If they could be obtained that inexpensively, you can be sure that insiders and mechanics will snap up any good vehicles and simply throw in new i.c.e. motors for resale, but the gov. tracks the titles on each 'clunker', so it would be hard to title it...at least that is my op...

The RAV4 is lighter and has a 50 KW motor. The S10 is much heavier and has an 85 KW motor I think. So it uses more electricity to get around. The RAV4 uses fans to cool the batteries. The S10 used a heatpump which uses much more energy. The batteries on the S10 do not have the...
