To be quite honest, the sooner the car companies leave the Gasoline powered automobile to us hobbyists the better. The hybrid cars are a bad joke that play to the insensibilities of the Tree Hugging Generation on both sides of the loan. Sad thing is, they just can't see it. As it is now most of the Gasoline cars, we can't work on! We have check engine lights that tell us that either our gas cap isn't tight or that that $1500 dollar fuel injection part is failing & you better bring it in so we can charge you to fix it. Sorry, nope it's not covered on that insurance plan we sold you & it's a 15 hour job to change out because you have to pull the motor to pull the oil pan to get to it even though you can see it from the top of the engine . I think you know what I mean. They need to develop the electric technology already so we can buy cheap electric cars that we can give to the recyclers every 5 years on receipt of our next new cheapo commuter.... Ok, My rant & sad excuse for a dream have both been accomplished. Continue on....
