#136 of 138 100 miles per gallon? by mrhowell May 19, 2008 (5:50 pm)
Has anyone seen the blurb in the news on an Atlanta station about the 20-ish year old guy who tinkered with his Honda hybrid and added a few batteries he bought from WalMart and ended up getting 100+ mpg? Someone told me they saw it on an Atlanta station and he demonstrated how he did it. Can anyone help? I cannot seem to find it and am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Many thanks!

Well my comment to that question is to have the best of both worlds performance and economy. I can be green and still lay rubber. Actually bought this for the wife I drive a 06 GTO. In my opinion until the technology catches up this 05 HAH is awesome! Replies to this message: nowakj66 (Jul 27, 2008 10:19 am)
