If you haven’ heard of the Motorhead Messiah, Jonathan Goodwin, let me introduce you: he hacks cars for a living, and he can get 60 mpg out of an H3 Hummer while doubling the horsepower and cutting emissions in half. Unbelievable? Yes, but this is no joke, and it’s doesn’t defy the laws of physics either. The hacked H3 is a hybrid with the gasoline fuel system removed. In its place, Goodwin installed a biodiesel-burning jet turbine to recharge the electrical system.

This would be my first time to hear that name! How's that so? A hacker who is able to hacked an H3 hybrid with a gasoline fuel system removed? That's so mysterious!

60 miles per gallon on a Hummer is just impossible! Hummers are well known as gas-guzzlers so how could that be? I just think it's too good to be true.
