THE EV LIE AND THE 250MPG COMBUSTION ENGINE CAR

Post by TOMGREEN413 » Sat Oct 21, 2023 6:53 pm

Good evening my fellow petrolheads........I watched a conference almost 15 years ago showing the incredible performance possible using the best construction and materials in an effort to push the boundaries of what a hybrid car was capable of, I also listend several years later of how the EU with the influence of BIG OIL shut his vehicle down almost before it could get started. The VX LX1 is a classic example of how amazing technology and development ( the water car was another but that's a long story) can be shut down by a very small but powerful individuals who have other agendas in mind. Will history look back and ask why the development of the petrol and diesel internal combustion engine were deliberately shut down.........let's hope they still have a chance to shine as we see the debacle of the EV and it short comings become a hotter and hotter subject for discussion in the coming weeks n months.

The therapy obviously isn't working or did you just stop your medication? :crazydude:

Ah but then it would've had to be made from planks of wood...which are quite heavy. And then there's the ongoing worry of woodworm. Never any easy answers. :(
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Of the two of us, it is pretty obvious which one requires a chemical imbalance in the brain repaired.
