Anyone remember the Briggs and Stratton Hybrid? I remember reading about this concept car as a kid in Car and Driver (or maybe it was Road & Track). The car had six wheels and was designed by Brooks Stevens. First time I'd heard of the concept of a hybrid..

Oldsmoboi, I am glad we have another railfan here at C and G.

As far as cars go, I prefer diesel to hybrid. A Hybrid car makes no sense to me, as it takes a certain amount of energy to move a certain amount of weight, and a Prius isn't that far off of a 1960's Bonneville in what it weighs.

Ja! But i like the XXI because the diesels only served to charge the batteries, and it was very fast for its day.

Just saw a 68 Charger R/T this weekend during a rural drive with the family.

BADASS car...the likes of which we will never see again, methinks.

This is one area I have to disagree with 'Camino. The Charger (current gen) is growing on me.

That said, If I spell relief with a V8, it's going to come in a Camaro or Challenger.
