It is not the Car or Oil companies keeping high mileage cars from the USA, it is Government Regulations Alone. The Local, State and Federal Government make many times more per/gal than the Oil Companies do. Oil Companies make .06-.10 cents a gallon on fuel...the Average Tax on fuel is @.50 cents per/gal. Ford alone builds a dozen cars that get over 40mpg, with one getting @60; but because of Federal Regulation, you cannot get them here.

Don't blame the Oil Comp....It's the Government.

regarding your comment on site about katrina, yeah i had seen that coming as well. i filled 4 55 gallon drums with unleaded. ( i make my living on the road. ) it took the edge off of that raping in fuel prices. granted price of fuel, pays for cost of oil 2fold. both in last shipment, and following. why prices fluctuate. but kat was a raping, which was unnecessary. could have routed fuel delivery thru various ways to keep it coming undisturbed

@agent0ran9e this HHO scam theyve got going now. claims it s gets your vehicle some ungodly fuel economy but cannot prove it. at least nobody has yet

[yamahonkawazuki]

@Bravo21 this is true. government makes hte money while oil companies shoulder the cost of getting the fuel. but i agree wiht you. ive worked in teh petroleum industry. i know this from all directions. this guy has the right idea though. granted his trucks wont win races, btu will run, damn near forever.

I like this guy. He's funny: Just keeps on talking no matter what.

That being said, this is a great idea. There are plenty of good engines out there just looking for a home. This is a good way to make that happen.

ok, i dont want a 93 f150 with a nice 4 cylinder perkins in it. whats the deal with that creepy kid handing him the cracker box dip trap? what the hell is a cracker box dip trap? and why would somebody put a pickle jar with diesel in it with wires coming out of it? lol

Dude, you totally crunched that toy car at 2:58 sec. Take that Detroit!

Seems like the car manufacturers are chompin' at the bit to offer diesels here in the States. Useless bureaucrats are trying to regulate businesspeople out of business, and yes, there are quite a few in Big Biz who are using government to squeeze productive people, but they can't do it without the aforementioned bureaucrats with their laws and their ranks of armed goons.

My cousin owned a Ford tractor dealership when I was a teenager, back in the 1960's. They sold the crap out of those Ford 5000 tractors. His son, my best friend, still has two of them on his farm. They will both run all day long for almost two days on ONE single tank of fuel. I have a 35hp Kubota. It uses one tank, 9 gal every 10 hours. Almost a gal an hour. I would trade it in a heartbeat for a new 5000 if it were possible. I believe this guy's deal. I know what a Ford tractor engine will do.

Next time just record your video next to a speaker blaring music

Awesome, great job! But you gotta be very careful. Many people who have figured out how to "beat the system" have been killed, bought out, or silenced in the past. Oil companies do not want people driving around in vehicles that get that kind of gas mileage. Check out films on documentarywire dotcom and google video called "who killed the electric car", and "gas hole" and learn the truth. This man is right congress and big oil will never create high mpg vehicles, that would be self destruction.
