    Hybrids are rubbish.

    Two engines?

    That isn't a solution to anything - it probably consumes more resources building the electical side of things than you'd save.

    Biodiesel - the way forward. Its fuel you can grow in your garden, and it doesn't add to the ammount of carbon already present in the atmosphere.
    Thanks for all the fish

    "the driving skills that we all have should be less useful," he speculated
    Has this guy ever seen how people drive??? I wouldn't call it skills... And he wants them to have to think LESS while driving?

    I can never see any world Government letting us grow our own Fuel without them getting there mit's on it so they can tax the shit out of it, No way they will let it be free they will loose to much money

    You do realize that the taxes put on fuel are necessary to maintain the roads you drive on, right? And that you obviously could not actually grow the fuel in your garden, because you'd need a processing center as well?

    I loath the day when I can no longer drive myself in a car. I understand a lot of the electronic assist systems, but I still want to steer, to control the car. The future blows.

    Get some sunflowers/ rape seeds - make sunflower/ rape seed oil - put in car.

    Only works with diesel though, but diesels are becoming the most popular power source for average cars.

    Also - you can grow it, and it doesn't add to the ammount of carbon in the atmosphere.

    Why isn't it being used now? Because BP, Shell and ExxonMobil don't have many fields of rape or sunflowers.

    Reminds me of a book I read recently. Where every car on the highway is controlled with a sattelite in space. Drivers don't even know how to use steering wheels. Steering wheels are only used for illegal drag races.

    I heard you can run an engine on Vegetable oil. IMagine that-we wouldn't have to rely on the Saudi's to sell us oil, we could produce it domestically, and it doesn't contribute negatively to the atmosphere!
