Hola Bubba....Speaking of the "Man Who Invented the Internet", have you seen the latest study from Russia's Oceanology Institute that says global warming has peaked and we are now going into a global cooling cycle that will last to the end of this century??? If this is true, it presents an ethical problem to ponder, which is "Will Plastic Man be required to return his Oscar, or will they reclassify his film as the best science fiction flick so that he can keep his little statue? Similarly, will Plastic Man be required to trade in his Nobel Peace Prize for a Pulitzer Prize in fiction? Just spit-balling here and I could be wrong. http://www.debatepolitics.com/breaking-news/26810-russian-study-global-warmi ng-peaked-cooling-trend-coming.html And lastly, will Time Magazine strip Putin of his "Man-of-the-Year" title and give it to Oleg Sorokhtin????? yer "Doubting Thomas" pal living in the tiny, very small, and insignificant village (and it takes a village, you know) of Anybody-But-Billary, Minnesota.

I know the VW Beetle was a success back in the 60s and 70s but that was a different age - people were willing to live/drive without AC, CC, PW, and other convienences - but if that econobox is going to remain econo and not just small it will need to keep the weight off - as someone mentioned - by the time EPA and DOT get thru with it there will be bars in the doors, 15mph bumpers, crumple zones, air bags, collapsing steering wheels, etc - it will find itself with significantly low power or a larger engine will be offered here - with less lofty mpg estimates.

I do think it is important to remember that with all of the technology going into vehicle development these days that it is truly hard to actually get away with the mass marketing of such, shall we say, KaKa. Remember when Hyundai came across the pond? Need I mention that the nearest pedigree in line with this purported piece of crap would have to be in my opinion Kia. Even they are 10yr/100k mile warranty for next to nothing. But then again, a duck is a duck.

But wait when gas gets to $5./gallon and everyone starts to REALLY complain about the lousy fuel mileage and the lack of suitable cars at affordable prices.

Tata, Chairman of the Tata Group and Tata Motors, today unveiled the Tata 'NANO', the People's Car from Tata Motors that India and the world have been looking forward to. A development, which signifies a first for the global automobile industry, the People's Car brings the comfort and safety of a car within the reach of thousands of families. The People's Car will be launched in India later in 2008. Speaking at the unveiling ceremony at the 9th Auto Expo in New Delhi, Mr. Ratan N. Tata said, "I observed families riding on two-wheelers - the father driving the scooter, his young kid standing in front of him, his wife seated behind him holding a little baby. It led me to wonder whether one could conceive of a safe, affordable, all-weather form of transport for such a family. Tata Motors' engineers and designers gave their all for about four years to realise this goal. Today, we indeed have a People's Car, which is affordable and yet built to meet safety requirements and emission norms, to be fuel efficient and low on emissions. We are happy to present the People's Car to India and we hope it brings the joy, pride and utility of owning a car to many families who need personal mobility." Stylish, comfortable The People's Car, designed with a family in mind, has a roomy passenger compartment with generous leg space and head room. It can comfortably seat four persons. Four doors with high seating position make ingress and egress easy. Yet with a length of 3.1 metres, width of 1.5 metres and height of 1.6 metres, with adequate ground clearance, it can effortlessly manoeuvre on busy roads in cities as well as in rural areas. Its mono-volume design, with wheels at the corners and the powertrain at the rear, enables it to uniquely combine both space and manoeuvrability, which will set a new benchmark among small cars. When launched, the car will be available in both standard and deluxe versions. Both versions will offer a wide range of body colours, and other accessories so that the car can be customised to an individual's preferences. Fuel-efficient engine The People's Car has a rear-wheel drive, all-aluminium, two-cylinder, 623 cc, 33 PS, multi point fuel injection petrol engine. This is the first time that a two-cylinder gasoline engine is being used in a car with single balancer shaft. The lean design strategy has helped minimise weight, which helps maximise performance per unit of energy consumed and delivers high fuel efficiency. Performance is controlled by a specially designed electronic engine management system. Meets all safety requirements The People's Car's safety performance exceeds current regulatory requirements. With an all sheet-metal body, it has a strong passenger compartment, with safety features such as crumple zones, intrusion-resistant doors, seat belts, strong seats and anchorages, and the rear tailgate glass bonded to the body. Tubeless tyres further enhance safety. Environment-friendly The People's Car's tailpipe emission performance exceeds regulatory requirements. In terms of overall pollutants, it has a lower pollution level than two-wheelers being manufactured in India today. The high fuel efficiency also ensures that the car has low carbon dioxide emissions, thereby providing the twin benefits of an affordable transportation solution with a low carbon footprint." (hit "Next" to continue with various interviews, etc. where they talk about Jaguar, Land Rover, and more real interesting information.) I didn't really like the Smartfortwo that much. (See www.members.cox.net/kjtar) I don't think I'd buy one given my daily commute, although when I retire to Bugtussle AR I might get one, 'cause I won't be going out that much. Come to think of it, if I'm not going to be driving that much, I might as well get me one o' them Furrarees y'all been talkin' about. If'n yur gonna put the Furraree (SHITBOX tm) on blocks, make sure there's a cupla dogs around on some rusty chain "leashes" to gard it. And, Bombay is now called Mumbai, I think. Just trying to be politically correct. Remember when Beijing was Peking?
