    200 MPG car? - goverment cover up?

    i came across somtime intresting with the rising gas prices and all

    video for thouse who dount like to read - http://documentaries.ws/1/e107_plugi...hp?content.451

    the guy in the video web site - http://www.himacresearch.com


    video is realy intresting, it you are too lazy to click, it talks about a super carburator that can get upto 200 mpg on a car, and how evrytime someone came up with an invention that would triple the mpg usage they would get shut down 1 way or another.

    Demand drives economy. If everybody had cars that did 200mpg then we'd all be in more trouble than you think.

    We have plastics that are hard AND lighter than steal, and dont cost all that much more than steel

    Yet which do we make cars out of

    If we all had ultralight cars, the MPG would be alot higher and the cars themselves would be alot safer...

    We live in a world of idiots m8, deal with it. Or become an engineer and make your own car ^__^

    The ozone would be under more threat than before. Just means fossil fuels would last longer - meaning the amount of pollution increases more than 10 fold. Cars still create waste, this invention just means petrol prices would plummet.

    Edit: Robert, how would a car made of plastic be safer than a car made of steel?

    i know i have to deal with, thats why i'm gona get a moped that gets 100 mpg :p
    but if people knew that there was technology like this out there they would start asking questions and this might force the companies to take action, they oil companies just want money, they are concerned about the green paper they get instead of the green grass

    i heard a story once and i doutn know how much of it is true but here it is:
    there was a guy in umm i think in the uk, he bought a regular ligtht bulb, and after 60 years it was still running, so he had some on come to his house to check it out, and they ofered him alot for it, but he refused, he found a story is that the company made 100's of thouse light bulbs that lasted for quite a while, but soon destryed them becouse it would ruin their business.



    smo, what about the electric cars that never made it on the market that run for a few 100 of miles before they needed to be recharged

    Actually the lighter the car the less safe you are...(the person driving it that is) because the lighter it is, it just becomes a sardeen can.. (no clue on the spelling)

    As in itll crush up? No

    There are types on plastic that are ALOT stronger than you think...

    Cars made out of plastic would be hell fast, and probly wouldnt stay on the road as well, but i guess you could use aerodynamics to fix that

    The technology is there. Has always been but it's not going to happen anytime soon. It's not just the oil industries but also the US government suppressing it.

    Simple as. The oil companies will loose billion of dollars. So what it has to do with the US government? Oil is only sold in dollars. So if the oil industry takes a big hit so does the US goverment because all the money around the world that is spent on oil has to go through the US.

    Simple as... You'll need to wait for a non-US allied contry to produce one. The thing is... The non-US allied contries that can afford the development of them are also where teh oil is. So there is little hope in it.

    Not really. Plastic and be stronger then steel or aluminum. So the only bad point out of light cars is control. Lighter cars are harder to control in extream weather.

    Doubt very much it will make it. A larger company will probally buy them out and it will never see teh light of day. Has happend before.

    Aerodynamics don't help in extream weather. ;)

    yeah cause all air goes when it starts to rain :p

    If you have spoilers etc forcing your car onto the road, weather wont change that too much

    Were talking about high speeds btw, low speeds itd be fine, and the acceleration would OWN xD

    Sure your not gonna go much over 60, but then generaly you dont NEED to :p and most driving i do personly is inner city, ie max 30 anyway so itd be good for then.

    Id like to see a monorail type system, where you drive onto the track, the car clips itself to it and goes as fast as it can till it sensors a car infront. If the car is so light your get alot faster speed as long as its not gonna take off >_<

    no they dont... where exactly are you getting all your info from?
    electric cars exist and people use them... hybrid cars exist and people use thoes too (electriciy + gas cos electrity cannot go far)

    its not a government conspiracy, its a fact of the business world: big copanies buy out smaller companies. they buy em out, use their ideas and come up with better and more versatile things.

    think 1 second about where it gets it energy from to be rechared, YES thats right power plants
    so if whole the world would use electric cars the fossil fuel consumption by powerplants will skyrocket to unknown hights, and therefor the polution will too

    You do realise how much a light car slips and slids on wet and icy roads? A lightweight plastic car wouldn't stay on it. First icy curve and you're off the road.

    Also the accelleration would suck. You need weight to force your car on the ground so your tires don't spin. ;)

    I coubt that very much. For much added energy it would be idle to use Nuclear energy. They produce far much more power then conventional methods for a slightly more start up cost. In the long run they pay for themselves since they do not require a constant supply of fossile fuels.

    Futhermore fusion is being developed. The Chinese has it nearly completed. By 2008 the first one should be done. Seeing the Chinese are doing it you know that countries like the US and UK are already in production on it also and will probally come out with it sooner.
