This is just some old boy in his garage,doing this who works a day job,only employees are contracted out machining and helper than runs on beer.
j/k I dont know....
If you sold oil and collected taxes per gallon would you put all your effort into promoting it?This car represents a 2/3 cut in profits for anyone assocciated with oil,drilling ,refinement,shipping,gas stations....etc.
There are tons of state highway tax colleted on a per gallon basis,the gas station only makes pennies on the gallon and is sustained from soda and candy bar sales,major impact there?
Actually cracking the gas in the car itself is nothing new as Bob pointed out and has successfully been done,but where is it at?
Technologies such as this represent a major impact to investors and companies,they have to go thru a federal approval standards and thats where the big companies and lobbiests come into play.........
Hypothetically if I had 400,000 invested in oil type companies I would be against this car being promoted simply on the fact that it would affect investments,thats me on a individual basis,how much more of a impact would it have on major investors or groups,technologies like this are like shooting your own foot if you have investments this field.
Does this car actually get the mpg quoted ????????????
On the other hand ,it may make gas more exspensive therefore bringing in more profit,at 8 bucks a gallon and 92 mpg its still cheaper than current price per mile at 30 or 25 mpg,I dunno?????
I also recall a dune buggy that ran on water that was in the news about 15 years ago,he was producing hydrogen on board usuing water,maybe he sold out and its just now hitting the market as hydrogen you buy per gallon,rather than adding water directly to the tank.Think about what effect filling the car with the garden hose would have on America.......same tech ,just selling it to you by the gallon or pound ....to keep this mess moving along....I understand the big picture that there is more to it than money .What would happen if everyone started using this new technology overnight,.....there would be 10 million people unemployed the next day and that would be worse than paying 5 dollars a gallon at the pump.......It would bring society to a halt or a drastic change to say the least.Even revolutionary technology has to be introduced slowly or the effect is worse than no technology.Theres alot of people right now on the planet and they all have to work or the economy ceases,what are we going to do when technology advances far enuff that 50 percent of the world is not working????
The reprocutions of a 92 mpg car are deep reaching and have effects that go far beyond just the auto /oil industry.

I check in everyday and some are better than others. I don't think Brent has anything to do with the forum anymore, but I'm not sure. Hopefully as time moves on the forum will get better.
Where is everybody?
