In the Autoblog Garage: 2009 Ford Flex Limited [w/VIDEO] {Autoblog}
Jul 17th 2008 7:43PM What 7 passenger vehicle gets 30 mpg? It's a minivan. People who need to haul kids around still needs a vehicle like this no matter what the gas price is. Kids still need to go to school, and that average 2 1/2 kid household needs a vehicle to drive everyone around. It is still cheaper than taking 2 cars.

Jun 15th 2008 4:44PM As compared to what Nick? GT500 is 3920 lbs. BMW M6 is 3909 lbs. A Ferrari 612 Scaglietti weights in at 4056 lbs. A MB SLR McLaren is 4023 lbs. It's reasonable weight for this level of performance at the price range.

Jun 3rd 2008 11:02AM You just lost a few points by admitting that it is a common read for autoblog... Unless you're using it as toilet paper in your bathroom. C&D is trash.

Jun 3rd 2008 9:11AM Yes! Why bother "crusade" for human rights or end poverty when you can crusade for others to buy cars manufactured at a specific origin based on your sociological analysis.
Stupid me just buy cars that I like instead of trying to make a social statement. When will people learn to be smart like you.

Jun 2nd 2008 9:32AM NOAA predictions are not really worth anything...They always predict high numbers of hurricans. Even though they are wrong each year, they wait until that one odd year when the laws of average catches up with them, then they pat themselves on the back and ask for more federal funding.

May 28th 2008 3:40PM It's not simple at all. You seriously need to study up on thermodynamics & electrical engineering if you think you're gonna store enough air to run a car for 30 miles plus an alternator to supply electric power.

May 28th 2008 2:53PM Maybe you have't considered this...and I'm very sorry to burst your bubble. What makes you think a CA car would need a smaller battery pack than a hybrid? A hybrid's batteries are charged onboard. A CA car's batteries, which will run the safety equipment, headlights, and all the electrical stuff has to run on a single charge. That means even if you have air stations every 30 miles, your range is limited to what the battery will hold.
I mean, you can imagine the lawsuits if the power steering, brakes, headlights, antilock brakes, federally mandated stability control all go out while you're driving because the battery is drained.
