So Is AWater To Fuel Conversion The Real Deal?

If we the general public can accept that a major change in the fuel system of our vehicles is available to us NOW then why are governments all around the world not joining in the fray in support especially so considering that delegates from the majority of countries 180 around the globe made such a fuss about attending a huge “freebie” on how to combat global warming and carbon gas emissions on the paradise island of Bali in Dec ’07.

Just one little point here every taxpayer in those 180 countries has been paying tax each year to send those delegates to these conferences held in various locations annually around the world since the 1997 Kyoto meeting. While all this talking at conferences has been going on how has it affected most people so far; whilst fuel prices have had a dip or two over the years we are now paying record prices at the pumps for our motoring fuel while carbon gas emissions and global warming still go on regardless.

Cars have been around now for approx. 100 years the engine of the car has hardly changed its basic conceptthat it requires either petrol or diesel to operate.
While there is new technology being discovered every day in all fields:medicine aerospace food manufacturing agriculture etc: why on earth do we not accept that the technology of the car engine moves on. Basic answer governments and big business the oil companies do not want any change. Well on this ocassion they have one big problem that makes opposition to the waterfuel conversion movement more difficult in that its no one person holding a patent or registered design because its all open information. It doesn’t need development money as its here with us NOW.

When watertofuel conversion companies can tell you for a very small price how to make your own kit or you can purchase a full diy kit and have it fitted for a reasonably small sum how are the big boys going to substantiate their argument for not getting on board and for not only reducing the financial burden of owning a vehicle but also to play a major part in improving and not further destroying the environment of our planet.

One should not be naive and underestimate government thinking. Who knows if they do think that the waterfuel conversion system is the “Real Deal” they will already be planning to make up the lost tax revenue resulting from less fuel purchased at the pumps.

The only way to win in this situation is to take advantage of the technology involved in the waterfuel conversion system and enjoy the benefits of much improved fuel consumption for your motor for years to come while making a positive contribution to the enviroment by causing less climate change through reduced gas emissions. It should be carefully noted that governments worldwide are now reviewing imposing draconian taxes on vehicles emitting above limit carbon gas emissions.

Bmw X6 Disguised

For the first time World Car Fans an auto Website has seen the BMW X6 offroad coupelike crossover barely disguised. The initial spy shots of the forthcoming BMW X6 a crossover SUV were taken late in 2006 around BMWs Munich headquarters.

Meanwhile The Car Connection another auto Website claims their spied photos are confirming BMW’s official statement made at the last Geneva Motor Show.

The X6 has camouflage coming off as well as the sloping coupelike roof line as Bavarian carmaker is about to attempt extending the X5 model range with an additional 4×4 “coupe” which is based on the same platform.

In this circumstance the word “coupe” does not mean a twodoor but as in Mercedes CLS500 marketing jargon a sporting model with coupelike roofline though it has four doors.
The Car Connection saw the first developed X6 doing laps at Germany’s famous Nrburgring. These early development mules have a wise modular frame that allows all weight and critical items to be put differently and in small steps to find their optimum position for excellent riding handling steering and convenient. Also the mules give quick access to the suspension geometry springs dampers and steering which all can be varied and finetuned.

BMWs aggressive application of the fourdoorcoupe concept which was first seen on the Mercedes CLS to the SUV/Crossover genre made the vehicles detail particularly more interesting. In the market now are many performancetargeted SUVs on offer. But the X6 is taking a distinctivr styling approach which appears to be the most emulous formoverfunction SUV design effort seen so far in the history of the auto industry.

In the spy photos the X6 roofline begins arching downward after the Bpillar and continues plunging right to the X6s rising waistline. The result is that the secondrow headroom and rear cargo volume are both severely compromised. The new X6 will be longer and lower as compared to the new X5 but this crossover is expected to accommodate only four passengers. Nonetheless what the sporty X6 loses in seating will be gained in performance. BMW fans need to wait until sometime next year as the X6 goes on sale.

The test mule has a nonproduction body that is made as simply as possible to shelter the mechanical parts. The spied car offers no indication of the final vehicle’s styling or design.

This extension to the range is reported to be a sporty looking crossover with four passenger seats. It is equipped with frontmounted engines ranging from a V8 with either 340 hp or 450 hp to a V10 with 612 hp.

By offering a high seating position and fourwheel drive BMW would have no direct competitor at least initially. But the Bavarian car maker only owns the throne until Porsche brings on the Panamera a fourdoor coupe which is due 2009.

Like the current and the next X5 the new X6 will be made in South Carolina U.S.A and is scheduled for release in 2008.

The company also makes BMW 325ci parts.
