Driving on Sunlight

This blog is more or less a diary of life with an electric car that is charged largely from a home solar array. It consists mostly of trip descriptions, with occasional digressions into car care and interesting new developments in electric driving and solar power. Comments are welcome: please keep them on point and respectful of others’ points of view.
