Run your car on water

Turn your car into a hydrogen vehicle, a water hybrid car; contvert your vehicle to use both water and gasoline as fuel source.

A hydrogen vehicle is a vehicle that uses hydrogen as its on-board fuel for motive power. The power plants of such vehicles convert the chemical energy of hydrogen to mechanical energy (torque) in one of two methods: combustion, or electrochemical conversion in a fuel-cell.

The technology is there and many people are converting their own car or truck to use both water and gasoline as fuel source.

The advantages are:

1) Increase fuel efficiency, possibly double your milage or more.

2) Clean up emissions since your engine would take less gasoline and burn it more    completely, the overall effect is dramatic reduction in harmful emissions

3) Greatly enhance engine power and performance.

4) Remove carbon deposits and prevent future carbon build up resulting in a smoother operation.

5) A calmer, quieter and much smoother engine & gearshifts. This is due to the effect water has on the combustion cycle inside your engine.
6) A longer life expectancy of your engine, especially pistons, valves, rings and bearings.

Buying a Hybrid Car is in!  You are thinking about Going Green, and doing your part for the environment. At the same time you hope to save money on gas.

Even if you are just mulling about the idea of buying a hybrid car, it pays to find out as much as possible about the cost of owning an environmentally friendly, and fuel efficient hybrid car. You need to find out the cost of repairs and the cost of insurance before you buy. Shop around and get some insurance quotes.

Sales of Hybrid Cars continue to rise and the Toyota Prius Hybrid Car just recently surpassed a million cars sold worldwide. When the hybrid cars first came on the market, logic dictated that repair costs would be higher because of the advanced technology.  Cost of repair might decrease as more hybrid cars enter the market, but the fact remains that if a Hybrid SUV and a gasoline powered SUV need the same repairs, the car quotes for repairing the Hybrid SUV will be higher. 

In a similar accident both cars would require similar repairs to the body and the gasoline powered engines, but the Hybrid Car version might need extra work to have the hybrid specific components repaired.

As more and more Hybrid Cars are sold, statistics about the driving habits of Hybrid Car owners become more dependable. Insurance companies will pay close attention to accident rates for hybrid versus non hybrid vehicles to see whether hybrid car drivers are safer drivers than non hybrid car drivers. A preliminary research in California shows this to be the case.

For now however, insurance for a Hybrid Car will cost you more than insurance for the same non-hybrid version of that car. It pays to find out your insurance rates in advance of buying your new Hybrid Car.
