          E-Benzin not only lacks petroleum, but also sulfur and benzene meaning it burns extremely clean. It’s also rated at 100 octane and allows higher compression ratios for engines. Not to mention an increase in efficiency

            That is huge.  I've been following this and if this is a viable option then it could potentially save the internal combustion engine from extinction in the next 30 years.  I wonder what is used to make it though and how precious is that material?

              "Bioenergies scientists will continue to modify e-benzin so that it can be created purely out of water, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and sunlight."

              I'm sure there's more to it than that but this would be a perfect renewable source.

                      Sounds too good to be true. All alternative fuel sources have their own "skeleton in the closet". Ethanol the govt subsidized beast, what a fail... not to mention raising the price of corn, which raises the price on pretty much everything else (meat, anything containing corn syrup, etc etc ).

                      Electric cars are great, I'd love to own a Tesla. But where'd the electricity come from? More than likely, a coal plant.

                      They need to bring nuclear plants back. Far safer than tree huggers claim them to be.

                      I'm sure e-benzin has a skeleton or two.

                            Went to drop the alcantara off to get my driver seat repaired finally. I drove up to find that they closed up shop and the building was empty. I added the guy who was running it on Facebook and sent him a message

                                  Ace Auto Trim in West Bend by us. I found out where the guy works now so I will be paying him a visit to see about getting my seat back. If it was thrown away I probably won't be posting on this forum for a while...lol

                                    I don't understand why places jump ship without notice. The least they could do is call and say hey we can finish this cause we're done doing business, come grab your stuff.

                                      ^Exactly my thoughts. The only other things I can think are that they wanted to jump ship on that location but still do the work or they just made a spur of the moment decision to bail. Either way a call by now would have been nice. They left out a week ago if I recall correctly. I talked to the neighboring business that actually is in the same building and does canvas upholstery. The guys owe him money so he knows he will never heard from them again. He said a lot of customers have been coming in lately saying that Ace Auto Trim had their stuff.

                                          Wow, it was Ace?  They've been around forever.  I know the son was a douche, drove around in a white mustang convertible with a NOS tank bolted to his roll bar.  Wouldn't run me in my Turbo neon....this was back in the late 90's, don't judge, hahaha.

                                          They were pretty successful for awhile, I remember as a kid, they had a Tucker sitting there for reupholstering.
