Solar Concept
I cant see solar power being a great option considering you need sunlight to run on solar power. Not to mention the ammount of space you would need for solar pannels. taking space into consideration, the only logical solar powered vehicle would have to be a hybrid truck. Taking the concept of the Prius Plus and the Prius GT and using Li-ion instead of NiMH, and a diesel engine instead of a gasoline engine. Using the bed as a battery cache, with a solar pannel plated bed cover, it would probably be possible to get up to 120mpg out of a small truck.
