Ford, in partnership with a group of MIT scientists, may be closing in on a radical twin-fuel engine technology that could be production-ready in the next three to five years. According to officials, this engine can deliver diesel-like power numbers with a more reasonable initial cost and without using high-priced diesel fuel and its expensive emissions requirements.

Why are these guys wasting time with this BS when we already know that Hydrogen injection produces more power, increases MPG and only costs about $20 per year? Just ask around. :D

Gas:

26 gal x $3.53 = $92.04

10 gal x $3.24 = $32.40

Total = $124.44

 

Diesel:

26 gal x $4.49 = $116.74

 

I think you may have missed the statement that the tank of ethanol would only need filled approximately every 5000 miles. That would definitely provide a large savings in fuel costs. According to your numbers, that savings would be about $25 per fill up.

Did you even read the entire article or did you simply read the headline and then draw your own conclusions from that? :thumbs:
