So does the Camry Hybrid (we have one), last time I looked the 3rd highest mileage production car sold in the USA...All Priuses have CVT, and I think the Altima does too??

Also, while this is apocryphal, I've read of a permaculturist that extracts oil from hazelnuts and combines that with hard apple cider (courtesy of his orchard). The apple cider performs the role of the methoxide in separating the fuel without causing anything more than a hangover. It's on my list of things to research to see if there's any truth at all to the story. There was no mention of running on water in that story so it's a bit promising.
Hazelnut oil..........Hummmmmmmm. At $72/gallon that better be some really good biodiesel.
My brother says he's averaging 36 mpg with his.
On his what?
the Jetta might be a better more reliable choice. [\quote]
Wow, you realy think a VW will be more reliable than a Toyota? Seems quite unlikely, given the data.

Actually, VW diesels are some of the most reliable ENGINES out there. Of course, that comment doesn't take into account the transmission, electrical, body integrity, and other issues they have been battling............
Just like the legendary slant 6: great engine stuffed into abominable cars.
I've got a Murano with a CVT.
Funny that the Murano is actually a "French design" (via Renault. For info concerning their "joint CVT") see:
Green Car Congress: New Nissan/Renault Fuel-Efficient Gasoline Engines and CVT
BTW, as a disclaimer, I used to work for a former subsudiary of Renault Car, so I laugh when folks talk about how "French products" are so bad (yes they were, in the distant past) but how good cars from Japan are ...

What about Citroen and Peugeot
