Corn and Ethanol.

[nnuut]

Buy whoever makes Lithium Batteries for Electric Cars, you know the ones that cost more than the car. Because Obama said we would all have to buy new cars (electric).

This is real and a threat to our economy, Ethanol is MORE EXPENSIVE.

Like we've been saying...​

US corn reserves expected to fall to 15-year low​

ST. LOUIS – Rising demand for corn from ethanol producers is pushing U.S. reserves to the lowest point in 15 years, a trend that could lead to higher grain and food prices this year.

DRILL for what is REAL!!!!!!!!!!

FWIW, my friend...
We make up the difference with whatever we can, develop more efficient methods of the winners, then prices will stabilize.
What's the problem?
Us old guys will note this has been an issue beginning when? 1981 ?!?

safe nuclear and solar as energy resource.

This about the only thing Solar you can expect to be practical for the automotive industry except maybe a Solar powered Battery tender...SAFE Nuclear?...Ummm..no such thing and never will be....Hydrogen Cells are on the verge of being practical..but that's will be the extent of SCI-FI energy sources in our lifetime.

Is that a new oxymoron like clean coal?

Or how 'bout Coalectric Cars?

Next true revolution is the electrical car with safe nuclear and solar as energy resource.

[RealMoneyIssues]

Next true revolution is the electrical car with safe nuclear

That could bring a new twist to car accidents... :blink:

 

[TSPIntel]

In my personal opinion. Corn is high because Chine consumption not because ethanol. Next true revolution is the electrical car with safe nuclear and solar as energy resource.

What can I say? 1995 Nissan pu still running great-bought used, owned for 11 years, paid off in 1, limited repairs needed since owning. E85 would make it unsafe to drive out of town very far for fear of breakdown w/o warnng, runs on regular. which is more cost-effective at this point I wonder? expecting to get a few more years out of it before I get something else. by the time E85 is common out here, maybe I'll have saved enough for a flexfuel vehicle-used.

The bicycle is a parody of a wheeled vehicle—a donkey cart without the cart, where you do the work of the donkey. Although the technology necessary to build a bicycle has been around since ancient Egypt, bikes didn't appear until the 19th century. The reason it took mankind 5,000 years to get the idea for the bicycle is that it was a bad idea.

Today I am paying $2.98 a gallon for American made E85 fuel.

For use in my American-made Flex-fuel car.

How about you?

i don't get out much. it's a part of the whole reduce reuse recycle thing.

It's a forage harvester, and the unfortunate truth is that the only thing it's meant to eradicate is corn.​

Ethanol causes innocent deaths?

Biofuel crops were African palm (Palm oil) and sugar cane.


Biodiesel will do it every time. :embarrest:
