What if cars got better mileage? What if they got on average 50 miles to the gallon or even one hundred miles to the gallon? Can you imagine the difference on the American Family who is now paying on average one hundred dollars more per week for their fuel? Can you imagine how much you personally would save? What do you think the amount would be? If your car gets twenty-five miles per gallon and all of a sudden you started to get one hundred miles to the gallon that is four times as much isnt it? Wouldnt that be good? That could amount of money would you save? It would be the same as cutting the cost per gallon by 75%.
What if we introduced new materials to make cars lighter so they got about 40% better mileage? What if we had better and more efficient engines, which picked up another 30% fuel efficiency? What if we took our present technologies and got them into the new cars starting this year? What if we took all of our aerodynamic knowledge and put them into every new car to increase the efficiency and fuel economy by another 15%? What if you were careful about the way you drove and did not step on the gas pedal as much? What if you used cruise control as much as possible? What if you coasted to the stops and then only slowly accelerated and increased you fuel economy by 15%? Well so far we have got 50 miles to gallon from your 25 miles to the gallon and we are already half way there. Think on this.
