I want one of those cheap Chinese electric minivans with at least one solar panel too many on the roof.

I want to pack water and drive through the dessert running on solar and stopping for a few days to recharge.

I don't really know what solar punk is.

    that sounds about right. I had a Nissan e-NV200 for a while, put a few hundred watts of solar on the roof, a buffer LiFePO4 battery inside, and an inverter and granny cable. I could charge it to full in a couple of days. VERY cheap to run but it wasn't practical with other aspects of my life so it sadly had to go. It's very doable if you're on your own though, for sure. There's not a lot to go wrong either, they're pretty reliable
