Hey didn't you guys hear about those cars they are trying to release that run on WATER? That's what is getting me through this gas hype. Bleh..
But yeah..8 oz of water, can take you I think (If i remember correctly 100 miles)...
WOULDNT THAT BE AWESOME?!
I seen it on the news once, it's not very practical though, as it will take a long time for these cars to come out.
But I can dream right?

Yes!!! I have the video clip on my desktop. The guy who came up with it is now going to congress to get the vehicle approved and I believe its already patented.
There are a lot of modifications that need to be done to vehicles, so with assembly lines we're probably looking at 3-5 years down the road for these vehicles.

I wonder how much MORE the cars are going to cost though.

Sooo expensive! It makes me glad to drive a small car! It's 2.71 in my part of Texas, and apparently that's cheap! I love my hyundai accent. Still it went from filling up with $12.00 to filling up with almost $30.00. That's a huge increase. Also, using water as fuel makes me a little nervous. Considering how scarce oil is becoming (comparitively), I'd hate to see water become a hard to find commodity. Eeek! Perhaps that is just my paranoia shining through.
