It isn’t an allergic reaction or anything… not like my friend (Erik) who gets gas when he drinks beer. This is actually ethanol that is made from beer making byproducts. Sierra Nevada is making the ethanol from water, sugar, and yeast… allowing waste recycling and a green fuel source. Now…
The entry-level 2010 Ford Fusion is powered by a brand new 2.5-litre Duratec four-cylinder matched to a fuel-efficient six-speed automatic transmission. It should sell for about $22,000 and is due in the spring. Will I finally be able to buy American again? I haven’t had an American car since high…
