Why don't you just start building aftermarket trailers with packaged
gensets, and sell them to existing Leaf owners? BTW, the Leaf's sales
are sucking wind, too. 'You know where their biggest market share is?
In Norway. You could offer a trailer option on skis...


That's silly. Roof rack, roof rack. With a swing-arm wench.


They'd need a new name. With that lump on top, it's not a "Leaf." How
about, "Toyota Dung Beetle"?


Along the lines of swappability, mebbe the Leaf (with no genset) could be
made "genset ready", and when yer too low on juice to get home, have a gas
station (with racks of these gensets of course) plop one on the roof, and
off you go.... hopefully on level ground.... LOL

Mebbe Kidding could wangle himself a second career AND get hisself some
exercise, humping these gensets on Leaf roofs.....
