Hi everyone, I just realized I jumped the gun by starting a new thread without properly introducing myself, sorry about that! So, here goes: I am 28 years old, and I live in the Netherlands - gas prices have recently increased from 'crazy' to 'troubling', quickly approaching US$10/gallon when the exchange rate is taken into account. This makes me think about more fuel efficient transportation. That's why I started the thread "Designing for Efficiency" - I'd love to self-design and (hopefully) build a small, fuel sipping commuter vehicle to ease the pain at the pump. I'll be doing a lot of browsing and reading through hundreds of interesting posts.. I will probably also be asking a ton of questions - sorry if some of them seem noobish, I am new at this, after all..

See you guys around!
