$120,000 gone and the electric Lincoln still doesn’t work.

“He took a lemon Hummer doubled the mileage of 9 to 18 using french fried oil. You also might have seen his work on Pimp My Ride where he took the show pick of a ‘65 Chevy Impala, converted the bad boy car to run on biodiesel, doubled the mileage to 25 mpg and increased the hp from 250 to 800. Are you interested? Hell, thats not all. The Impala drag-raced the sassy $100,000 Lamborghini at Pomona Raceway and blew the Italian spaghetti off the road.”

All he did was put diesel engines in these vehicles. Why is everyone amazed?

Because the final drive survived?
