Solectria Owner Profile:

David acquired his 1991 force in early 1999.  It was originally owned by Arizona Public Service utility, and was then sold to Lanette Racine and Kathy Watson a few years later.  When they replaced it with a GM EV-1, David bought it from them.  Reportedly, this is the very first Solectria Force ever built!

At last report, David was upgrading the drive components and battery pack.

Looks like a regular Geo Metro -- But the future is electric!
