Default OT, but cool: Neil Young rocks the LincVolt.

<a href="http://s535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/whobuddhanow/?action=view&current=lincvolt-pics.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee359/whobuddhanow/lincvolt-pics.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

"Vision
Our goal is to inspire a generation by creating a clean automobile propulsion technology that serves the needs of the 21st Century and delivers performance that is a reflection of the driver's spirit. By creating this new power technology we hope to reduce the demand for petro-fuels enough to eliminate the need for war over energy supplies, thereby enhancing the security of the USA and other nations throughout the world.

Values
We want to build a zero emissions automobile that eliminates roadside re-fueling entirely, a safe powerful automobile that is comfortable and economic on both long trips and the commute to work, an automobile that can generate power to the home when it is parked, potentially creating an income stream for the owner.

Methods
By working with established technologies in new ways, with the best people and companies available in each field, and creating a film about the innovative re-powering of a 1959 Lincoln Continental convertible and its trip around the USA, we aim to publicize our story of innovation to make a major difference in the knowledge of, creation, and use of clean power in the 21st Century."<ul><li><a href="http://lincvolt.com/">Website</a></li></ul>

They had an article about that in Rolling Stone. IIRC, it currently gets 80mpg : )

Default Neil Young rocks the LincVolt.

Love the look. We saw Neil the other night in Reno... awesome show.

And, to bring it back on topic, we drove to the airport in the Silver 97 D2 A8Q.
