You don't have to wait for the automakers or government to mandate Hydrogen fuel stations. You can convert your present automobile to burn hydrogen NOW for very little cost and increase your gas mileage from 30% to 75%. Go to www.HHO-FUEL-GUIDES.COM to learn more.

I read about a class project that some high school kids did. They made Hydrogen converter cells and installed them in their teachers car. It reported helped the car get 30% better gas mileage. If you do a search for HHO on ebay you can find people selling these systems. I've been driving a hybrid so I don't know how true the claims are.

These cells create Browns Gas which is fed into your car to boost fuel economy. Very inexpensive to do and easy to remove. I almost want to buy another car just to try it out.

Guys, The whole point of hydrogen is that you can send it into an electric fuel cell, which is about twice as efficient as the internal combustion engine. Burning it defeats the point. And, this Hydrogen 7 car stores it as a cryogenic liquid which continually boils away when not in use. Its just a PR ploy, leased to VIPs. Google it...

I would be absolutely interested in a hydrogen powered car, especially if it looks like a regular car. I remember reading about the Hydrogen 7 several years ago when it was still a concept. It looked like a regular car with all the usual fixings. It's nice to know that BMW hasn't abandoned the internal combustion engine, and instead focused on ways to improve it. And get this: it was all done without government mandates! Now all we need is for someone (not necessarily the oil companies) to start coming up with hydrogen fuel stations and we can see the most viable alternative energy to oil on the market. Anything to stick it to the Saudis.
