The New 2008 Hybrid Cars

The 2008 auto year is officially under way, and new models of 2008 hybrid cars are now or will soon be available to consumers. For those unfamiliar with hybrid cars, let’s briefly explain why they differ from regular vehicles and why environmentally conscious consumers prefer hybrid vehicles.

Hybrid cars (and trucks) are designed to reduce emissions by having at least two seperate power sources. Basically, instead of relying on burning fuel for all its power, a hybrid vehicle typically uses both an energy storage system in addition to gasoline, thereby expending less gasoline and less emissions.

Specifically, an energy storage system in a hybrid vehicle will in effect recognize when fuel is being wasted and will recycle energy to power the car or truck. Wasteful car and truck actions such as idling, traffic stops, etc. are recognized by the energy storage system and the gasoline burning engine is stopped. City drivers in particular notice a greater fuel economy with hybrid vehicles due to the constant stop and go flow of heavy city traffic.

What You Should Expect To See In 2008:

New Hybrid Sedans:

Chevy Malibu rolls out a new hybrid model as a 2009 offering late this summer or early fall. Others with similar plans include the Ford Fusion and Saturn’s AURA in their Green Line. Also expect a new version of the Mercury Milan as a hybrid.

Crossovers and SUV’s Go Hybrid:

Expect Saturn to roll out the VUE as the newest member of their Green Line, offering half the emissions of their regular model. Also with new models will be the Chevy Equinox, Toyota Prius, and Toyota Sienna.

Hybrid Full Size Trucks and Hybrid Pickups:

New from General Motors in the hybrid pickup and full size truck category will be the Chevy Silverado, a full size pickup expected to debut as a 2009 model. Also from GM and another 2009 model will be the GMC Sierra, also a pickup.

Other 2008 Hybrid Car Happenings:

Of interest is the first hybrid car from China, the Roewe 750, a midsize car. Chinese car manufacturer SAIE is producing the hybrid 750, their version of the United Kingdom’s Rover 75.

Expect to see even more hybrid car and hybrid truck model introductions as we move into the 2009 and 2010 model years. The hybrid car and truck market is ever expanding, and auto manufacturers are more than happy to meet the demand.

    How A Woman In Cleveland Paid 89 Cents For A Gallon Of Gas an how you can too.

    In August of 2005 the price listed as the price for a gallon of regular unleaded gas was $2.29. That same day Kellie Courtney of Cleveland paid only 89 cents a gallon.

    Marion Charvat paid $1.09 a gallon. Marion filled her Volkswagen Jetta for only $12.45. How could they buy gas so cheap? They did it because they are smart consumers.

    Here’s how they did it.

    The reason that Kellie and Marion were able to purchase gas at such a low price is that they treated gas like it was any other item that they would go to a store to buy. They shopped around and they found a way to purchase their gas at the store that they found had the absolute lowest cost. They found a frequent shopper program that allowed them to lower their gas cost. They found it at a grocery chain called Giant Eagle.

    Giant Eagle does business in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia. Recently Giant Eagle added a new component to their frequent shopper program. It is called Fuelperks. It is a program that offers discounts on gas at Giant Eagle’s own stations for shopping at Giant Eagle using their frequent shopper card.

    For every $50.00 of purchases using the frequent shopper card the consumer will get a 10 cent reduction in the price of gas for one tank fill up. Purchase $100.00 worth; get 20 cents off a gallon. Purchase $500.00 worth and get $1.00 off a gallon. Buy enough groceries and you can get gasoline for free.

    A large family that has to buy a lot of groceries every week will very quickly earn large discounts at the gas pump. The prices at Giant Eagle are in line with most of the other groceries in the area and their regular price on gas is in line with other gas stations so you really are getting a legitimate discount on gas.

    You have to buy groceries somewhere; you might as well buy it a store that gives you a substantial discount on gas while you are at it. That is one way to beat the gas pump.

    Treat gas like anything else that you buy. Look for the best deals. Look for frequent shopper programs in your neighborhood that allow you to build up discounts you can use towards gas. Look for gas discounts and incentives anywhere you see a gas pump. Look for stores that may be branching out into the frequent shopper area or stores that now sell gas that didn’t before.

    In order to compete with the new grocery gas stations many gas convenience stores are beginning to implement frequent shopper programs that will result in lower gas costs. But more and more traditional stores that never sold gas before are realizing that discount gas is a big incentive to get shoppers. Giant Eagle is one example of a traditional grocery store branching out to sell gas at a discount.

    According to the Food Marketing Institute, just 18% of grocery stores built in 2003 had gas pumps; last year, more than 60% of new stores were built with gas stations. They have seen the value of offering gas to their customers as a loss leader.

    The mega retailers are another place you should look for bargains. As in many areas Wal-Mart / Sam’s Club are jumping into the gas business big time. The VP in charge of fuel for Wal-Mart says he is looking to extend Sam Walton’s marketing strategy to gasoline by building gas stations at every Sam’s Club throughout the country. In his view, putting in pumps should be “standard practice. It just fits our business model: we want to bring everything [to consumers] at the lowest price.”

    So how can you lower your gas costs?

    Treat gas like any other item you purchase. Look for deals, discounts and low prices. Comparison shop. Find the retailers that offer the best program for you. Look for gas bargains at some of the non traditional outlets like grocery stores or mega stores. Then maybe you will be able to buy that tank of gas for 89 cents a gallon like Kellie Courtney did.

      Why Choose Half Water Half Gas As A Hydrogen Conversion Guide?

      by Harold Winslow

      Half Water Half Gas is the latest addition to the series of different Do-It-Yourself hydrogen car conversion kit guides that are now available on the internet. So how can this new guide hope to have a chance against the more popular Water 4 Gas and Run Your Car On Water? And also how does it compare to the already popular and well used guides?

      The people who came up with this guide are most likely marketers, I can say this because I know for a fact that “ozzie” who came up with the original guide Water4Gas was a marketer who used the plans for the conversion and turned them into a product. The thing is, that is not really important as long as it is providing the consumer with what they are looking for. I believe the devolopers of this product were very smart, because they included video as a format for the instructions for conversion.

      This factor really does make it a lot easier for many people. Because of the way that different folks learn and grasp the information differently, by covering different ways of learning, the developers of Half Water Half Gas have really done a great job.

      So in terms of comparison to the other guides, how does Half Water Half Gas shape up? Well at the price of $67 it comes somewhere right in between the price of the other two main guides (Water 4 Gas at $97, and Run Your Car On Water at $49.97). The detail of the guide is very good, as I mentioned it uses video as a means of instruction, so that allows one to really get a very clear idea of the process.

      How easy is this guide to implement? Well when it comes down to it, this guide along with pretty much all the other guides use the same process of implementation, just with slightly different approaches. Half Water Half Gas does turn out to be pretty easy to implement. You might find it hard if you have no idea how to do any maintenaince on your car. If you aren’t comfortable doing basic maintenance, I recommend getting a professional to install it for you.

      The customer support for this guide while not as good as Water 4 Gas, was still responsive within 48 hours, and did seem to understand how to help during any hiccups. That being said, because of the nature of having on screen visuals (the video) as instruction, far less people would be relying on customer support with the use of this guide.

      For what you are paying for this guide, I think the value is pretty good. I think that almost anyone with the intention of installing their own hydrogen conversion kit would be pleased with this product. That being said all of these products are sold through ClickBank, and in my own experience when I have not been happy with something I bought it was a very minor deal to just get my money back.

