I can imagine the quarter mile times in that slug with 1,600 lbs of lead in the back ....

And speaking of that ... where do ya put the cargo??? On top of the batteries?

A nice toy for the kids to play with. That's about it. Useless otherwise.

Once the government gets everyone hooked on electric cars, electricity will be a $1 per kWh .... because they had to close all those "dirty" coal plants ....

The technology for a water powered car has been around for nearly a century. I am probably wrong, but I believe Ford came up with the idea and got it working in the 20's.

I wouldn't. Nuclear reactors sitting in one spot with multiple redundant safety features are just fine; going down the highway at 70mph? Not so much. Not to mention your "engine" needing a week to start up or shut down...

Lol well like a said.. i didnt think it would be a very feasible idea anytime soon. But hey your engine would last multiple years without needing a "refill"
