Do you ever think about how ridiculous our petroleum based fuel system is? The crude is pumped from somewhere in the Middle East and then shipped over here in a giant tanker. Then it's refined at some plant in the middle of the country, only to be driven in a gas tanker to be delivered to your local gas station. Then we have to drive to the gas station to fill up. Every single part of the process consumes it's own product along the way.

What if you had a solar panel that fed into a battery during the day, which charged your car overnight at your house? Beast.
