>>>Grove says the nation should consider ways of retrofitting the 80 million low-mileage pickups, sport utility vehicles and vans on the road to make them capable of running on both gasoline and electric power<<< I thought this was an unusual statement, which is why I posted. I will bet he can rewire a table lamp. I won't bet on the lawn mower engine. A retrofit kit might be some form of this - GM's Belt Alternator Starter Mild Hybrid system - en.wikipedia.org A certain amount of room under the hood will be needed. Maybe the whole system can be done as an engine swap - remove old engine, place new engine with hybird system in car, hook up, pay $1200 for labor. $3000 for the new engine, the drive away 3 days later.
