Oil just exceeded $130.00 a barrel today, and I saw regular gasoline advertised for $3.69 a gallon in Brainerd, MN. One publication this week noted a prediction for gasoline to continue to climb to a national average of over $7.00 a gallon in the next couple of years, and somewhere in Alaska folks were already paying around $8.00 a gallon earlier this week!
I shake my head when I hear how hard our government is working toward helping to solve the gasoline and energy crisis. My wife usually hears me blurt out something like, "We have the answer!" The fact is the people in Washington responsible for finding the energy answers know about the Hydro Assist Fuel Cell and Pre Ignition Catalytic Converter technology. In fact, a top official from one of President Bush's committee for finding alternative energy resources has visited Dutchman Enterprises twice. So, why do they not act on this knowledge? It makes me wonder what is really going on...
So, here's the dirty little secret I promised...
Did you know that despite the proclaimed efforts and proud advertising of the big car manufacturers regarding their production of more efficient vehicles, the fact is the engines and fuel are engineered to be about 18% efficient*? That's right, only 18% of the fuel you and I pump into our cars is used to transport us from point a to point b. Where does the other 82% go? Why, it gets burned in the catalytic converter or drizzles out the tail-pipe! Oh, and it slowly destroys your engine.
That means by today's price of gasoline in Brainerd, MN, $3.03 of the $3.69 spent on a gallon literally goes up in smoke without providing any benefit to me or you. That's got to be the biggest rip-off ever. Just think of the thousands of dollars you've lost over the years. And, I believe the car manufacturers and the oil companies know exactly what they've done, and they know they could be giving us much more efficiency.
Bonus - Dirty Little Secret 2...
The car manufacturers have designed their vehicles to remove any improvements in fuel efficiency detected by the system. That's right. If your car suddenly becomes over 10% more efficient for whatever reason, the car's computer kicks in and defeats those efficiency gains. Man... you just can't win!
Dutchman Enterprises has given us a way to respond through the introduction of the Hydro Assist Fuel Cell and the soon to be released Pre Ignition Catalytic Converter. The mini computer, or Optimizer, included in the Hydro Assist Fuel Cell kit links up with the vehicle's on board computer. It trains the car's computer to accept and retain the incredible efficiency gains introduced by the other components of the HAFC.
With the HAFC integrated into the vehicles we all own today, fuel economy sees an incredible improvement of 50% to 100%, and more of that $3.69 spent on a gallon of gasoline is actually used to do what we paid for it to do - power us down the road.

I call BULLSHIT!
The fact the our vehicles are only 18% to 23% efficient is indisputable and is well known. Reference this information, for example, from Washington University; http://courses.washington.edu/me341/oct22v2.htm.
The ability to improve efficiency through the introduction of Hydrogen and other fuel system modifications is yet to be proven to be reliable and replicable.