      If you are having any doubts about the fact that hydrogen fuel technology works, just ask yourself, do you think that the multimillion dollar companies would want to invest millions of dollars into this technology if it did not work? No, its obvious that this technology is valid, and its only because of corruption and greed that it stayed under the table for so long.

      www.jetman.ch latest news on Yves Rossy's official site! Follow his channel www.youtube.com The Jet Man, Yves Rossy, a former Swiss military pilot, designed and built a deployable 3-meter wing, holding kerosene fuel for 2 jet engines (as of May 2008 FOUR turbines on a 2.5m wing!!) fixed to the tips and attached it to his back. Rossy launched from an airplane and flew for 4 minutes, traveling over 100 mph, landing by parachute. www.jet-man.com OK here's my attempt at translation (if you can, please correct!): 00:16 (VIDEO START) 00:20 (German) Further, further away from the car 00:22 Yes 00:24 (French) Towards the drain 00:25 There? 00:26 Yep 00:33 ('SCOTLAND THE BRAVE' RINGTONE) 00:48 So, the idea is, as we see here, there's the fuel, the smoke cartridges, and the jet engines underneath, for horizontal flight. 01:00 In fact, the Flying Jet Man, that's the idea. And to do that we've developed this folding wing, taking into account the space available in the plane, because we don't have much space. A wing of 3 meters would not fit in the plane without being folding. 01:19 It's nearly a mini-airplane, except that, well, I'm the fuselage. So there's fuel, batteries, gas for starting the jet engines, oil is in the kerosene for lubricating the engine. I have a little handle for moving the ailerons so I can go up and down, so I've got all the controls just like a plane, and like I said I'm the fuselage with two jet engines up my backside! 01:56 The goal - horizontal flight ...
      A Gallon of Gas for a Quarter?
      3:05
      Views: 588,010
      A gallon of gas for about a quarter? Let's do the time warp again and find out how it's possible. A bit of background: Before 1965 American quarters (half dollar coins, dollar coins, etc.) were 90% silver. They were a medium of exchange like today's quarters but also had the intrinsic value of the silver they were made of. When you were given a quarter (pre-1965), you were given something of actual value--specifically it had the value of 0.18 oz of silver. The government no longer makes money with intrinsic value (because then they couldn't steal the value of your money via inflation) and today quarters are made mostly of copper. A quarter today is worth only whatever "25 cents" will buy and that continually changes for the worse as the government increases the money supply over time. If you want to know more, read the following free e-book at mises.org: "What Has Government Done to Our Money?" www.mises.org You can check the value of metals in various coins yourself here: www.coinflation.com If it bothers you that around .25 of buying power has been stolen from every quarter by the government since the 1960's and you want to do something about it consider supporting people like Ron Paul.

My uncle was up on the roof with bags of sand and a shovel in hand in case they dropped a bomb with a phosphorous fuze (Water won't put out the burning phosphorous, but sand will).

      Massive solar eruptions could threaten our high-tech society. The year was 2003... with Halloween approaching... 93 million miles away... an angry sun began to vent its rage. Dark regions, called sunspots, appeared unexpectedly on its surface... a sign of rising tension within. It had been three and a half years since the sun last erupted in fury... ...at the peak of an 11-year cycle of solar flare-ups. Back then, we got ready for it... by shutting down satellites that were vulnerable to high levels of radiation. But no one expected this. In what should have been a low point in solar activity, the sun erupted in a series of massive explosions, called coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. Electrified gas clouds weighing billions of tons raced outward. Solar telescopes recorded the action... The largest emission of solar x-rays ever seen. The hottest flares, at tens of millions of degrees... And the fastest... reaching speeds clocked at six million miles per hour. The sun became a giant plasma weapon... more potent than any in science fiction... and pointed right at our home planet. On Earth... the Halloween storms produced some of the most spectacular auroras ever seen at the north and south poles. They also brought jolts of electricity that caused power outages in Sweden, and disrupted airline navigation. In space, these storms damaged 28 communications satellites, and destroyed two. And they didn't stop there. As the energetic surge swept past Mars, it was so strong it burned ...
      Grilling Lobster Tails

      Views: 244,082
      Grilling lobster tails is quick and easy thanks to this easy method from Chef Jason Hill. Many people are intimidated on how to cook lobster, but grilled lobster tails are an impressive and simple way to go. If you have a Maine lobster or other variety of lobster, simply split the tails in half and rinse under cool water. Lobster tail recipes are best when made with a scampi-style butter, garlic and parsley sauce. Hill's recipe for grilled lobster tails uses this method, first by cooking lobster tails on the grill, and then by finishing them off in a saute pan. Side dishes for lobster dinner include garlic mashed potatoes and grilled corn on the cob. See Hill's accompanying recipe for grilling corn on the cob. We hope this is one of the best lobster recipes you'll try! Following are the ingredients you'll need: 2 (8 oz.) lobster tails 2 tablespoons chive oil or extra virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon garlic-shallot puree (or 2 crushed garlic cloves) 1/2 stick butter 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley 2 cups water (use as needed) Salt and pepper (as desired) First, lay the lobster tail on its back. With your knife, set it on the tip of tail. Push knife down into meat and crack through the back of the shell. Gently pull meat apart from the shell, but not completely. Rinse lobster under cool water. Pat dry. Drizzle chive oil or olive oil over the meat. Cover and put in the refrigerator in 30 minutes. Preheat your outdoor gas grill. Place lobster tails, meat side down, on the ...

      DANGEROUS DEMONSTRATION! If you wear a ring, you might shatter the bottle and slice your hand. And sometimes the whole bottle breaks into razor-edged shrapnel. ----- It's quite easy to blow the bottom out of glass bottles... if you know the secret. Even wine bottles sometimes work. But not cider jugs, since the pressure peak is too small if the square inches is large. VACUUM CAVITATION BOTTLE That vacuum bottle at the start? I made it as follows. (DANGER, explosion hazard!) Find a bottle with a lid, one which is short enough to fit inside a microwave oven. Get an ice cube, save it for later. First de-gas some water by boiling it on the stove for about half an hour. Fill your glass bottle almost full with the boiling hot water. (Careful! The bottle may shatter!) Place a wooden stick inside, then cook it on high in your microwave oven until it starts boiling again (several minutes.) Now remove the wood stick and place the lid loosely on top of the bottle. Cook on medium for several minutes, this replaces the air with live steam as well as heating the metal lid to 100C. Now using gloves, suddenly pop open the microwave door, grab the bottle and screw down the lid, then place the ice-cube on the lid, and put it in the oven for safety. DANGER, THE BOTTLE MIGHT EXPLODE AT THIS TIME! Leave the bottle alone and stay far from the oven. With luck it will cool down without any problem, and the air above the water will have been replaced by a good vacuum.

The name Endothermic Reactor was so named for this quest to create the ultimate holy grail in energy. One of GEET's claim is that this will allow a car to run for 100 to 120 miles on a single gallon of gas.

      It's the ultimate buddy movie. Forty years ago, on November 19, 1969, astronauts Pete Conrad and Alan Bean landed on the moon in one of the most important of the Apollo flights. This video shows them making a pinpoint landing on a treacherous lunar surface, finding rocks, and generally having a blast. The program features an interview with Pete Conrad, filmed a year before he died in a tragic motorcycle accident in 1999. Credit Space.com with editorial assistance. Earth.... November 14th, 1969. Three astronauts... with spacesuits, food, water, and a battery of scientific and communications equipment... were bound for the moon. Thousands gathered at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, including President and Mrs. Richard Nixon, to witness the historic launch. The Saturn V rocket that would carry them into space was theoretically designed to launch in any weather... and on this day it was raining. The mission's commander, astronaut Pete Conrad, would say later: "The flight was extremely normal, for the first 36 seconds." Audio: 10, 9, 8, ignition sequence start, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, all engines running... liftoff.

