    What To Do With The Gas?

    Without government money Solarcity would have gone under years ago. They had a net loss of $375 million on a total revenue of $176 million last year, not a good sign.

    Hi From Ct...

    I have been a drunken sailor and never drank any oil so, I would appreciate laying off sailors.

    Turbo-charging .9 Liter Elio Engine

    They do sell the ST Fiesta here but it is a 1.6l turbo. I have a 1l 3cly sedan, it makes 125hp and 140lb-ft of torque. In Europe they have tuned the 1l engine to put out 140hp. I also read they now have a version that can output 160hp. I have been averaging 35mpg around town and 46 hwy.

    Very Interesting Concept Car

    They painted it like that so it is harder to see the design features. Many companies do it on new designs. Here is a Lexis example

    Turbo-charging .9 Liter Elio Engine

    My Fiesta is the 1L turbo, and I was told this also when I talked to the service people. They said it is expected to last as a chain would but has less resistance which is why it was chosen over a chain.

    Standard Equipment And Options

    I put an 8 track in my jeep, I had the real stereo in a box I built to fit in the back after I removed the rear seats. I would throw a few Elvis 8 track tapes on the floor and leave the top off all the time and no one ever stole anything out of it.

    Momentum V75 Making Your Driving Experience Smarter And Safer

    I have the same sign. My tortoises weigh 100lbs, not so easy to move.

    Momentum V75 Making Your Driving Experience Smarter And Safer

    I don't want a box sitting on dash, it is an invitation for theft and I do not want to have to remove it every time and get out of my car.

    Does The Government Really Care How Much Gas We Burn?

    It is not the government's job to make things "fair". It is not their job to redistribute wealth.

    Does The Government Really Care How Much Gas We Burn?

    / WHat is a fair share? They already pay most of the taxes. How about the "little guy" who pays nothing and actually draws money out. My niece makes over $7k every April 15th. Why? You should never get out more than you pay in. Many people pay 65-75% of their income isn't that enough?

    Does The Government Really Care How Much Gas We Burn?

    Yes, the government should not be doing it. Look the waste of $192 million that Fisker pissed away. Not to mention how much money the taxpayers lost on solar energy companies over $194 billion. It is not the government's job to prop up companies who otherwise are doomed to failure. Just like...

    Does The Government Really Care How Much Gas We Burn?

    Yes, they are taking far more than they need. Do you like them paying for things like $2 billion so people can have a free phone and internet? Or the National Institutes of Health spent $330,000 to study the lifestyle and health of men who have sex with men and transgender persons in Peru. The...

    Space In The Hood

    The exhaust runs on the outside hence the bulge they could run in the space between the outside skin and the interior plastic piece. They could even mold it into the interior wall

    Space In The Hood

    Why would they do that when they have a side that does not have a door. I am sure it would be much easier to run it there.
