Talk:Bluesmobile
Electric Generator / Electric Substation
I have seen the extended edition of the film and the compartment in which Elwood parks the bluesmobile is not an electric generator. Instead, it appears to be an electric substation and/or VAr compensator station. I have updated the article to reflect this, although I did not mention the VAr compensator bit in the article itself as I feel this is overly technical for the article, and many electric substations include VAr compensation capacity.

The Bluesmobile Gets Charged?
As I mentioned in the previous section, I have watched the original and extended editions of the Blues Brothers many times. I do not recall hearing Elwood claim that the Bluesmobile gets charged from the substation (or generator) in either version of the film. If you know of a version of the film in which this is mentioned, could you please provide details? Alternatively, if this was mentioned by "Elwood" outside of the film itself, please update the article text to reflect this. I will give it a couple of weeks and remove the text from the article if no objections are made.