      Alright, it's been a couple of years since I posted this, and I've read some of the comments, so I think it's time to post some counterpoints to the most common statements. Some of you have mentioned putting the fire out with the lid. That was the first thing we did (before the video). The lid warped immediately and did nothing to smother the fire. You can see the guy holding the lid with tongs because it was still too hot to touch with bare hands from covering the fire moments before. Others have mentioned baking soda as the solution. We tried that, as you can see at the beginning of the video. As it turns out, baking soda is flammable at that high of a temperature. We would have needed a tremendous amount of it to put this fire out, and all we had was the one large box. Call the fire department? Turn your sound on and you'll hear the phone call. The video ends when I went to move my car so the fire department could get in. Don't put water on a grease fire: It's important to note WHY you've been told this since childhood. Water boils at a much lower temperature than oil burns, so it will splash oil everywhere when used on a grease fire. Since that oil is already on fire, it will spread the fire to whatever it lands on. As you can see in the video, my friend's dad very methodically wet the deck to reduce the chance of the fire spreading before wetting a rug and using it to smother the flame. He then kept the rug wet to prevent it catching. You can tell from the tremendous ...
      Creating Hell in a Pop Bottle

      Views: 105,609
      Hydrogen Oxygen has an adiabatic flame temperature of about 3000 degrees kelvin, thats about half the temperature of the surface of the Sun. Question is... just for fun, can you put that into a pop bottle! Previously I've shown other fuel air burns, one similar to that used in most internal combustion engines (butane air), and the other as one of the more common rocket fuels (hydrogen oxygen). Both release lots of energy when they burn, which is of course what makes them suitable as fuels. The hydrogen oxygen burn though is particularly fascinating as it only produces water as an 'exhaust', further it produces very little water! Indeed to fill a bottle with hydrogen and oxygen you only need to turn about 0.5g of water into H2 and O2, and of course when you burn it you only recreate that half gram of water. To make life even more interesting, to actually do the electrolysis I use a 12 volt Li-ion polymer battery, very similar to those used in most laptops today, simply so folk can visualise in a very simple way the energy content in these everyday objects. Indeed the energy content is significantly higher as only a fraction of the energy I draw from this battery actually goes into creating the H2 and O2, while probably the majority goes into heating up the electrolysis solution. Now when H2 and O2 burn, there is actually a reduction in the number of molecules of gas, which would, if all other conditions were the same actually produce a reduction in pressure, however the ...

      30/09/09: A powerful earthquake hits Indonesia that left 75 dead. It strucked off in he city of Padang, Sumatra Island. The death toll was likely to rise further as many buildings, including hotels, schools and shops had collapsed, Vice President Jusuf Kalla told a news conference in Jakarta. TV footage showed devastation, with piles of rubble and smashed houses after the 7.6 magnitude earthquake, which caused widespread panic across the city of 900000 people. Rustam Pakaya, the head of the health ministry's disaster centre in Jakarta, said "thousands of people are trapped in the rubble of buildings." Metro Television reported the roof of Padang airport had collapsed. The quake was felt around the region, with some high-rise buildings in Singapore, 440 km (275 miles) to the northeast, evacuating staff. Office buildings also shook in the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre cancelled an earlier tsunami alert. "Hundreds of houses have been damaged along the road. There are some fires, bridges are cut and there is extreme panic here," said a Reuters witness in the city, who also said broken water pipes had triggered flooding. His mobile phone was then cut off and officials said power had been severed in the city. A resident called Adi later told Indonesia's Metro Television there was devastation around him. "For now I can't see dead bodies, just collapsed houses. Some half destroyed, others completely. People are standing around too scared to ...

      New Prius Exclusive @ 2009 NAIAS

      Views: 45,111
      MORE DETROIT AUTO SHOW COVERAGE: www.edmunds.com We've imagined the 2010 Toyota Prius with cutting-edge lithium-ion batteries and plug-in capability, and now the real thing is here at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. And although the production version of the 2010 Toyota Prius isn't radically different from the second-generation Prius, it should bring some significant upgrades when it goes on sale in late spring 2009. The most obvious of these is the adoption of a larger-displacement, 1.8-liter inline-4 engine with variable valve timing (intake valves only). Running on the Atkinson cycle, the engine makes 98 horsepower at 5200 rpm and 105 pound-feet of torque — a big increase from the 76 hp and 82 lb-ft supplied by the second-generation car's 1.5-liter engine. The 1.8-liter uses cooled exhaust gas recirculation to enhance fuel economy (reintroducing cooled gas back into the intake manifold reduces pumping losses), and an electrically driven water pump eliminates the need for a power-robbing serpentine belt. Toyota says total system power for the 2010 Toyota Prius is 134 hp, meaning that an additional 36 hp is coming from the car's nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The 2009 Prius had a battery pack rated for 28 hp. The front transaxle that houses the car's electric motors and planetary continuously variable transmission is lighter this year, and Toyota says this reduces torque losses by up to 20 percent. An improved cooling system for the inverter allowed Toyota's engineers to ...

      This video is a continuation of the first half of "The Real Mario-Kart" which is a collection of clips of me go-carting at my friend Darlene's farm. The beginning of this video shows the 5HP engine that replaced the original 3.5HP engine on the black go-cart. The 3.5HP blew at least three piston rods before it was finally put out of service. The 5HP came off an air compressor that sat outside for some time with the spark plug missing. Water made its way into the combustion chamber and rusted the gas valve open. The valve was pounded down with a hammer and then the engine was rebuilt. Amazingly the engine starts and still does, but it drinks oil.
      Environmentally Correct Oil Spill Cleanup Solution with Hay & Straw

      In this video posted by the Walton County (FL) Sheriff's Department, Darryl Carpenter, Vice President of Florida-based CW Roberts Contracting and sub-contractor Otis Goodson, shows how hay, hay grass and straw can be used as a very effective environmentally correct oil spill cleanup solution. In a scene reminiscent of a primetime cooking show, the Carpenter and Goodson video shows how Coastal Bermuda and Bahia hay could be scattered over the surface of the ocean with hay blowers to absorb the oil. To start, the two men pour oil into two large pans of water, stir in the hay, add a little "wave action," then skim off the oil-soaked hay. The audience watching the Walton County video included representatives from BP (British Petroleum), the Coast Guard and the Sheriff's office. CW Roberts then asks BP and the Coast Guard for the chance to do a 10-acre live demonstration in Gulf waters. They were told that approval has to come from higher up, but can they say no to this environmentally correct oil spill cleanup solution, with just Hay and Straw? "We work along the whole Gulf of Mexico coastal area in Florida," says CW Roberts president, Charles Roberts. "We have everything mobilized. We can have boats and equipment on the water in less than a half-day. We have been getting calls from all over, from people who want to supply the hay. We want to be given the chance to see if it works. If it works on 10-acres, then give us a bigger assignment." CW Roberts, a 700-employee ...
      How to Test if Fertilizer Has Nitrates in it
      2:36
      Views: 34,220
      In this video we show you how to test if a fertilizer has nitrates rather than urea or ammonia as its nitrogen source. The idea is quit simple, in a strongly acidic solution the nitrates will behave like nitric acid and dissolve copper metal releasing nitrogen dioxide gas. Looking for this gas is a strong indication for the presence of nitrates. WARNING: these reactions produce toxic nitrogen dioxide gas, this must be performed outside or in a fume hood. To perform the test, simply mix some of your fertilizer with water to dissolve the nitrates and then mix it with hydrochloric acid. Then add in some copper metal. The reaction is very slow to start up unless you heat it. A nerdy way of heating it on the spot without using a heater is to add a small ball of aluminum metal, don't use too much or it will go out of control. Stir the mixture as the aluminum dissolves to distribute the heat evenly. After the mixture is heated, place a glass container over the mixture to keep the gases in. If nitrogen dioxide is forming the distinctive brown nitrogen dioxide will fill the container. And that's how you can tell if there are nitrates in your fertilizer. If you want to test for ammonia (in case you have ammonium nitrate) just mix some fertilizer with half as much sodium hydroxide and add a little water to cover it. If it starts bubbling and releasing ammonia gas then it contains ammonia. Our website www.nurdrage.com For more information on the chemistry visit the web page at sites ...

