Default A car that gets 8000 MPG!

With a 35cc, single cyclinder engine, it's 0-60 time will be a yawn. However, with that type of technology, you'd think that 50-75mpg in a practical power plant would be a cinch.? Read about it HERE

it looks like a skateboard with hard top to me.

the good thing is that... if you fart inside, it will convert the air to feed the combustible gas to the engine; therefore gaining an extra 8 miles per puff.

i can finally go to USA with just two galons of fuel.

Could be used as a loveley lawn mower.

But seriously, the need to stop f-ing around and get serious about designing half way appealing cars that get in the 45-60 mpg area. Even a quarter of the way appealing would be a start instead of designing useless money pit one cylinder skate boards that probably is no more practical than a skooter. All that money they waste on science fair projects like could have been put else waere useless instead of going on tV talking about "we don't have the funds." "Hm I wonder why. Where's the million dollar skateboard?"

i can't consider it a car since it hasn't got:

no side mirror
no head/turn lamps
no seat (it has a bed though).
no cup holder
no battery
no wiper
no horn
