The 1987 Ford Mustang
Pelmear claims that the engine in his Ford Mustang was first invented by his grandfather sixty years ago. His engine, he claims, burns gasoline, but because it has been made highly efficient through electronics, it can achieve excellent gas mileage. Pelmear has entered his vehicle in the contest for the Progressive Automotive X Prize, a $10 million award given to the individual or company that can invent a car that is affordable, marketable, and gets over 100 miles per gallon.Kare11.com: Mechanic Claims Car Gets 110 Miles a Gallon (July 2, 2008) -