        Hypermiling – Driving Techniques the Cool Kids Use!

        Ok so what is Hypermiling? (Hyper Miling)

        In a nutshell it’s fuel efficient driving to save gas and get better MPGs out of any vehicle or it could be looked at as the art of conservative driving to save gas and getting 30% better gas mileage on average.

        Some drivers have been able to modify their driving habits to exceed the EPA estimates and go where no man has gone before in terms of squeezing every possible mile out of a gallon of gas. Many have become so talented at driving with minimal use of fuel that they have gotten 100 miles per gallon out of their vehicles and more. Through trial and error, hypermilers have learned certain extreme driving techniques that will drastically lower fuel consumption.

        Here are some quick tips to make you a Hypermiler. :)

        1) Drive a stick shift car or truck (duh)
        2) Park and ride (bicycle)
        3) Attend a driving clinic
        4) Clean junk from your trunk
        5) Let the most efficient driver drive
        7) Remove unused roof racks
        8) Check tire inflation regularly
        9) Track your fuel consumption
        10) Use a fuel consumption display
        11) Stop speeding
        12) Coast instead of braking
        13) Use of Cruise Control
        14) Find a route that’s easy on your vehicle
        15) Turn off the car before putting it in park
        16) Don’t leave the car running if not necessary
        17) Get an oil change when you should
        18) Balance those tires
        19) Ridge Riding: If you want to save gas during or after a hard rain, hug the right side of your lane, or the shoulder if you’re already driving in the far right lane, to avoid driving in the puddles created by other drivers.
        20) Downhill run: If you’re driving downhill, take your foot off the gas pedal and coast all the way down until you absolutely must brake or give your car a little more gas.

          Tips on Obtaining Cheap Gas

          Saving on gas is quite a task these days, as so many must travel to places of work and to obtain higher education. The high prices paid at the pump aren’t necessary, however, as there are indeed a few ways that consumers can save money by following a few gas guidelines and tips.

          The most common way to save gas is to not use things such air conditioning or heating in a vehicle, as this puts further strain on the engine that leads to higher gas consumption. Interestingly, this isn’t always the case on highways or interstate travel. High drag caused by lowered windows will reduce a car’s ability to be aerodynamic- and thus lower its gas efficiency. Therefore it’s best to use air conditioning at higher speeds.

          It’s no wonder that older folk seem to have to get gas less than others. This might be due to the fact that they travel less, but also because the elderly tend to drive slower on average. Driving slow and responsibly will increase fuel mileage, as it helps keep unnecessary strain on the engine. Slow acceleration and braking habits also help to give vehicle owners increased fuel efficiency.

          Even though car manuals sometimes claim that cars should be run on the highest grades of fuel, this is not true. Cars that can accept low grades of fuel should, since this gives cheaper prices for just about the same amount of mileage. Purchasing gas with a higher octane rating may help improve mileage, but not enough to actually justify the price difference.

          Two other options help dictate gas mileage: weight and tire inflation. Weight, for instance, might be putting extra drag on one’s engine, or even causing a car to be less aerodynamic via a lopsided vehicle. Excess weight can also put more strain on tires, which should always be checked for accurate inflation. A tire that is not properly inflated will always decrease gas mileage considerably.

          As a last note, those who live in colder climates or experience cold climates at winter should keep in mind that warming up a car shouldn’t be a lengthy process. While it is nice to warm up a car for 10 minutes in order to get in warm for entry, this wastes gas and is inefficient. Cars should be warmed up for about a minute or two, and then it’s perfectly fine to start driving in colder weather.

          Final Thoughts

          In the end, getting around the high gas price hikes isn’t going to be easy. But being economical and thrifty on the subject can save consumers quite a bit of money over the years. Until alternative fuels can be found, and renewable “green” sources of energy may be used, following the previously mentioned tips becomes important for both our environment and wallets.

            The Dirty Secret of “Big Oil,” Water for Gas, and Hydrogen

            Sometimes it seems as though there is no end in sight, as
            gas prices continue to rise and neither the government nor
            the oil companies seem to be doing much to stop these high
            gas prices from continuing. In order to save a little bit of
            money each month, there are several different ways of
            improving your car’s MPG rating that will help you reduce
            gas costs overall.

            Buy gas during cold weather – gas is sold by volume, not by
            concentration. When it is warm outside, gas expands and when
            it is cold, gas contracts. To get the most out of your
            money, filling your tank up with fuel during cold weather
            can save you money on gas over time.

            Make sure your tires are filled with air. Tires that are not
            completely filled can cause over a quarter of your gas to be
            wasted, as it burns heavier in order to keep your engine
            running with the weak tires. It is a good idea to check your
            tires often to make sure none of them are running low on
            air

            Keep your drive speed between 30 and 60 MPH – This is the
            optimum level for cars. Below 30 miles per hour and your car
            is receiving a lot of strain while not going at a very fast
            speed. Over 60 MPH and your engine is working much harder
            than it needs to for not much more speed. Keeping within the
            standard 30-60 MPH range can be very effective for gas
            relief.

            One final lesser known method of relief from the high gas
            prices is a way to run your car on water that has been
            sweeping the nation. From the idea of Hydrogen technology
            comes HHO gas – an alternative power source designed to use
            water (standard H20) to improve the MPG of your non-hybrid
            engine.

            And what an improvement – reports of miles per gallon almost
            tripling amongst casual users have been commonplace with
            those that use one of the water car systems report a
            substantial savings of thousands of dollars a year. All it
            takes is a small addition to your engine that you can make
            yourself using standard hardware parts.

            This HHO technology works by providing an electrical charge
            to tap water that you can get from your sink and turning it
            into a hydrogen particle that your car uses as fuel. In a
            way, you are adding an alternative energy source to your car
            without having to purchase a new automobile, thus making
            your car significantly more energy efficient and saving you
            money at the pump.

            The best part about these systems is that they are 100%
            safe, unlike the hydrogen powered cars with which they are
            modeled after. And not only do you save money at the tank,
            you help save the environment as well, as these hydrogen
            cells produce far less emissions. Using one of these systems
            on your car is the best thing you can do If you hope to
            experience some form relief from these high gas prices
            anytime in the near future.

            Learn how to Run your
            Car on Water
            safely and avoid paying an arm and a leg at
            the pump!

              Tips to Double your Gas Mileage for Cars, Truck, & Vans

              Hello everyone. My name is James Swanson. I am an HHO gas
              Experimenter. I am also The publisher of many articles
              on this subject, and I have a few tips and tricks for
              you to use today to double or even tripple your gas mileage.
              So let’s get started.

              I found out that the SYSTEM approach to energy savings works
              the best. (From my experimentation with different cars, old
              and new). A 5% to 20% savings quickly adds up. You can
              practically double your mileage and be the envy of the
              neighborhood. I recommend that you use ALL the technologies
              listed below to save fuel, because they support and
              supplement each other.

              The 3 steps to Huge fuel savings are as follows:

              1. Get a fuel warmer installed such as a “Fuel Atomizer
              2000″ http://wyominginstruments.com

              2. DO NOT fill up your tank at stations that add 10% ethanol
              (the mixture is called “gasohol”). Use Xylene!
              (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylene) and add it yourself
              for much better results and fuel economy.

              3. Replace your regular engine oil with “AMSoil Series 2000″ synthetic oil or similar low-friction oil.

              Theses are the first 3 “power-packed” steps to Greatly
              increase your fuel mileage. The next 7 steps are just as
              incredible! To see the next 7 steps simply subscribe to my free newsletter over in the top right section of this site.

