How does the engine seizing make me feel. Well it makes me feel damn good. We all gripe about high prices at the pump, and this is making sure that gas wasters will never make it back into the market. This may save upwards of a hundred million barrels of crude annually. More to the point people shouldn't be driving these Dinosaurs anyway.

For those saying wait. Electric still has storage issues, and fuel cells do not have a commercially viable form of storage yet. So we are still going to be gripped by gas engines for quite a few years yet. So we are still going to have another gasoline generation. I am sorry, but it is going to take more time then you are thinking. Meanwhile keeping the automotive industry healthy will actually accelerate development.
