OK. I admit it... I dig green technology. Well I dig all technology, but I digress...
I'm curious how emissions vs. gas mileage balance out. For example: My '88 FJ62 gets about 12 MPG on a good day, but has F.I., Catalytic Converters, and all that good stuff. My 914 gets over 2X that, but has no emissions equipment at all. I'm curious at where the tipping point is: 2 stroke scooter vs. compact car 4 stroke scooter vs. compact car etc... I'm even considering trying to build a junkyard/STF electric motorcycle. I'm poor, but have plenty of time and creativity! Comments? -Aaron |
