Pete...

You know what they say... To "air" is human!

Think about if we could harness the front end resistance of the Vanagon, and have it compress that air into the storage tanks... are we on the brink of perpetual motion?

Actually, if enough people go to these, or even use them for their daily commute to work... we could cut the demand on gas enough to get the price under $2.00 a gallon again, and then we can afford to drive our Vanagons on longer trips. Frankly, I'd consider adding one of these to my fleet. http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/new_cars/4217016.html
