No one ever said going green was about common sense.

Looks perfectly fine to me!

Finally, a practical use for the Pontiac Aztek.

Shades the car and charges the batteries!

2013 Chevy Volt.

Last year's model got 38 miles per charge. This year we are proud to announce 40 miles between charges or X-Class solar flares.

FORWARD

ReVolting!!

Egbert REALLY had invented the car of the future...

It will be completely useless, UNTIL they invent See-Through Solar Panels.

New Eco mode: one mile per week (If the sun is out)

The Chevy Ampere!

Watt's this?

When Elmer signed up for "Pimp My Ride", little did he know it was going to be an electrifying experience...

Seriously, this sort of thing is available for viewing at the Floriade exhibition, in Venlo, Holland:

The Dutch seem to be going boldly towards a low-carbon future.

Is that a low carbon steel tree the man is standing on?

Best go and find out.

A grand example of "Form Follows Function".

Bubba had heard that sun tracking increased efficiency and came up hith his own version with stuff around the house.......

Tweedle Burgermeisterchukskilov, Director of Product Development at George Foreman Enterprises, proudly introduces the penultimate version of "The Grille". "The last thing we need to figure out", he was quoted as saying, "is how to get that grease into the fuel system. Can you imagine the smiles when people smell breakfast sausages as the vehicle rolls by? Eco-friendly and mouth watering at the same time! Yummy!"

I go to the gas station once every 3 months! But I walk there

Chrysler has finally came out with their "OhCrap" EV minivan...to complete with equally crappy Chevy "Volt"!

But how long is the extension cord running back to the house? I suppose that's an EXTRA you are forced to buy from the automaker.....

We visit the home of a leading climatologist.. his bumper sticker actually reads "more money than brains"

Unable to mount the panels on the roof of his house, Joe settled on the wifes minivan instead.

The divorce is pending.....

I had often wondered why, given the size and flexibiilty of the platform, that Chrysler had never built an electric/hybrid Caravan.

Now I know.

Ya know, it almost looks like it has panels on a trailer behind it as well.

This reminds me of a friend who put a snowplow blade on his 1966 Shelby GT350. He was always the first done with his driveway!

Your friend did WHAT?!?!?!?!?

Yeah, its a sight, I'll post the picture i have next week.

I'd like to see what he puts in the trunk for weight?!

Microsoft launch their first all electric car with virtual reality heads-up display. In the event of problems close Windows and restart.

"1.21 JIGOWATTS!!!!!1.21 JIGOWATTS!!!!TOM, IT CAN'T BE DONE, CAN IT!!!"

Now I understand that pesky "Solyndra" thing.............

How to get Bam Margera off your roof.

Wait a second guys, I think we may have lost sight of what we set out to accomplish!

You have it all wrong,

This guy just got home after buying the solar panels from home depot.

Here's after his second trip from HD after he unloaded the solar panels....

The bugs in my teeth show how happy I am over the gas mileage! -- JHF

Chrysler's new Minivan "soalpower" enlightening your soul with power by up lifting you from rising gas prices.

At least this application may quite seem to first appear to be somewhat aerodynamic, what with the assembled array closely following along with the flowing lines of the minivan as a foundation. _{(and the rear spoiler looks really sick, man! Too bad it,s FWD., dude.)}

However; with the vortex turbulences along with winding drag effects anticipated to be created when proceceeding in the forward direction (following the arc of the sun on a cloudless day), at a reasonable rate of road speed, let's say 50 MPH, the end result may negate, and possibly diminish any potential advantages that this brainiac was probably anticipating.

Only time, as well as further detailed and more scientific analysis will tell.

^{(Oh well - Back to the proverbial drawing board/beer fridge).}

Jed put so much thought into if he could do it, he didn't think about if he should do it.

That's one way to get around the zoning laws about having a non-functional car in the driveway.

Apparently Bubba, the solar panel installer, didn't quite understand what the owner wanted when he asked Bubba about 'ramping up' the car's energy with Solar Power.

Best of all, the grill mounted, forward looking camera and dash mounted display are powered completely by the attached solar panels, saving wear and tear on your vehicle's charging system.

Cr4 has a tendency for reruns....... Or everyone here is senile were everything old is new again.

You get a GA on recycle!

But surely this is recycling?

No that's bi-cycling

"Haven't we seen this one before?"

That was the version before texting, when people actually looked through the windshield.

Who needs a windscreen, as long as you can see the Sat Nav?

Ah, so this is how we get the power to work our HHO injection!

Yellow ATV... $6,999

Pickup truck to haul ATV... $23,499

ATV solar battery charging station to pull behind truck...Priceless

This is an emergency evacuation slide for the next door neighbor. In case of fire the neighbor climbs out of 2nd story window, runs down his roof, jumps to this guys roof and then slides down the top of the car.

"The shape of things to come, TR7"

It just won't die,

Hold your tongue!

Triumph Returns under the BMW umbrella?

I must say I loved my TR-4a cars.

That was one of the best. I was always a huge Triumph fan, especially the Stag, GT6, Spitfire, and even the Dolomite Sprint. Sadly it all went to pot under British Leyland, and as far as I'm concerned the TRs finished with the TR6.

I loved the styling of the TR-4a as opposed to the TR-6. The TR-6 tail was really good, but the TR-4's bonnet and grill always looked better.

The TR-7, well, if you can't find something nice to say...

Doubt the TR-4a would provide the same magic as it did when I got out of high school.

Like I said, I just won't die, It's returning one piece at a time........

Hey, didn't Johnny Cash write a song about a guy that built a car that way?

It high School, I loved the TR7. goes to should what a dumb kid I was, It should have been the TR8, Marketing was focused on the wrong group. Kids, that had no money!

They should have invested instead to improve the design and quality

"50 worst cars of all time" .......aahhhh, make that 51
