Will Water Cars - Flood The Market?

If you do a search on the net for water cars you come up with some pretty viable looking technology, if you add that to the Auto makers research and prototype hydrogen cars, plus their flex fuel vehicles, put that along side the latest hybrids and all electrics and I think you see where the oil co. or starting to see a real opponent in the energy wars, I think this plays a big part of the sudden high prices along with the reduced supply.

Here is one of the latest. Yahoo!

If you think about it why would they make more of something that we are rapidly trying to get away from and why would they lower the cost on something they are going to sell less of in the future.

We as consumers have all but told the oil co. our goal is to put you out of business but until we figure out how, we want more oil, we want it cheaper and we want it know.

lol one thing your not seeing is the massive amount of electrical power it takes to
extract the hydrogen out of the water by electrolysis.
Its impossible to produce enough amperage unless you got a small nuclear reactor powering a generator.
or a long cord from a 440 outlet.

Although there is more than one working prototype to disprove that,
YouTube - Man Runs Car on Pure Water and Sun
I don’t think the big three or the oil co. will allow hydrogen cars in the U.S. that are not fueled at their filling stations.

That is not the information i have. I'll let you know soon if it works. Go to water4gas and read the info.

I really don't think big oil can control what the sun does, but i could be wrong...

That's exactly what the "educated" will tell you... However, it's not true.
