    Hydrogen technology has always intrigued me. I remember a while back Honda was really pushing that hard but seems to have gotten caught up into the Duracell generation.

    I remember seeing the film of the Hindenburg. I wonder if the Hydrogen tank will withstand a crash.

    There has to be something holding it up because the technology is there. But at the same time lithium batteries can be quite dangerous. They are known to explode without cause and warning.

    Wow - I want to see the 15-liter engine and hear it run. We'd probably see the 6.7 in a Dodge.

    When Wifey and I were in Iceland in 2008, we were impressed by how many hydrogen-filling stations they had. I don't recall how much it cost.
