Okay, so what is biodiesel, exactly? Will it make my car smell like a French fry? And what about fuel cells? I hear they run on hydrogen. Do they produce pollution? How long will an electric car run? And is it true that solar-powered cars won’t work if it’s cloudy? Find out the answers to these and many other questions here:

thanks for sharing
kWell, Steve, I NEED a big truck to haul my horse trailer and pack my camper when I go camping; however, if I don't need to haul my horse trailer or pack my camper, I am happy to drive my '93 Ford Escort that I got used and still gets over 30 mpg, even though it's wearing out with a couple hundred thousand miles on it.
Cool! Thanks for the info!
Thanks for the article.
LOved all the information in the link thanks
It seems that countries like the US and Australia with cheap gas prices tend to drive large vehicles and have a love affair with the V8.
I NEED one because I live in a big country and I drive long distances towing huge loads.
Yeah. Like when? Going on holiday and coming back? Every few years or so?
Get real!
I just read in Autoweek that Porsche has replaced their Carrera line with twin electric motors,capable of doing 70mph in 3.5 seconds. Equivalent mpg is 70. If Porsche can do it, why can't GM and Ford? They are partners with oil!
thanks
Great article!
