You must get many people commenting on how quietly your diesel car idles. Most would guess you swapped in a Chevy LS V-8 engine, until they see the tailpipe gone.

I think it is pretty neat! Can you add solar panels to say the hood, roof and trunk to help with charging?

The real estate for solar panels vs the amount it needs to charge is very far apart. But I am getting solar on my shop and house that will provide plenty of power for the car and more.
