It does look as if he is a serious environmentalist; he appears to be running his generator on propane... 
When is Ford going to offer a full solar panel truck body as a sunny climate option? Can perpetual motion be far away?
It's a shame the Government shut down J.C. Whitney back in the 70's when they invented that carburetor kit that allowed your car to run on water...

Huh? JC Whitney is still in business - online instead of catalogue though.
They've been continuously in business since the 1940's and I was getting their catalogues in the mail up until sometime in the 1990's.
You must be thinking of some other company.

Here’s one I saw a while back.
It didn’t appear to be wired up,
Just a Tesla towing a Generator.

My wife has a friend on the east coast. Her friend went on a trip with her guy in an electric car and said the trip took over twice as long as normal because of the need to recharge twice. It sounded like the trip was normally about a 4 hour trip and it took them all day.

Golf carts are the perfect EV. Not used for commuting, never far from charger/replacement, carry clubs/shotguns/beverages, can be driven by "non car drivers, and can get you back to the barn quick if the weather turns bad. Joe
