Making car engines run off hydrogen is easy. Probably could be done with little more than a firmware upgrade of the computer and a swap out of the exhaust system for stainless steel (hot steam can be rather corrosive).

The problem is storing enough hydrogen safely to get 300 miles per fill up. Americans seem to require a magic 300 miles per stop, otherwise electric cars that get 80-100 miles per charge would be an easier sell. (This is in spite of the fact that 80-100 miles is longer than almost everyone drives on nearly any given day.)

That explains my car. It gets 34mpg or so, but only has a 8.5 gallon tank, so it maxes out at 225 miles or so (depending on where I'm at).

Also, compressed hydrogen is already less dangerous than gasoline, but the general populace doesn't know that.

and won't believe it - its damned near impossible, with studies, to get people to believe that coal factories give off more radioactivity than even nuke faculties...

34 mpg timex 8.5 gal tank = 289 miles. Thus you should be getting 35.3 mpg...I suggest you check your tires, they may be under inflated, or do you drive fast and do jack rabbit starts
