I've thought about making a business that makes drop in electric kits for popular vehicles. So you could take an older worn out vehicle and refresh it with full electric. It would probably cost $20k or so, but that's much cheaper than a new car.

It's called retrofit. I would love to see the price go down but it's definitely a challenging task.

Yeah, its already a growing industry I have my eye on. I would love to just electrify my gas guzzler.
