Al, > Your car probably sits in a parking lot in the hot sun 8 hours a day while you are at work.

Gas has an energy content of 34.8 million joules per liter, or 9.7 kW-hrs. Per gallon that comes out to 36.9 kW-hrs.

Think about how many square meters of solar panels you will need to generate that amount of energy over eight hours. It's not trivial.
