Car of the future
« on: November 08, 2010, 08:49:51 pm »

Actually, Honda already has a similar vehicle ready, and so does BMW.  It is now proven we don't need gasoline powered vehicles anymore.  The back room deal with oil companies is to provide them 20 more years and then slowly introduce these cars.  Imagine filling your car up with salt water then using it to power your home with air conditioning and heat. Talk about upsetting the energy market...

Every parent's nightmare. A car so quiet that Junior or Suzie can pull it right up into the driveway without Mom or Dad ever knowing. I see a LOT of illicit parties looming on the horizon! ;D

@Datahopa: Yup! My point, exactly! LMAO!

@GT40: Nice pic. You should put that in the gallery, if it isn't, already (though I think a nice blue/white GT40 would have been cool, too)

Thanks GCC. That girl has her own thread elsewhere.

But I can't resist to repost this pic she recently sent:



No comment please.  :o

"This is NOT a GT 40!"


Yeah...looks like the Top is too large and the Rear end a bit too high.

Umm...You are talking about the car right?! :D ;D
In the world of AI, it's the thought that counts!
