Maybe the conspiracy theorists were right after all.
That was the first thought to pop into my head as I read about an engineer named Steve Fambro -- and his 400 mpg hybrid Aptera two-seater. Yes, you read that right. 400 MPG. Why couldn't GM -- or Toyota -- build something like this? Count me among the conspiracy mongers. If the Aptera's not a complete fraud, then something's fishy. If a lone engineer and a small start-up company can build something like this -- something even close to this -- then it's hard to to believe that a major automaker with literally billions in R&D facilities and teams of engineers could not do at least as well. And should have been able to do it at least as well years ago. Something stinks here. Trust no one. |
