Why an electric truck?
This project began in April 2005, when I saw an advertisement for a free 4x4 truck in the newspaper. At the time I was reading Michael Brown's book called Convert It! and I decided that I wanted to convert either a 4x4 or an AWD vehicle. Michael Brown's company ElectroAuto has a long list of vehicle models with available plans for making adaptor plates. Since the Toyota Truck was on the list, I went out and got the free truck. I got it retitled and obtained seasonal license tags for it. When I went over to the emissions inspection station, I asked how an electric vehicle would be inspected. At the time, they told me to bring my project in when it was completed.
