That sounds like an exaggeration to me ...
I'm pretty sure they have been able to document their claims, knowing that they would be called on that figure.
Yup - lemme dig out my pocket-change and buy one of them puppies.
I know what you mean 1st I couldn't afford the taxes on one of them.
This type of article just shows that this technology is viable, if we just keep trying it will come to pass.
Very cool, and what a sweet lookin' roadster she is!
I'd drive one!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd drive one really fast. Very nice looking. Now if only Ford would do it, too. Maybe the exhaust smells like french fries or KFC??
Their web page.
Wonder if it could run on McDonalds hamburger grease now that ee knowk they use cellulose sondoes Burger King and I believe the third might have been Wendys. Celullose wood fiber or bamboo or the like. Anything to save a buck. Fda wants to treat us like termites. McDonalds might should change their image to a termite and refuling spot for this beautiful car. Cellulose might screw it up. Wonder how our digestive track works on paper/cardboard.
