Off the Grid ~ Hardback ~ Randy Denmon

Only a week after the nation s newspapers were filled with headlines of the first cross-country trip in an electric car, two Louisianans slip quietly across the Rio Grande in south Texas in an attempt to do the unthinkabledrive a factory electric car across seven Third World countries to the end of the road, Panama City, Panama. Without support and armed only with a toolbox, a bag of electrical adapters, and their wits, author Randy Denmon and his friend Dean trudge on through jungles, deserts, volcanoes, rivers, and crater-sized potholes, all the while trying to avoid the drug cartels and corrupt border guards that could mean a quick end to their adventure . . . and their lives. Through it all, the same enormous problem loomed daily: how to charge the car in such a primitive and desolate setting? Despite the numerous setbacks, Randy never lost his sense of humor. "Off the Grid" is as much a spiritual journey as a physical one about two guys who dropped everything for one grand twenty-first-century adventuretraveling back in time in a car that seemed to come from the future."Author BiographyRandy Denmon is a writer and engineer.
