RE:"The apparent demonstration of 95 mpg did not impress me" Your questions about the technology are valid. In a short time the answers to your questions will become available. In the absence of those answers, how can you justify your declaration of the technology as a fraud? Perhaps you have another agenda? Are you buying stock today Barbara?

Barbara - You have revealed yourself as an arrogant and uninformed fool! You obviously haven't even begun to look into the company. You see a micro-cap startup that gets a lion's share of market attention and bad press and you immediately jump onto the thread and proclaim 'Hey - losers! It's a scam!' Wow - boy, that impresses me... Gee, and you even know about shorting, oh, please tell me more... MM are the only ones who can short a non-marginable stock? WOW - you must REALLY be smart! You know, this is the first time than someone has made me angry enough to 'flame' - and believe me, there are plenty of idiots who post here, so you are in good company. What kills me more than anything are people who love the sound of their own voice. Grow up! I welcome tough, honest questions about a company. If there is some negative factor in a company that I may have overlooked, then I want to hear it. Check out my posts on other threads and you will see how I have defended posters who question a company's actions. If you did even the slightest bit of research into BAT, you would have discovered that the technology is one such that it would add very little overhead to the mass production of existing engines. You would have also 'uncovered' the fact that this technology is strongly targeted at commercial vehicles - where EVERY LITTLE BIT IF SAVINGS GOES TO THE BOTTOM LINE. These trucks need complete rebuilds every several hundred thousand miles anyway - so the rebuilds could easily include the BAT mods for little extra costs. You bring absolutely nothing to this thread. Where is your data - specific to the company? Who cares what other companies have done! How does this apply to BAT? - same management? same sector? same moon phase? You have the right to post as many messages as you want to this or any thread, however understand that you only show your lack of intelligence and professionalism every time you hit 'submit'. Congratulations! You have made my 'garbage' list - don't bother to respond because whenever I see your name I will hit 'next'. I wish you luck, as an investor and as a human being, you need it JohnnyH

If the BAT Super Car was mass produced, the cost of the engine modifications would be zilch, because those modifications would be incorporated in the manufacturing process. The cost of retooling is another factor. For instance, GM has been using some of the same sand casting tooling for forty years to make some of its engines. Whatever company supplied the diesel engines would have to invest in some retooling. Typically diesel engines run and run and run. It is nothing to see a Mercedes diesel powered car with over 250,000 miles on it and the owner talking about putting another 250,000 miles on it. The Super Car was optimized for the test with tires inflated to 50 psi and only 3/4 of the diesel rack was being used. The test was run at 40 mph to simulate driving conditions in the foreign countries that this technology is aimed at. In some of those countries, there is a 100% tax on imported automobiles. Yet many drivers would jump at the chance to pay $60,000 for a car that got twice the fuel mileage. We live in a country with relatively low taxes and take a lot of things for granted, like cheap fuel. BAT addresses the problems of high fuel prices, slow cruising speeds and congested streets in foreign cities. If the BAT Super Car was built for the US market, expect it to get closer to 70 miles per gallon on the freeway. And, with the economies of mass production, I would expect this car to sell for close to $20 K.