All of the individual news reports in this video can be found on YouTube and other video sites. This video shows that many actual 9/11 witnesses heard and saw explosions going off inside the towers, long before they actually fell. These witnesses include police, firemen and reporters. And what is even more shocking is the fact that all of this has been largely ignored by the mainstream media after the day itself. For those debunkers who wish to keep saying that the explosions were caused by gas lines, please save your breath. All of the three buildings that were blown up on 9/11 were all Class-A buildings. This means that gas lines were not permitted because the buildings had to comply with the safety regulations set out for Class-A buildings. So there were no gas lines! We really need to wake up to the facts and ask questions. If we don't, what does that say about us? Sorry about the sync loss with the audio.

              There are three classic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas; however, plasma is considered by some scientists to be the fourth state of matter because of its unique properties. Ionized refers to presence of one or more free electrons, which are not bound to an atom or molecule. The free electric charges make the plasma electrically conductive so that it responds strongly to electromagnetic fields. Plasma typically takes the form of neutral gas-like clouds (eg stars) or charged ion beams, but may also include dust and grains (called dusty plasmas).[1] They are typically formed by heating and ionizing a gas, stripping electrons away from atoms, thereby enabling the positive and negative charges to move more freely. The Radio Instrument Building Research Institute under the supervision of Academician A. Avramenko developed a plasma weapon capable of killing any target at altitudes of up to 50 kilometers. Engineers and scientists of the institute in cooperation with the National Research Institute of Experimental Physics (Arzamas-16), Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute, and Central Machine Building Research Institute prepared a concept of the international experiment Doverie (Trust) for testing of the Russian plasma weapon at the American ABM testing ground in the Pacific Ocean together with the US. The cost of the experiment was estimated at 0 million. According to Academician Avramenko, the plasma antimissile weapon would not only cost tens times less than the ...

(Chorus) Let's watch this city burn, from the skylines on top of the world, Till there's nothing left of her, Let's watch this city burn the world. My body doused in ash, with two empty cans of gas, The only evidence they have is a police sketch of my mask. And it's hard at times to ask if you can save my heart for last, And it's hard to face the facts when the darkness fades to black. It's not just make believe when they make me take a seat, And they put amphetamines in the air and make me breathe. So come on and grab your children, look out for burning buildings, And villains who pillage, they're killin' by the millions. And billions of people die for a lost cause, So now I pray to my nation destroyed under God. It's the end of the world .... All my battles have been won but the war has just begun. (Chorus) The city looks so pretty do you wanna burn it with me? Till the skies bleed ashes and the fuckin' sky crashes. They catch us with the matches and ignite the flame, And all the hopes of a youth deemed fuckin' insane. They say.....Take the pill, in God we trust, Go and kill, God loves us. As in life, as in death, Breathing until there is no breath. I will not die in the night, but in the light of the sun, With the ashes of this world in my lungs. But who am I to say let's all just run away, Grab your saints ...

              Camaro Dyno-Mite: Hennessey HPE550 Camaro Dyno Smack Down

              MORE HENNESSEY CAMARO INFO @ INSIDELINE.COM: blogs.edmunds.com What's that? You're a power addict and the 426 horsepower with which Chevrolet endowed the 2010 Camaro SS is weaksauce? Here's your fix. The orange 2010 Camaro SS you see above has been given the full Texas-style treatment, and I'm not talking about barbeque. Hennessey Performance Engineering, headquartered in Sealy, Texas, coerces more power out of more than just Mopars and Mitsubishis these days, and he's turned his attention to Chevy's latest pony car. It's called the Hennessey HPE550. The centerpiece of the conversion is the breathing enhancement delivered by a Magnuson Roots-style blower and liquid-to-air intercooler. Supplementing the 6 psi generated by the supercharger is a cold-air intake and free-flow exhaust. Owner John Hennessey tells us that the package swells peak power to 562 hp as measured at the flywheel. Aftermarket horsepower claims are notoriously optimistic, so we did the obvious thing and strapped it to MD Automotive's Dynojet in Westminster, California. The result was anything but weaksauce. Click the jump for the dyno chart and video. First, a caveat. Before we did any dyno runs, we noticed that the insides of our HPE550 test car's tailpipes were curiously free of the typical fine sooty layer that coats every car that runs on pump gas. Instead, they were fairly clean save for a light gray coating.

              Iranian girl , Neda and her father attend a peaceful rally in Tehran before things took a tragic turn. The girl, known as Neda and thought to be 16, has become both a martyr and rallying cry for those opposed to the Iranian hardline government. "Neda, your death will not be in vain," reads one message on Twitter, where her name is being used as a call sign for anti-government bloggers and is one of the site's most mentioned words. The deaths follow threats from Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Friday that fresh opposition unrest would be met with "blood, violence and chaos". Iranian state television is reporting that 10 people were killed and more than 100 wounded in yesterday's violence in Tehran. Foreign media are banned from reporting on non-official events in Iran, where the state censors and regulates the information seen by its citizens and those abroad. But a video clip showing a girl known as Neda, who is thought to have been no older than 16, bleeding to death while frantic attempts are made to save her life has been broadcast across the globe via the internet. Reports from the country say the teenager had been watching Saturday's protests with her father when she was shot by Iran's militia. A message posted with the original footage on YouTube alleges she was intentionally shot in the chest. "I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her," the video's poster said. "But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the ...

                EPA And Hybrid Car Ratings: What You Need To Know

                EPA And Hybrid Car Ratings: What You Need To Know

                When it comes to hybrid cars, they’re probably the highest selling items in the car industry today. It’s only expected, though, considering the ratings that the EPA or the Environmental Agency are giving them. Charged with protecting and safeguarding the natural environment, it’s the EPA’s ratings that really matter when it comes to choosing the right hybrid vehicle to buy.

                What It’s All About?

                Wondering what EPA has to do with it? Most hybrids these days that are for sale to the general public have to have an EPA rating and it is this rating that will tell a consumer just how much fuel is saved when it comes to a hybrid’s mileage.

                These ratings are usually translated by the consumer into fuel efficiency and thus monetary savings. But more important than that, the EPA determines which cars are the most fuel-efficient, which ones have the least amount of carbon monoxide emissions, and therefore which ones are the fittest for the environment in general. Of course, this does not mean that gas-powered cars are not allowed on the road. Basically, the EPA ratings on hybrids help consumers make the right choice in car purchases.

                But What Is It Really All About?

                The EPA ratings system has always been around. In fact, at some point the ratings had to change with the introduction of hybrid cars. The EPA has mandatory fuel-economy tests that have to be carried out on all cars, old and new, sold in the United States.

                These tests are conducted on about 15% of all cars. One of these tests is on fuel economy which involves city and highway cycles to see the result on what kind of usage cars have when it comes to fuel consumption. For the year 2008, these tests have changed in many ways and the EPA has revised testing methods because of the introduction of hybrid cars.

                Hybrid car ratings are now calculated using a dynamometer and these results will be shown on labels that will be attached to the vehicles to show what fuel economy estimates there are per model. These ratings make it easier for the consumer to pick the most fuel-efficient hybrid car.

                These days, it’s no big secret that hybrid cars are the most fuel-efficient and it’s one of the reasons why these cars are becoming more popular. But fuel efficiency is a different story with all the model cars that are coming out of the assembly line from various car manufacturers. Some of the most fuel efficient includes the Ford Focus with an EPA rating of 24 miles in the city/35 miles on the highway to the gallon, the Honda Fit with a rating of 33 miles in the city/38 miles on the highway, and the Honda Civic with 30 miles in the city/38 miles on the highway. And these ratings are more different if those cars are automatics.

                It’s these easy ratings that help consumers make the right choice, helping them to pick cars that suit their lifestyles. It is exactly why the EPA conducts its tests and comes up with hybrid car ratings, which is fitting since more people are now making the switch to the hybrid car.

