As for the quote, we're talking about a Toyota 4x4 Pickup truck here and it would be lithium batteries and would retain its 4wd and 1/2 ton cargo capacity. There's a company in Boulder, Colorado that sells conversion kits for current hybrids (to make them PHEV) and they've put together a quote to fabricate a few things I'd need to go with (trans plate and so on). Great couple of guys I met a couple of years ago at the Sustainability Fair down there (evolveelectrics.com). This one would linclude LiFePO batteries to sit where the fuel tank and catalytic converter used to be (more or less balancing the battery load on the left and right side at the rear axle). The rest of the batteries would be at the mid-point and the motor, electronics, etc. would be under the hood. To it I'd like to add a propane-fueled generator for longer distance.
I'm working on putting together a Kickstarter to see if I can actually make all this happen. That's why I know. ;)
