I would have gone with "magic" or "sorcery" but I guess computers work too.

I guess technically you don't need wings to fly...

Ha! Thanks! Admittedly, this truck is not working hard.

Yes, she ended up being ok. Fortunately, it was so cold that the ice didn't break when she landed on it.

I'm not sure that it was 50 feet but this happened earlier this year in Minnesota. Plus the driver landed on a frozen pond.

This is unfortunately true.

The fact that it makes the same horsepower/liter (and less torque/liter) as an early 90s small block Chevy is concerning (or a late 80s Mazda economy car motor).

A little surprised no one's said anything about it but a 2000cc motor that makes a little more power and torque than my 1800cc Ford Escort from 1991 is a little sad. Either that or something is seriously wrong.

Twin turbo 14 liter 2-stroke diesel V12? Because racecar.*

Obligatory: ran when parked.

You say that but I know of several people that have been stopped by Minnesota Highway Patrol and were denied further transit without a CDL.

I think I understand. You have an aqueous ionized solution that the "battery" converts to some other aqueous solution to create electricity? Interesting.

Ha, exactly what I was thinking. It may run on "salt water" but if that salt water has to be processed in a way that makes it a zero sum improvement, it's not really helping.

I'm curious about what kind of "salt water" this is. I assume there's some sort of purity and electrolyte content that's necessary. It can't be as easy as walking down to the ocean with a bucket and fillin' 'er up is it?

^^^ This. Bikes have awful aero, exposed wheels, tall, they have so many things going against them.
