although they've been working on vehicles that run on ethanol for more than a decade, ford motor co. and general motors corp. are now making an aggressive push into the alternative fuel. last week, gm ran its first national advertising campaign promoting one of its so-called flex-fuel vehicles, the chevy tahoe. ford last month began selling flex-fuel versions of its popular f-150 pickup. vehicles that are designated flex-fuel are capable of running on gasoline but can use the alternative e85, a fuel mix that is 85% ethanol and 15% gas. both auto makers are also helping to increase the number of ethanol fueling pumps at gas stations around the country. at least five million vehicles that can run on e85 fuel already are on the road -- but most operate on gasoline alone because of the unavailability of ethanol. access to ethanol is still sparse. only about 600 gasoline stations out of 180,000 in the u.s. carry e85, concentrated largely in the midwest -- with roughly 200 of those in minnesota. still, that number more than doubled in 2005 and is expected to increase fivefold this year, said phillip lampert, executive director of the national ethanol vehicle coalition, a group that promotes ethanol use. "this has been an uphill battle," he says, but in the past several months, "people have begun to take notice." in november, ford said it will work with brookings, s.d.-based ethanol producer verasun energy corp. to convert existing fuel pumps to e85. gm last week said it would lead a project in california to get the state department of transportation to use between 50 and 100 of its flex-fuel impalas while chevron corp. will add ethanol pumps at some gas stations near the agency's offices. ford and gm combined will produce 650,000 vehicles next year that can use e85, which currently costs about $2 a gallon. ethanol -- which is distilled from corn and grain -- gets less mileage per gallon than gasoline. vehicles that use only gas get 5% to 12% better fuel economy, according to national ethanol vehicle coalition. there's good reason for gm and ford to make the push. there's a green war among auto makers to appear environmentally conscious to their customers, a battle in which ford, and particularly gm, are coming up short.

captain spaulding runs out of gas and needs to commendeer a vehicle from an unwilling woman who obviously doesn't understand the importance of his super secret clown business. from the devils rejects.
japan suffers from a high number of earthquakes, as you probably know, so they are an important fact of life here. there's no subtitles, but here's some info from japanprobe: "nagano prefecture (central japan) has a new mobile earthquake simulation room. since the prefecture’s foreign-born population has increased significantly since nagano’s last mobile earthquake vehicle was built 18 years ago, the new one has english, chinese, and portuguese narration options. according to the report, reservations to experience the simulator for free can be made through local fire stations."
em-50 urban assault vehicle most of the time it looks like your standard issue gmc-based rv with all the included amenities. but with the touch of a button the armor goes down and the missiles come out. it also includes full navigational and communications equipment.
dobbertin surface orbiter built out of an old milk tanker, the orbiter was designed to circumnavigate the globe on land and water, which is good for when you're on the move and forced to deal with the suddenly changing seasons that the nuclear fallout will likely bring. and like all good survival vehicles, it comes complete with a kitchen and porta-potti.
the wothahellizat if the sportsmobile is minimalist, the wothahellizat is maximalist. it's a motorhome on wheels, literally. nature photographer rob fray used this to do his work across the australian continent. the perfect vehicle for when you don't want to leave anything at your underground fallout shelter.
the buffalo force protection vehicle it can crush a hummer, clear a minefield and keep you safe from grenade-chucking survivors hoping to kill you off as you fight for that last barrel of oil or pool of freshwater. it may not be the most comfortable choice for long trips, but it does come with a space shuttle-like mine raking arm, which josch points out "could skewer a cadre of zombies." perfect. oh, and if you pick the right one, it may even transform.
maximog it's hard to argue with the maximog, which starts life as the über-capable mercedes unimog and gets converted for full survival duty. it's as tough as the unicat, but comes with a high-performance motorbike bov, undersea vehicle and a special living trailer.
(cbs) every so often in the history of war, a new weapon comes along that fundamentally rewrites the rules of battle. this is a story about a revolution in unmanned aviation that is doing just that. most people know them as drones; the air force calls them "unmanned aerial vehicles." and right now, there are dozens of them in the skies over iraq and afghanistan, hunting down insurgents, every minute of every day. they've become one of the most important planes in the united states air force - and yet, the pilot is nowhere near the aircraft or the battlefield. they are controlled by remote control, from thousands of miles away. many of the details of this weapons program are classified, but our 60 minutes team was given secret clearance and unprecedented access to bring you this story.

earthroamer xv-jp it's got all you need to survive, is quite portable (the only camper to ever cross the rubicon trail) and contains a top that folds out into a queen-sized bed. you'll just have to get used to using the potty in view of the zombies.
volvo c303 what do you need an onboard toilet for in a world where global war has rendered societal norms, such as not peeing anywhere, nil. lacking the complex mechanical and electronic components of some of its colleagues here, the volvo c303 can be kept running with duct tape and shoe polish. plus, what's tougher than a big red brick?
sisu xa-185 three important reasons: 1. mobility: amphibious 6x6 2. safety: zombie proof, also with a mounted nsv machine gun 3. power plant: decent diesel engine (we all know diesel engines are versatile with fuel)
take a gander at the zombie-fighting machines-o-war below. thanks so3 for the uploads.
