Let Nothing stand in Your way !! I Own a 97 Jeep . Put 7 gal. Gas in it runs good Need to go some were Add 7 more ! ( At $3.33 per.Gal.) lol "wold it get me to work and back ? thats all it would have to do . " But price may be too High
Just out of curiosity, what will it cost to completely charge up a car per day ?? I t could end up being the same as buying a couple of gallons of gas, the way gasoline has climbed recently!!! And I'd imagine THEN the electrical utility companies will see their opportunity to raise the price of supplying us with electricity!!! No end to to the SCAM CYCLE!!!!!

Stop thinking about plugging-in to AC electricity altogether. AC is DEAD. Stop thinking about recharging batteries. It’s taken big business 30 yrs to but LED’s in tail lights. Yet, American autos used fiber optics in the 60’s (for light transfer – but they still used it (no miniature bulbs and LED’s back then)).
THINK Low voltage DC, along with DC “engines” (not motors), nanotechnology, rechargeable DC Solar cells (remember solar is already DC – converting to AC (as in your home) is, and was always silly), AND eliminate ALL gasoline engines – if you need hp use a TDI veggie diesel. YES, Mr. Diesel’s engine was designed to run on peanut oil (but it’ll run on palm, corn, or anything that will burn), AND IT WAS NEVER INTENDED TO RUN ON GASOLINE. Everything you've ever bought, came to you via a Diesel, and every industrial/commercial facility has a Diesel backup generator. It's time to domesticate the diesel.
LET’S RECAP:
TDI Veggie Diesel/Electric/Solar Hybrid - I'd buy it, and so would you! Get me from A to B, I'll worry about style later.
“Like a weekend in T.J.; it’s cheap, but it’s not free” (Steely Dan)
"I'd buy it, and so would you!" Speak for yourself, idiot. Give me a '65 Mustang Fastback any day over any piece of dung you make reference to.

How's about a TDI Veggie Diesel/Electric/Solar Hybrid that "looks" like your mustang? Better yet, how's about a DC Motor drive shaft "assist" that'll help your V8 RWD get 40 mpg city? That's right, once you get up to speed, the DC motor kicks-in, you go into neutral and the alternator runs the DC motor - you're cruising at 60 mph on a DC motor (while ideling @ around 8k rpm.
I got to admit though, a 65 "Fastback", that's rare - I'll have to look that one up.
Correction: never intended to run on "PETROLEUM PRODUCTS"
