Hmmm... I suppose its feasible that running out of gas at highway speed could over rpm or overheat the electric drive system if you try and push...
Kind of surprising, I had thought one of the focuses of the London charge was related to smog emissions. The diesel Yaris puts out 17X more NOx...
The other thing a lot of people look at is a running comparison of the MFD mileage vs. calculated. This seems to be the only way to really figure...
My personal favorite: http://www.hydrogen.energy.gov/docs/cs_central_coal_gasification.doc DOE study says Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are...
Not at all surprising. Search and find what else the "highly respected" publication consumeraffairs.com has to say about the Prius. These guys...
Incidentally, it is an impressive feat, but definitely not the first to pass this mark, and definitely not unique to trucks. Saabnet.com Press:...
Unfortunately, our Priuses do about as much work as 70-80% of the Trucks and SUVs in America. Rob
Make sure your manual fan setting isn't set to "off". If it is, a lot of things, including AC get grayed out. This would not matter when auto is...
There has been a lot of discussion on these issues. You should take the time to do some reading through the past posts here. The bladder is a...

Thanks for posting! Its easy to forget the bottom line. I'll have to add a gallons and $$ saved to my spreadsheet. Rob
Thx :cool: Rob
You don't really have to wonder, there are conversion phev's already out there that have pretty much figured this out. From what I have seen they...
You're right, who spends much of any time commuting anyway :rolleyes: Americans currently commute ~900,000,000,000 (900B) miles per year. At our...
I think this is an often overlooked point. I personally was shocked to find that every single GM alt fuel vehicle has Tier 2 Bin 5 emissions!...
Here's my take. We have no idea what is going to happen. We are entering into a situation that has never before been seen in the time scale of...
I can certainly attest to that, having lived in both LA and Boston. The only difference between LA traffic and Boston traffic is about 65mph....
Isn't it interesting how even 10 yrs later, the myths and misinformation live on. According to the DOE's test data the EV1 NimH specs were:...
