I said that first and let me qualify that statement: "...if this vapor injection worked economically the big automakers would be using it."

Your statement skips past what else I said, to follow the money. If it works without breaking into the red, they'll do it just to have a leg up on the competition.

I stand by the statement as originally written. The automakers are not in the business of building cars. They are in the business of making money. Building and selling cars is just how they achieve that.
