[Elecraft] KPA500 mobile?

[brian]

In the old days, cars didn't have computers.  Getting away with running 
a KW worked. Today may be different.

Nobody seems to be concerned about crashing/killing the computer(s) 
running the whole car.  Could lead to a really dangerous situation.

Don't know what the replacement cost for the motherboard/peripherials of 
a car computer system is.  My guess: big bucks.

What current experience is there out there?
