Buying enough hydrogen to take your car 20, hydrogen car, miles might cost as much, as a $1.60 although with economies of scale the price would come down. Ethanol and many bio diesel blends mean that we have to grow our own fuel, which is a nifty idea however, what about droughts?, hydrogen car, Hybrids make a lot of sense however, currently they are quite expensive, hydrogen car, and there is a waiting list at Toyota and Honda, but there is also a $3400 tax rebate, Hello!
