  • I'm not gonna be drawn on the bitching, the man's trying to do something good... will he succeed? Maybe, maybe not. 2 things are certainly true. 1) He's trying which is a damn sight more than half the people who are bitching have/will do. 2) 'Americans are big'.

  • i really think this guy is trying to help save the world from wars and low oxygen levels we now have.

    if i buy a pinto and put a electric motor in it cost me a lot less than a goverment motors(GM) chevy volt.i think id rather be seen in a pinto anyways.neil picked out a cool car.

    id like to thank these men for their time,money,and hard work.they need our support,the world needs their support.we need more men like them not little boys who want to throw sticks.

    thanks guys

see all

  • If each of us made attempts to do the same in our respective areas on work, we would all be making for a better world. . example, as a pest control operator I would like to see agriculture and consumers use less and less pesticide, as no person actually knows the long term effects of these.. I want to put companies like mine out of business, by educating my customers to other control methods that can be used in addition to chemicals.Reducing exposure is key. Americans just want to SPRAY THINGS

  • Thank you, Neil.

  • Yes. It's Neil Young's fault America's car industry's fucked. Absolutely nothing to do with America's greed for the cheapest possible cars and their unwillingness to invest themselves in producing this. Does he know about cars any more than you and I? Maybe not. Should it offend you that he's try? Definately not.

  • "smoother"?? ... that's defined by the suspension, bogey, transmissions ... the advantage of electric motors indeed is a high degree of efficiency (which is obsolete, as the current is produced in power plants with an efficiency of ca. 35 %) and the high torque at low revs.

    "Cleaner"??? Why??? Because no CO2 comes out of the pipe?? How stupid must one be to think that this car is "cleaner" then???

  • Hmmm... everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion I guess. Although filmed driving tests of Lincvolt have been available on the internet for some time now. There's even a new 43 minute film of Young driving it to his latest album music on the Jama website. It's a smoother and much cleaner running machine than today's conventional automobiles. Yet I see an empirical argument lacking decent manners and consideration being waged here, so I'll bow out. Good luck to you.
