I will be in line to buy this bad boy weird looking or not. Air-Powered Car Coming to U.S. in 2009 to 2010 at Sub-$18,000, Could Hit 1000-Mile Range http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/new_cars/4251491.html?series=19 The Air Car caused a huge stir when we reported last year that Tata Motors would begin producing it in India. Now the little gas-free ride that could is headed Stateside in a big-time way. Zero Pollution Motors (ZPM) confirmed to PopularMechanics.com on Thursday that it expects to produce the world’s first air-powered car for the United States by late 2009 or early 2010. As the U.S. licensee for Luxembourg-based MDI, which developed the Air Car as a compression-based alternative to the internal combustion engine, ZPM has attained rights to build the first of several modular plants, which are likely to begin manufacturing in the Northeast and grow for regional production around the country, at a clip of up to 10,000 Air Cars per year. And while ZPM is also licensed to build MDI’s two-seater OneCAT economy model (the one headed for India) and three-seat MiniCAT (like a SmartForTwo without the gas), the New Paltz, N.Y., startup is aiming bigger: Company officials want to make the first air-powered car to hit U.S. roads a $17,800, 75-hp equivalent, six-seat modified version of MDI’s CityCAT (pictured above) that, thanks to an even more radical engine, is said to travel as far as 1000 miles at up to 96 mph with each tiny fill-up. We’ll believe that when we drive it, but MDI’s new dual-energy engine—currently being installed in models at MDI facilities overseas—is still pretty damn cool in concept. After using compressed air fed from the same Airbus-built tanks in earlier models to run its pistons, the next-gen Air Car has a supplemental energy source to kick in north of 35 mph, ZPM says. A custom heating chamber heats the air in a process officials refused to elaborate upon, though they insisted it would increase volume and thus the car’s range and speed. “I want to stress that these are estimates, and that we’ll know soon more precisely from our engineers,†ZPM spokesman Kevin Haydon told PM, “but a vehicle with one tank of air and, say, 8 gal. of either conventional petrol, ethanol or biofuel could hit between 800 and 1000 miles.†Those figures would make the Air Car, along with Aptera’s Typ-1 and Tesla’s Roadster, a favorite among early entrants for the Automotive X Prize, for which MDI and ZPM have already signed up. But with the family-size, four-door CityCAT undergoing standard safety tests in Europe, then side-impact tests once it arrives in the States, could it be the first 100-mpg, nonelectric car you can actually buy?

Every thing is gravy.. I have not had any issues with the new router, I said if I did I would take it back and try another one. Rumpo, thanks I will keep that in mind if I have anymore problems - I already bought the new router. I will gladly drop 80 bones just so I don't have to deal with the frustrations I had with the 3 year old Belkin router. Being able to connect to everyones room makes War a happy man. ;D

DELHI, La. — A call mistakenly made by a victorious video gamer led to his arrest on an outstanding warrant. Authorities arrested Thomas Ballard, 29, of Delhi, early Monday after a woman reported receiving a late-night call from someone saying, "I have killed them all." Ballard's number showed up on the woman's caller ID; he'd called by mistake, meaning instead to get a buddy to talk-up his success in an Xbox game, said Sgt. Julie Lewis, a spokeswoman for the Louisiana State Police. Authorities following up at the address, to investigate whether there had been any foul play, found no evidence of wrongdoing, she said. But they did find, in the process of identifying Ballard, that he had a 5-year-old warrant out of Baton Rouge, charging him with failure to appear on a possession of cocaine charge. Ballard was booked into the Richland Parish Detention Center for extradition to Baton Rouge. "It was weird the way this all came down," Lewis said Tuesday. "This isn't something you could just make up." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft strikes again - LOL that is what he gets for playing X-Box. ;D

This is taken care of thanks everyone. My wife agreed to it even though she didn't know what it was 4 or front alignment she didn't know. I let the parts manager know she should have not asked her that kind of question and he just went silent. He knew he f'd up and fixed the problem. The bill is taken care of by them.

Very funny

I just called and reamed them I am waiting to hear back from them now he is asking his service manager. He worked a full 4 tire alignment in on my wife knowing damn well it didn't need to be done. What a dick... Thanks for the feed back guys.

I had to have the right front tie rod replace on my Impala it is factory warrantied still. They changed it and did an 4 wheel alignment and toe-camber check. Now I am getting charged for the alignment, did the alignment need to be done? Remind you I didn't ask for the alignment.
