel better about himself for being the nerdyest hippy ever. :P
