Watched Topgear last Sunday and that prototype Honda was mighty impressive. Maybe the future without oil isn't all that bad after all.

But see, with Bio Diesel, you don't need oil either and still get great mileage. ;) :)

I love electrics, don't get me wrong. But there is zero infastructure and for guys like me that love road trips, electrics will never be viable. At least, no time soon...

Jay Leno had a few interesting thoughts...those electric cars will make it possible to drive around the town...small range isn't such a problem for those purposes! That doesn't mean we won't have any more petrol-powered supercars, they will be here for some joy-riding :)