                Find the best hybrid car that suits your lifestyle. Read the best online hybrid car information and hybrid car ratings.

                LEARN THE REAL TRUTH AT rabbithole2.com Bombs, explosions, secondary explosions, explosive devices....how many more times do we need to hear these words being said by 9 witnesses before we start asking questions about what really happened on that awful day? All of the individual news reports in this video can be found on YouTube and other video sites. This video shows that many actual 9/11 witnesses heard and saw explosions going off inside the towers, long before they actually fell. These witnesses include police, firemen and reporters. And what is even more shocking is the fact that all of this has been largely ignored by the mainstream media after the day itself. For those debunkers who wish to keep saying that the explosions were caused by gas lines, please save your breath. All of the three buildings that were blown up on 9/11 were all Class-A buildings. This means that gas lines were not permitted because the buildings had to comply with the safety regulations set out for Class-A buildings. So there were no gas lines! We really need to wake up to the facts and ask questions. If we don't, what does that say about us? Sorry about the sync loss with the audio. All of these news clips are available elsewhere on YouTube as well as in the archives of the main news media sites.

                Views: 2,747,820
                There are three classic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas; however, plasma is considered by some scientists to be the fourth state of matter because of its unique properties. Ionized refers to presence of one or more free electrons, which are not bound to an atom or molecule. The free electric charges make the plasma electrically conductive so that it responds strongly to electromagnetic fields. Plasma typically takes the form of neutral gas-like clouds (eg stars) or charged ion beams, but may also include dust and grains (called dusty plasmas).[1] They are typically formed by heating and ionizing a gas, stripping electrons away from atoms, thereby enabling the positive and negative charges to move more freely. The Radio Instrument Building Research Institute under the supervision of Academician A. Avramenko developed a plasma weapon capable of killing any target at altitudes of up to 50 kilometers. Engineers and scientists of the institute in cooperation with the National Research Institute of Experimental Physics (Arzamas-16), Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute, and Central Machine Building Research Institute prepared a concept of the international experiment Doverie (Trust) for testing of the Russian plasma weapon at the American ABM testing ground in the Pacific Ocean together with the US. The cost of the experiment was estimated at 0 million. According to Academician Avramenko, the plasma antimissile weapon would not only cost tens times less than the ...

Till the skies bleed ashes And the f**kin sky crashes We make ashes just with matches To ignite the flame And all the hopes of a young teen F**kin insane stays the same Take the pill And go get drunk And go get killed Double dose Acid life and acid death Breathing till there is no breath I will not die in the night but in the light of the sun and the ashes of this world in my lungs But who am I to say Lets all just run away Go grab your friends ...

(Chorus) Let's watch this city burn, from the skylines on top of the world, Till there's nothing left of her, Let's watch this city burn the world. My body doused in ash, with two empty cans of gas, The only evidence they have is a police sketch of my mask. And it's hard at times to ask if you can save my heart for last, And it's hard to face the facts when the darkness fades to black. It's not just make believe when they make me take a seat, And they put amphetamines in the air and make me breathe. So come on and grab your children, look out for burning buildings, And villains who pillage, they're killin' by the millions. And billions of people die for a lost cause, So now I pray to my nation destroyed under God. It's the end of the world .... All my battles have been won but the war has just begun. (Chorus) The city looks so pretty do you wanna burn it with me? Till the skies bleed ashes and the fuckin' sky crashes. They catch us with the matches and ignite the flame, And all the hopes of a youth deemed fuckin' insane. They say.....Take the pill, in God we trust, Go and kill, God loves us. As in life, as in death, Breathing until there is no breath. I will not die in the night, but in the light of the sun, With the ashes of this world in my lungs. But who am I to say let's all just run away, Grab your saints ...

                Camaro Dyno-Mite: Hennessey HPE550 Camaro Dyno Smack Down

                MORE HENNESSEY CAMARO INFO @ INSIDELINE.COM: blogs.edmunds.com What's that? You're a power addict and the 426 horsepower with which Chevrolet endowed the 2010 Camaro SS is weaksauce? Here's your fix. The orange 2010 Camaro SS you see above has been given the full Texas-style treatment, and I'm not talking about barbeque. Hennessey Performance Engineering, headquartered in Sealy, Texas, coerces more power out of more than just Mopars and Mitsubishis these days, and he's turned his attention to Chevy's latest pony car. It's called the Hennessey HPE550. The centerpiece of the conversion is the breathing enhancement delivered by a Magnuson Roots-style blower and liquid-to-air intercooler. Supplementing the 6 psi generated by the supercharger is a cold-air intake and free-flow exhaust. Owner John Hennessey tells us that the package swells peak power to 562 hp as measured at the flywheel. Aftermarket horsepower claims are notoriously optimistic, so we did the obvious thing and strapped it to MD Automotive's Dynojet in Westminster, California. The result was anything but weaksauce. Click the jump for the dyno chart and video. First, a caveat. Before we did any dyno runs, we noticed that the insides of our HPE550 test car's tailpipes were curiously free of the typical fine sooty layer that coats every car that runs on pump gas. Instead, they were fairly clean save for a light gray coating.

                Iranian girl , Neda and her father attend a peaceful rally in Tehran before things took a tragic turn. The girl, known as Neda and thought to be 16, has become both a martyr and rallying cry for those opposed to the Iranian hardline government. "Neda, your death will not be in vain," reads one message on Twitter, where her name is being used as a call sign for anti-government bloggers and is one of the site's most mentioned words. The deaths follow threats from Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Friday that fresh opposition unrest would be met with "blood, violence and chaos". Iranian state television is reporting that 10 people were killed and more than 100 wounded in yesterday's violence in Tehran. Foreign media are banned from reporting on non-official events in Iran, where the state censors and regulates the information seen by its citizens and those abroad. But a video clip showing a girl known as Neda, who is thought to have been no older than 16, bleeding to death while frantic attempts are made to save her life has been broadcast across the globe via the internet. Reports from the country say the teenager had been watching Saturday's protests with her father when she was shot by Iran's militia. A message posted with the original footage on YouTube alleges she was intentionally shot in the chest. "I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her," the video's poster said. "But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the ...

                    Fuel Economy Tips for your SUV

                    suvWhen you think about a vehicle specified to optimize fuel economy, the SUV does not necessarily jump to mind right away! Quite the contrary, they are heavier on gas in general (at least that is the perception of most, including drivers, fellow road-users and owners).

                    Managing the costs and rising prices of gas at the pumps is a top priority for most these days. You just have to look at some of the automakers struggling in this category to attract any consumer interest right now, due to the low SUV fuel economy value proposition they provide. For most (even prospective buyers) drivers of SUV’s the comforts afforded and the cost you have to fork out in terms of less miles per gallon or lower fuel economy is just not worth it anymore. It hurts at the pump to fill up your SUV.

                    Optimizing your SUV fuel economy is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity to avoid the pain at the pump. How specifically a vehicle or even sport utility is specified out and driven is how you get the best fuel economy overall. You need the best of both these worlds – both design and use to make the most of SUV fuel economy.

                    Many driving and handling tips in general, will also improve the fuel economy of any other vehicle you drive, but even more-so on the SUV’s.

                    The HUMMER HX concept may ride similar to its predecessors but there are big differences -- including its size and fuel source. The vehicle, which made its debut at the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, is smaller than the brand's current models, measuring 171 inches long, 81 inches wide and 72 inches tall. The HUMMER HX concept also downsized its fuel-consumption, running on a 3.6L V6 engine that can burn E85. General Motors reports three designers, fresh out of school, sketched the vehicle before it was put into production. The vehicle also features a built-in, forward-facing camera that drivers can use to record their off-road excursions, and then replay on the monitor located inside the SUV. While the HUMMER HX concept does not include a radio, it does contain speakers that enable drivers to plug in their MP3 players or other similar devices.

