What will replace the gasoline ICE? Personally I go with Hydorgen Fuel Cells, but each his own opinion...

What do you mean? I meant the Internal Combustion Engine.
 
Bikes.

long enough. ]
 
Electric cars, of course! Hydrogen? Are you freaking high :smile:
 
Electric cars! Hydrogen will never work.
 
Who voted for bicycles? I don't think so! In a car you can drive from Orlando to Tampa. With a bike... you can't, and even if you are chroot, than it will take you more than a few hours.

With a car i can move cross country in a matter of days. Can't with a bike.
 
Rickshaws, millions of them.

personally. electric sounds the best to me. The only thing people have against electric is that it doesn't have the same amount of power. Which is kinda odd. there is one guy who has a completely electric car and it accelerates faster then most stock porsche cars. and the batteries last very long apparently when using laptop battery technology.

Though a water powered electrolysis then cold fusion car would be definitely interesting. :smile: :smile: :smile:

You simply put the garden hose in the gas tank. and on one tank it lasts roughly 60 years. The stored electricity uses electroloysis to separate the hydrogen and oxygen. Then the cold fusion engine(that I am hiding in my basement :smile: ) will fused a little hydrogen and oxygen together. making helium and such. we then capture the bunch of energy and stuff and zoom zoom zoom. ZOOM ZOOM?
 
You missed out Horses in your poll, that would be my choise.

Oh I do hope so. I do hope so
 
Hey, rickshaws have only minimal greenhouse gas emissions.

Oh so many things that shouldn't be funy are side splitting tonight. *heavy sigh*
 
Do you think they realize that if they just got out and walked, (I mean hey, the guy pushing the rickshaw can't go any faster than they can walk right?) that there would be no traffic on that road, and that white van could get to wherever he needs to go to? Oh yeah, not to mention the confetti of power lines going over all those people, that can't be good. They should at least get a tuk tuk (Gokul knows what I am talking about)

More efficient solar panels coupled with a bioreactor that generates electricity is one of the future possibilities, in my opinion. I laugh at the idea of anything-hydrogen for fuel or fuel-related anything on this planet. Perhaps out there in the vastness of space where its the most common gas laying around stars it is the fuel of choice, but not on Earth.
 
How the heck would hydrogen CE's outperform fuel cells? (why is that an option?)
