On a serious note: Perhaps it was your execution. If you are truly attempting to market this project maybe you should try easing people into the idea rather than shouting it at them right off the bat (as if they should just trust your word for it). I'm pretty sure when the steam engine came out there were plenty of people saying, "No way!" before IT was a hit! They had to bring a LOT of facts to the table!
i agree kat, i have been told that by another member on here trying to sell his goods, that is not the way to run a buisness

Even if you had gutted your ranger overnight, you need more than a few hours of tests to release a new product, because new technologies demand it. I severely doubt you'd be using ancient technology from 5 years ago, to talk about anything older is just plain retarded.

Lord o mighty! I have multiple work computers that I work at, at work, and each time I log in, I have each computer set to a Taylor Swift background. On my phone I have a wallpaper of her (was going to put that one on there) and a skin it sticker on the back of the phone. And let's not forget my laptop at home . Yeah you can tell lol

----------

That, and I like her with straight hair. But either hair style I still like her. I need to be a country singer.

That is a pretty cool animation however it appears to be a s-10.

I also believe you need to go back to school and learn how to market a product. Telling potential customers that their IQ is low doesn't seem to be a good strategy.

----------

Question after watching the video why do you still call it the gas pedal? I am confused I thought it was a electric vehicle?

maybe we can call it the "Volt" pedal?

not to defend this guy but. u can make it so it can recharge by vibrations. its would have to be like one of those shae flashlights that recharges with every shake or in another terms like a alternator the electric contacts will move past eachother and generate an electric field that can be captured to recharge the batteries. it will need a regulator on it or else u could over charge ur batteries and cause a big explosion.

but the big flaw would be the no shocks or springs at all. it must ride like a tank. and the amount of electricity required to run that would be massive making ur 300 mile trip more like 10 miles on bad roads even with the bump generator.

this guys fundementals are right but i just cant see this working to well to many little bugs.

That is charging a capacitor with a very small amount of power to run a very small LED flashlight. There is no practical application to that in an electric vehicle. Attaching a shake-weight battery charger to this would be like pissing in the ocean and expecting the sea levels to rise.

which i said it would not be effective but it would work only it would just suck still. i just stated that it does work. i never said it would work great and charge the batteries.

not starting an argument but i just wanted to get that out there
