We really need a Model-T of the Future, and I have the feeling it is going to come out of an ecomodder's garage.
This is a SERIOUSLY good idea. After seeing the PBS show -- which was nothing compared to Discovery Channel's Future Car Series -- I'm convinced we could make a show and sell it at a profit, using a college kid with a camera. It would make a seriously interesting reality show documetary.
