Except that anyone driving a Moonshine  car wouldn't be fit to drive if the air conditioning is on.

And Asa, they had steam engines a long time ago, but consider, where would you get the heat to steam the water? That would just make it a less efficient electric car.

What about using the batteries power to heat the water?

It needs something combustable, my idea was Hydrogen but it is too combustable Example: The Hidenbergh(If you don't know what that is...then shut up!)

I believe you mean hydrogen cars. And they haven't stopped making them, they're just working on how to mass introduce them to the market. I've only seen them get real publicity twice - when they were first shown as a prototype, and then when the finished "skateboard" design was released.

Basically, they take all of the workings of the car and compress it into a 12 inch tall "skateboard", atop which any design you want, ANY at all, can be put on top. You can literally be driving a minivan one day, and a convertable the next if you change them out.

You people are idiots. I said that and you still ask the same question.

We could start a little fire in the engine...

Let me make sure I understnd this correctly. All you need is something combustable to explode and fuck up the piston thingy, right? So why not have particle accelerators underneath the chamber? The battery could produce partical beams that smash into each other directly underneath each piston. They would combine and condense in that position, creating anti-matter, which would immediatly explode coming in contact with air.

Or, how about placing magnets on each piston, and puting reversed-polarity magnets underneath them, so they move themselves. The battery simply regulates the flow of electro-magnetism.

The particle accelerator thing isn't going to work and you know that.

As for the magnets, just another inefficient way of wasting the electricity in the battery. It's basically using more energy to turn the crankshaft than the energy an electric car uses.

I know someone who has a car that runs on grease. He can go to McDOnalds and get free fuel.

No joke.

I believe they were once working on a car that runs on alges or something like that. Living organisms which would be dried and then used as fuel. You can just grow them in your car!

Or, like in that Simpsons episode, an alcohol-powered car.

Actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea. Alcohol is pretty easy to obtain, and cheap to do so.

I agree mostly, but doesn't Alchohol easily set fire...

Also, Osmose Idea was not too bad either, But don't you think that by doing so the car will move to fast... An airplane cylinder is very powerfull, It'll be difficult to make a weak one too...

As for me, I'm to tired to even think of that now.

hmm... Using a fan could work... Hoovers uses fans to move around, All that is needed is energy for the fan.

Else way, Humans could start doing what our great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great (x10000) did, Namely: Walk... Walking is good for you in all ways... :P  Or you could use a Bike (you live for about 80 years, so don't worry about time)

Actually, alcohol is just methane with a hydroxy-part attached on one of the four sides.
