Just for comparison's sake the new hybrid we're going to start building this 
semester is going to weigh around 7000-8000 lbs!  With two GE ecostar ac 
induction motors, about 300 V of Hawkers and a fuel cell from energy 
partners.  Plus all the other goodies that come with a fully loaded year 
2000 surburban.  Its going to be a beast.
