How do we save the mustang?

looks destined to go into a Mach 1 -true shaker hood and everything.

It is here

cool. As a I said… a little less worse.

an uphill battle for sure. Hydrogen has similar infrastructure drawbacks to EV. But worth investigation and associated investment - at least as mush as ev.

They keep shouting at the sky but meanwhile the world moves on without them.

let’s revisit in a few years. Be interesting to see how American ingenuity shakes out where the v8 is concerned.

Hydrogen for cars has been around for a long time. We get a blip here and a blip there but other really substantial. That saiid, this could really be the best of both worlds. But the entire industry would have to get behind it and I'm not sure there are enough profit dollars for that to happen.

Oh man! That sounds soooo amazing!

“hey siri… drive real fast down this track for me..”

Oh wait…

This is one of the reasons i went and ordered my 24GT… I recognize where we’re headed.

I would look up more recent information on Toyota's hydrogen V8! Didn't age well!

Hydrogen ICE is of use in plant machinery and larger trucks

For cars FCEV is the only way Hydrogen will get used. The reason is FCEV is the same basic platform as EV, (FCEV use electric motors for drive) so adding a fuel cell to an EV is easy.

Hydrogen infrastructure is really poor in most countries at present

Sure, more than happy to revisit in a few years.

Nah! I'm just going to enjoy my V8 now. The future is too far away.......

toyota had an infrastructure plan, but it crumbled. Is a decent path forward, but possibly not practical. And certainly has ground to make up where power conversion is concerned. So it remains worth the R&D, but mass viability is unknown. And the thought of car accidents affecting compressed hydrogen is rough. But gas even more so snd EV fires are frightening. Always a scare in there.

interesting theory.

Way ahead of you buddy. I’m usually up to speed on R&D and outcomes.

Rather enjoy now AND the future.

Now&Later.

hmmm. Now I need to go buy some candy.

Odd considering some of your lack of understanding but noted
