If I could plug in the house to a great big EV battery pack I could quit using my generator on cloudy days.
Just throw some more panels on my roof and kiss fossil fuel goodbye.

So disappointing that the RAV4 is only 2wd.

India is heading in the right direction. Get off the imported oil and power themselves with energy they already own. Cut the flow of cash out of the country which is being used to buy oil, slosh that extra money around in their own economy.

India is a big boy. It is capable of doing more than one thing at a time….