                    CHECK OUT THE CUTE-UTE SMACKDOWN: www.edmunds.com We get it already — fuel prices suck. And while we pity the poor sod who bought a new full-size SUV a few years ago and is now stuck with a fuel bill that has doubled and a vehicle whose residual value makes manure futures look appealing, everyone wants solutions. Sympathy won't heal a hemorrhaging wallet. So what's a utility-lovin' small family to do? Downsize. Full-size SUVs provide unmatched capability but their thirst may make you reassess your needs. Think compact utility vehicle. Think crossover. This doesn't mean you have to downsize your expectations, though. The three compact SUVs we've assembled here — the brand-new 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan and the 2008 Honda CR-V and 2008 Toyota RAV4 — are based on car platforms, a strategy that helps create an efficient utilization of interior space in a relatively lightweight, fuel-efficient package. Simply put, you can pack more stuff inside these compact SUVs than you might think. And being car-based, these compact crossovers offer easier entry and exit and better driving maneuverability than truck-based ones, something you really appreciate when you're running errands around town. Of course, car-based SUVs lack the rough-road capability of their bigger brethren, and you can forget about serious towing. For everyday use, though, a compact ute just makes more sense. We tested a 2008 Honda CR-V AWD EX-L with navigation, a 2008 Toyota RAV4 4x4 Limited and a 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan ...

                    LEARN MORE ABOUT TOYOTA HYBRIDS: www.edmunds.com Guy walks into a Toyota dealer — sounds like a joke so far, right? Not quite. Guy walks into a Toyota dealer looking for a 2008 Toyota Prius. He's heard about hybrids for awhile now, and the Prius is one he knows by name. He vaguely recalls some celebrity bragging about taking one to the Academy Awards instead of a limo, and then there was that South Park episode, "Smug Alert" a couple of years back. And didn't Al Gore's own son make headlines for getting busted doing 100 mph in his Prius? Something like that. Beyond the hype, Guy's never really given hybrid cars much thought, much less gone looking for one. And even though he can afford a decent-size car or SUV, the price of gasoline has him looking for fuel economy in a serious way. And there on the showroom floor, Guy sees a 2008 Toyota Camry Hybrid for almost the same amount of money as a Prius. Now what?

                    CHECK OUT THE X6 HYBRID SPY ARTICLE: www.edmunds.com First shown as a concept at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show, the 2010 BMW X6 Hybrid is now headed for production. Far from a fuel-sipping economy car, this gasoline-electric hybrid is designed to take the edge off fuel costs without giving up much in the way of SUV practicality or performance. Prototypes spotted in Death Valley reveal few significant styling changes from the recently introduced X6 other than an obvious bulge in the hood. Subsequent photos show a maze of electrical connections beneath the protruding sheet metal. All the extra hardware is necessary to control what's expected to be a two-mode hybrid system similar to what's found in GM's current Tahoe and Escalade Hybrid SUVs. BMW partnered with GM and Daimler in the development of the system. The two-mode system essentially combines electric motors with a sophisticated automatic transmission and traditional gasoline engine. It is able to provide pure electric power like a Prius, but most of the time it's a mix of both gasoline and electric power. A fuel mileage improvement of around 10-15 percent is about all you can expect given the added weight of the hybrid system's batteries combined with the X6's already substantial curb weight. With full production of the V8-powered X6 just now starting to ramp up to full speed, the introduction of the 2010 BMW X6 ActiveHybrid (as BMW calls it) is probably at least a year away. Expect a substantial price bump, one that ...

Compared with the 2.7 litre TDV6 engine, which continues to be offered on the Discovery 4, the new TDV6 3.0 litre twin turbo diesel engine delivers a 9% fuel economy improvement (EU combined cycle) and 10% lower CO2 emissions, at the same time as increasing power by 28% to 241 bhp (180 kW); torque increases 36% to 600 N·m (440 lb·ft). The results include a 060 mph time of 9.0 seconds, (0100 km/h in 9.6 seconds), a 24% improvement over the 2.7 litre model. The new engine has been optimised for low-end torque as well as economy, making it possible to activate the lock-up clutch of the ZF HP-28 automatic transmission at lower speed. This reduces 'slip' in the hydraulic torque converter improving both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The higher torque at lower engine speeds also enables longer gearing for more economical cruising. Land Rover's engineers have also transformed the on-road ride, handling and off-road capabilities. The changes include new suspension components, revised steering, larger brakes, improved traction control, and enhancements to the Terrain Response system, which helps optimise the vehicle for different on-road or off-road driving situations. The exterior design of the Land Rover Discovery 4 has been updated, most obviously with smoother and simpler surfaces at the front, including a new, more aerodynamic bumper. Aerodynamic changes to the ...

                    LEARN MORE ABOUT CROSSOVERS: www.edmunds.com We keep a couple seven-passenger crossover SUVs in our long-term test fleet and they're indispensable for carting around kids, terriers and lawn furniture. Of course, we still crack the obvious jokes. We'll tell you that these are minivans with hinged doors, SUVs trail-rated for the Starbucks drive-thru, tall wagons that think they're too good to be called tall wagons. But there's nothing superficial or irrational about crossover SUVs like the 2009 Honda Pilot, 2008 Mazda CX-9 or 2008 Toyota Highlander. All three make good on the crossover promise of a vast interior, easy maneuverability and decent fuel economy. Maybe you're aghast that anyone would need three rows of seating, but maybe you've never tried to cram three toddlers in Britax car seats into a Honda Accord. We have. You need that third row. But if that third row were in a minivan, you might find yourself filling a prescription for antidepressants. This leaves you to consider a crossover SUV of medium-to-large proportions. Just about any current-day crossover will accomplish the basics, but the diversity of this vehicle genre might catch you off guard. Even though the 2009 Honda Pilot, 2008 Mazda CX-9 and 2008 Toyota Highlander seem to match one another airbag for airbag, their personalities are so different that you can't drive them without taking sides.

This hulking, eight-passenger SUV takes up a sizeable chunk of the roadway and its fuel economy numbers top out in the high-teens. It also offers all the luxury and style expected of a Lexus, making the LX570 an obvious choice for well-to-do buyers who need a large SUV or just believe that bigger really is better. The Lexus LX 570 competes with such luxury-SUV luminaries as the Cadillac Escalade, Audi Q7 and Land Rover Range Rover. Lexus hopes its rugged capabilities, luxury amenities and swanky style make the LX570 a success in the ever-shrinking SUV market.

                    FOR MORE CAR VIDEOS & REVIEWS VISIT: www.kbb.com Subaru Forester. Rising gas prices are compelling large SUV owners to turn to small crossovers like the Subaru Forester. An agile vehicle built to handle most anything man or nature can throw at it, the third-generation Forester has a contemporary exterior complemented by a spacious interior and a smooth, quiet ride. With competent four-cylinder Boxer engines and standard all-wheel drive, the Forester offers the capability of an SUV with fuel economy that won't break the bank. This segment has seen a lot of growth in the last few years, but the Forester can go places the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Saturn VUE and Nissan Rogue can't.

Chevrolet's goal is to keep the Tahoe at the top of the full-size SUV sales charts. The Tahoe has long had a lot going for it, including several first-place finishes in its class in the JD Power and Associates Initial Quality Survey. Competing against vehicles like the Ford Expedition and Toyota Sequoia, the new version brings a handsome exterior, luxury-level interior and markedly improved ride and handling to the party.

