gas mileage

A friend of mine from YouTube just asked me whether or not he should replace his totaled car with a MINI Cooper. This is actually something I think about quite a lot. Would it be better for me to just drive a very small car than to get a hybrid?

While not exactly the first person you think of when you contemplate green driving, Gov. Schwarzenegger is doing quite a bit to help out, even buying green muscle cars. The latest event is that he’s actually giving you tips on how to drive more greenly.

I've been waiting for this picture for so long. Look at her...isn't she a beauty.
I've been a fan of the ultra-sleek look of the Honda FCX Clarity since I first got to gaze upon one last year in Los Angeles. So when I heard that Honda would be basing its new hybrid design on the Clarity I was thrilled.

EcoGeek went live more than two years ago with no fanfare and no traffic. We had a readership of about five people. Three days later, I received the first notice of a breakthrough water-powered car that would solve our energy problems. Those emails have not stopped since.
We wrote a while back about why getting power from water is entirely impossible. But we didn't apply it directly to cars...so here we go again.

There's no doubt...diesels are better. Producing more power per gram of CO2 released, new advanced diesel engines can return similar mileage gains as hybrid cars without the pesky dual drivetrain.
