Re: [EVDL] Prius pickup anyone? and RV Extension?

[Robert Bruninga via EV]

And I had to fight Maryland State inspections.  They failed it on about a
dozen counts..
I hit the roof and showed them in the LAW that I was compliant on every one
of those p oints.
Duh, I read the law and built to conform.

THe cheif state inspector said, "well that is just the way we do it".  ANd
I said, ok, lets go see the Governor!

Apparently they have been making up their own rules and interpretiations of
the rules much narrower than they are actually written.
THey backed down and passed it.

IE, in Maryland a wood bumper is allowed by law.  Must be 3" thick of
hardwood.  Mine was laminated from 4 layers of 3/4" Oak from old pallets.
They wanted solid, but I said that laminated wood layers is stronger than
solid.  ANd had the engineering proof...  passed... etc...

Bob, your woodwork on the Prius is beautiful. I have never seen anything

Re: [EVDL] Prius pickup anyone?

[Jay Summet via EV]

This pickup was next to my truck at Maker Fair Orlando last year, it was 
really nicely done. His only issue was that the battery was right under 
the black bedliner, so he had to route cooling air to the battery with 
fans and plastic tubes.  Unfortunately, I heard that it has since gotten 
into an accident and was totaled.

Subject: [EVDL] Prius pickup anyone?

I have a 2014 Prius hatchback that ended up the creme filling in a California 
freeway Oreo, IE: it got hit hard in the rear and driven into the vehicle in 
front. Looks like the insurance company is going to total it as the right rear 
quarter panel was driven forward enough to make the right rear door stick and 
the rear panel in front of the bumper is toast. Rear damage otherwise is bolt 
on stuff like bumper and right tail light. Front damage is mostly just the 
bumper cover, radiator and core support. No airbag deployment. Car was in 
beautiful condition and only has 35K on it and still runs and drives fine. 
Depending on what the insurance company wants for the buy back I was thinking 
of fixing it but while looking at it the thought crossed my mind that it might 
be cool just to lop off the back behind the front doors and make a light duty 
pickup out of it. Anyone else done anything like this and might have 
suggestions as to what kind of a little mini truck bed might work? Or 
suggestion  s where I might source crash parts for this mess? Rock Auto has the 
radiator and the bumper bits but not much for the rear panels I would need if I 
fix it back to original. Dach.

When you put a link in an email, enclose it in less-than and

recognize that it's a link, and not break it up.

Subject: [EVDL] Prius pickup anyone?

I have a 2014 Prius hatchback that ended up the creme filling in a
California freeway Oreo, IE: it got hit hard in the rear and driven into
the vehicle in front. Looks like the insurance company is going to total
it as the right rear quarter panel was driven forward enough to make the
right rear door stick and the rear panel in front of the bumper is
toast. Rear damage otherwise is bolt on stuff like bumper and right tail
light. Front damage is mostly just the bumper cover, radiator and core
support. No airbag deployment. Car was in beautiful condition and only
has 35K on it and still runs and drives fine. Depending on what the
insurance company wants for the buy back I was thinking of fixing it but
while looking at it the thought crossed my mind that it might be cool
just to lop off the back behind the front doors and make a light duty
pickup out of it. Anyone else done anything like this and might have
suggestions as to what kind of a little mini truck bed might work? Or
suggestion  s where I might source crash parts for this mess? Rock Auto
has the radiator and the bumper bits but not much for the rear panels I
would need if I fix it back to original. Dach.