                    DOES PORSCHE GET IT RIGHT WITH THE PANAMERA? FIND OUT AT: www.edmunds.com Our spy shooters have caught the 2010 Porsche Panamera once again, this time during some hot-weather testing in Death Valley, California. And once again, the upcoming four-door Porsche has left us scratching our heads over its design. Incorporating elements from both the 911 and the Cayenne, the Panamera looks like it's having a hard time pulling off the whole "four-door coupe" idea. The high window line makes it look bulky in profile, while the massive hatchback window does little to slim down the big rear end. We'll assume for now that the car will look far more elegant when all the tape comes off, but for now the Panamera looks like it could take over from the Cayenne as the least attractive Porsche in the Stuttgart company's lineup. Three direct-injection gasoline engines are expected to be offered from the start of North American sales, which now look likely to begin in late 2009. At the bottom end of the scale will be a 300-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 sourced from Volkswagen. Positioned above that will be the Panamera S, with a Porsche-developed 4.8-liter V8 that makes 405 hp. Rounding out the lineup will be the Panamera Turbo, challenging the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG with a turbocharged 520-hp 4.8-liter V8. Porsche has also confirmed it will add a gasoline-electric hybrid version of the Panamera to its lineup in 2010. It is expected to receive an adapted version of the full parallel ...

Billed by Volkswagen as the GTI of compact SUVS, the sporty Tiguan offers roughly the same compact dimensions and fuel economy as the industry leading Honda CR-V, but in a package that is decidedly more sporty and upscale. While the Tiguan offers features unavailable on the CR-V, such as a manual transmission and a massive full-cabin glass panel sunroof, it also costs significantly more. In fact for the price of the entry-level frontwheel-drive Tiguan, consumers could pick up a nicely equipped CR-V EX with all-wheel drive. Still, the 200-horsepower turbocharged Volkswagen Tiguan has many desirable features, including a sophisticated all-wheel-drive system capable of real off-road adventures.

                    MORE 2009 NEW YORK AUTO SHOW @ INSIDELINE.COM: www.edmunds.com The Mitsubishi Outlander GT Prototype, unveiled here at the 2009 New York Auto Show, suggests this mild-mannered crossover may have some sporting potential lurking beneath its staid skin. Mitsubishi starts by massaging the SOHC 3.0-liter V6, lifting output by 10 horsepower to 230 hp while boosting low-end torque. By reprogramming the engine/transmission control unit, the company also was able to enhance fuel economy. To improve handling, the engineers stiffened the suspension and fitted larger Brembo brakes, along with 19-inch OZ Racing wheels and performance tires. The Outlander GT also borrows heavily from the Lancer Evolution, notably the car's mighty Super All-Wheel-Control (S-AWC) system, employing a front limited-slip differential and an electronically controlled 4WD coupling to prevent wheel slip and provide greater all-weather traction. The Lancer provided styling inspiration as well, particularly in front, where the Outlander GT features a new grille, front bumper, fenders and hood, as well as reshaped headlamps, new side sills and rear bumper and a polished aluminum roof panel. Mitsubishi used grained, double-stitched synthetic leather and chrome accents in the cockpit, adapting aluminum racing-style pedals and a sport steering wheel from the Lancer Evo. Audiophiles will appreciate the upgraded Rockford Fosgate system, as well as the new FUSE Handsfree Media Gateway, which combines voice-recognition ...
                    New 2011 Nissan Juke

                    Nissan Juke is set to change the urban landscape... for the third time. Following in the wheeltracks of the Murano large crossover and then the successful Qashqai - the car that three years ago introduced the concept of a crossover as an alternative to the traditional C-segment hatchback - comes its younger brother, the Nissan Juke. Designed to bring a breath of fresh air to the B-segment, Nissan Juke is a distinctive combination of SUV toughness and sporting style. Conceived to inject some masculinity and dynamism into the small car market, Nissan Juke combines a number of seeming contradictions beneath its highly individual lines. Nissan Juke was created at Nissan Design Europe (NDE) in the heart of London, and refined at Nissan's Design Centre (NDC) in Japan. Principle engineering took place in Japan with significant European input and Juke will be built in Nissan's factory in Sunderland in the north-east of England. From a design standpoint, the lower portion of Nissan Juke is pure SUV, with chunky wheels, wide tyres, extended ground clearance and a robust stance. But the top portion is unadulterated sports car, with a high waistline, slim visor-like side glass graphics and a coupé-style falling roofline. The coupé effect is further underlined by the rear doors which have their handles hidden in the frame of the door. Inside, the sports car theme continues with a driver-focused cabin dominated by a centre console design inspired by a motorcycle fuel tank. Finished in ...

Today, more and more families are joining the crossover bandwagon, seeking SUV-like utility and versatility without the expense of a full-size SUV. The Honda CR-V was one of the first crossovers in the American market, and it remains one of the best-selling crossovers in the United States, while at the same time getting bigger, more luxurious and more stylish in its newest generation. Striking a balance in size, expense and fuel economy, the CR-V pleases both parents and singles with its many standard features, sensible design and high level of safety equipment. And while previous editions of the CR-V were more functional than attractive, the newest version ups the style quotient considerably.

                    The Smart car is getting a lot of attention for its small size and style, and now it's earning impressive crash test ratings. In recent Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tests, the 2008 Smart Fortwo, the smallest car for sale in the US market, earned the top rating of good for front and side crash protection. Its seat/head restraints earned the second highest rating of acceptable for protection against whiplash in rear impacts. Smart Fortwo is classified a microcar, meaning it's smaller even than minicars. Weighing about 1800 pounds, the Smart is more than 3 feet shorter and almost 700 pounds lighter than a Mini Cooper. It weighs about a third as much as one of the heaviest vehicles the Institute has tested, the BMW X5, a midsize SUV. As the price of fuel climbs and tougher federal fuel economy requirements kick in, auto companies are expected to introduce more small vehicles to the market. The Smart is the smallest car the Institute ever has tested. "The big question from consumers is, 'How safe is it?'", says Institute president Adrian Lund. "All things being equal in safety, bigger and heavier is always better. But among the smallest cars, the engineers of the Smart did their homework and designed a high level of safety into a very small package."

                    www.edmunds.com Honda knows the difference between revision and improvement, and you can see the evidence in the 2009 Honda Pilot. It looks different, only the same. Or maybe it's the same, only different. But what you can't see are the dozens and dozens of places within this utility package where the Honda engineers have fiddled with the details. It's easy to imagine the Honda engineers swarming over the 2009 Honda Pilot, relentlessly improving space-efficiency, utility, fuel economy and performance. It is the Honda Way, the thorough refinement of a mechanical device into a form that is supremely functional, pure and simple. Only these particular Honda engineers are a bunch of guys from Ohio at Honda R&D Americas, and they've tried to make the 2009 Honda Pilot into the right kind of crossover for Americans.

                    Understanding your SUV and how it works, is designed and functions at its best, will help you make the most of your SUV fuel economy.
                    You can put your own driving expertise and habits to work to further improve vehicle fuel efficiency and economy on your sports utility vehicle.
                    Ensuring that your SUV is in tip-top condition is essential as well to make the most of every mile dollar and gallon spent to travel the distances your specialty vehicle, style, luxury, commute and life demands.
                    Additives, filters and engine tuning can all help to get the most from your SUV in the fuel economy department.

                    By utilizing a gas credit card with rebate program, you might be able to optimize some of the mileage you ultimately have to travel. There are numerous on-going fuel efficiency improvement efforts by both automakers, niche specialists and owners/drivers alike to get more SUV fuel economy that impacts the bottom line positively rather than negatively. Aspects that affect fuel economy like aerodynamics, power train, chassis, wheels and tires (optimally pressurized and well-fit) and electrical systems, energy demands, drag and more all need to be looked at individually and collectively to make the most of fuel efficiency in the SUV category.

                    Smart driving can add as much as one tank of gas worth of mileage to your vehicle and distances traveled every other month, if you are consistent and diligent about it.
