If you have a hybrid or an electric vehicle with a sun roof, you can try this hack to save both time and money.
It's fairly rudimentary. Simply affix a flexible solar panel inside the ceiling of your car or truck, and then connect it to the main battery. You can also use a charge controller to maximize its efficiency.
I must however include the following disclaimer: passers by might think you're a major nerd if you do this, and criminals might damage and/or steal your vehicle as punishment. So be sure to have decent car insurance.
But if you are willing to take the aforementioned chances, then you can easily save nontrivial amounts of money over the life of your vehicle.
