[edit] Suggested merge

I suggest that Flexible Fuel Vehicle be merged into this article. It appears to be a stub covering the same subject. I plan to complete this merge by 2006-09-08 if there is no objection and/or a consensus is reached. -- Ratarsed 11:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Done -- Ratarsed 18:45, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inefficiency in flexible-fuel vehicles

Removed a section of text that made fairly strong claims with no sources to support them (the existing reference simply establishes Brazilian law on the amount of alcohol in Brazilian gasoline.

Also, the controversy on whether gasoline mixed with ethanol increases pollution is covered in its own section, and probably shouldn't be repeated elsewhere.

Feel free to revert this edit if you can come up with sources. Obonicus 17:58, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GM Vehicles?

Where are all the E85 General Motors vehicles? I see nothing buy Chrysler and Ford products and I'm sure they're not the only ones. Please add more manufacturers. -Shintsu —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.128.137.184 (talk) 10:23, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Request: Could someone do a page about this book?

Just heard an interview with the guy who wrote it... Energy Victory: Winning the War on Terror by Breaking Free of Oil and just put in a reference to his website but it would be super if someone could read the book and summarize the arguments. Thanks! Dnklu (talk) 03:05, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Worldwide section is US-centric. US section contains international vehicles

This article needs some expert editing. The list of international cars is highly biased towards the North-American market. The US section contains cars such as the Mercedes-Benz C-Class which is available world-wide. Perhaps this should instead be categorised by brand? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.160.2.254 (talk) 06:49, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
