Natural gas is the best way to go if you have it in your area, it's cheap and clean.

We only have electricity here, not natural gas.
Also have a well and septic tank, as no public water or sewer here in the country.

Drove 200 miles today round trip with the panel to have a cup of coffee at Tim Horton's in Dryden, trip was also to see if the hole I drilled in the thermostat was enough to bypass but still keep the engine temp running normal. It was 0*C when we left this morning and maintained 95 to 100 degrees on the way down, outside temp reached 10* on the way home but the engine temp fluctuated between 100 and 112 degrees. I think over the winter I will enlarge the hole a bit more for the spring time runs.
