Cars that run for free

Darrell Dickey has a Toyota EV that he recharges using solar power from the roof of his home. Thus, it runs for free. Maybe someday soon there will be hundreds of thousands of solar-powered EVs. It could happen.

  1. Could you turn me on to the source of those free solar panels, Bob? I don’t have an EV, but I can find plenty of other uses for free electricity.

    Ah, well there is that…

    These new ‘free’ PV panels come with a hefty rebate/tax credit which makes them a lot more attractive than those old 32 watt ARCOs I spent $420 each to test … I, for one, don’t have anything else to do with my excess electricity except power a vehicle … where can I get a Daryle Dickey Toyota EV?
