What is that thing? Why is that thing? It looks like the vehicles from Aliens. On the windshield, there’s a decal that reads “Apocalypse 6x6.”

    So much this!

    If you’ve got an electric vehicle you can charge it with anything really.

    Solar panels, hydro, wind, a generator, etc

    The perfect apocalypse vehicle load out IMO is an electric car (perhaps even an electric van/box truck), electric dual sport motorcycle, and a bicycle.

      Kind of, but not really. There are specific requirements in order to charge, not hard to meet on grid, but can be difficult in a homemade setup

        Yeah high enough voltage/current is tough unless you have a decent off grid capable home solar setup.

        Most home solar inverters turn off when the grid loses power so they don’t backfeed electricity and kill any linemen.

      Chevy Volt. Runs full electric until it’s out, then uses gas. the only real problem is the 40 mile electric range.
