[Cialug] O.T. Who Killed The Electric Car ?

[Dave J. Hala Jr.]

I just measured and it won't fit in the back of my 3/4 ton crewcab 4x4
pickup, so I guess its not for me.

I might be able to shoe horn it in there if I remove the wheel wells
from the inside of the box, or build a platform in the box above the
wheel wells.
