Yes I tend to agree that buying a used Leaf is a great solution for most of us (I did the 3 year lease), it is also a great experience to build your own project. I have been part of several of these as well over the past 2 decades. I have always liked the prospects of truck conversions. Mostly because they are more useful, but also because they are already designed for additional weight. I also think that conversions have that added "cool factor" when combined with a classic vehicle. (Wouldn't you agree Al?)
