    Very interesting. I just don't see how it would use less gas? Unless you reprogrammed fuel:air ratio in your cars computer (new cars of coarse) ?

    please note that that is a personal web site, not a corporate or news agency. that's kind of like thinking that things in "the big book of mischief" would work.

    Cool

    Compressed air sounds like a good idea until you figure in all the energy required to stuff all that air into a tank. And the weight of such a huge tank. Range is limited to about 60 miles or so. Very inefficient. Now, liquid nitrogen may be a viable alternative, if it could be easily produced and cheaply contained.

    The best bet for future cars are electric drivetrains, a small battery pack and hydrogen fuel cells. We just have to sit back and wait for the auto makers to get their act together.
