I saw this inwards the parking lot of the hotel where I'm staying. Inspection: yep , it's the chassis of an early on 1970s VW , amongst motor as well as transmission inwards place. The motor appears functional. It's connected to the gas cans. Yet , this is a trailer. Why? (Hint: it's parked adjacent to a novel Toyota CRV electrical car.)
Answer: The possessor has a prissy novel Toyota CRV electric. He extolled the virtues of the electrical , its greenness , as well as the taxation breaks as well as gratis charging options. But , it exclusively has a 120 mile arrive at , as well as sometimes he needs to displace longer distances on the freeway. This is Utah , later on all.
So... the VW trailer. When inwards demand , he puts the trailer inwards fourth gear , as well as turns on its electrical system. The bound is stuck sum open. He pulls it to larn going seat , seat put put... Then , the trailer pushes the auto along. What if he needs to tedious down? No employment , he hits the regenerative brakes on the Toyota , as well as then straight off the VW is likewise charging upward his batteries!
American ingenuity is however alive!
I did non inquire if the highway patrol was aware of only how the trailer functions. Or the DOT , EPA , NHTSA , etc. etc.
