    There are not enough people around that would sink that much money into an old vehicle.

      It depends, if you watch Dave’s Auto Center people will sink that much into just an engine for an old truck. If fuel prices go up and demand for used evs goes up then I could see it as a solid alternative. I would have to target the most common vehicles that are currently on the road and make universal motors and smaller battery segments so that they could be packaged for different vehicles using the same parts.
