Flyun Ryun Noble’s H1

Now that it is public I can disclose that I am the designer who has been behind the Rasertech and FEV 100mpg SUV project since the beginning.  The original idea was to do a Solstice which I was hired away from other manufacturers to define the energy requirements and digitize to show the layout of battery and electric drive options.  Eventually I was given voice to share that if one were trying to impact emissions that doubling the economy of an SUV would have more than 4x the impact of doubling the economy of a compact vehicle.  So the option was toyed with and I suggested an Icon vehicle called the H3.  David West was eventually swayed, Jim Spellman came aboard, I flew with them and Alan Perrington to present to Larry Burns and General Motors and the idea moved forward.

For the past three years I have been designing and consulting for other vehicles as well as the H3 project.  I came up with the program that has now been presented before the Department of Energy that shows how certain elements can be modified to affect a vehicle’s fuel economy.  In my spare time I’ve come up with new engine designs, new transmission designs and new electric motor configurations that optimize energy use including bio-fuels.  By combining a few of these technologies it is possible to achieve a true, continuous 100mpg, NOT mpge (equivilant) as well as a self sustaining energy source.

If my system could be implemented and you used your car to charge your house you’d be paying $0.04 per kWh with $4 / gallon fuel. The engine would actually run on Natural Gas so you could effectively simply put an engine running continuously at your house and just push the power back on the grid and actually make money.  But alas, bottom up technology does not work in my opinion.  You don’t generally start seeing parts on your Mercedes S500 that were originally on a Honda Civic … it is the other way around.  So here is my vision … my next step:

The Elite Customer:  Build a vehicle that is completely modular.  The elite customer can spec this vehicle however they wish.  This is truly the Top Down method:

The Body:  There will be an option of probably two front ends, one like a fighter jet or F1 car, another more like a conventional sedan with a hood and fenders.  Then you choose the passenger compartment.  The doors would be gull wing.  The two seater the wings would be short.  The 4/5 seater the wings could be a full length single or a split double gull wing.  Then the customer chooses the back end: A fastback that is Countachesque, a wagon with room for another row of seats if desired, or a truck bed.  I realize to many that would be heresy but there are some who would want the utility.

The Powertrain:  I can’t go into this extensively but the customer could spec if they wanted just an Internal Combustion Engine, a hybrid, or a full electric vehicle.  The transmission could be a conventional or one of my 5 IVT designs.  The ICE would have the option of being a 2liter 4 cylinder that produces 800hp, 3 liter 6 cylinder at 1200hp, or the monster an 8 cylinder 4 liter that produces 1600hp of Veyron tromping carnage.  Couple this with the hybrid drive and you could feasably push 1800hp to the ground.

The Suspension:  Customers have a choice of three different suspension systems that can each be varied in their own realm.  A formula one style suspension would keep the vehicle as close to the ground as possible.  It would incorporate my HydroPneumatic suspension system so that the vehicle could actually be tolerable on city streets.  The Rally suspension would be designed to sit at a moderate height that would look most like a normal vehicle.  The Baja suspension would allow for 36″ of wheel travel with the capability to ride at any height throughout the range.  This suspension system coupled with my Gen 5 IVT would allow the tires to be replaced or coupled with tracks for unlimited snow depth.  With the choice of suspension complete we’d move on to accoutriments.

The Interior:  The topline would be leather made from stingray.  Midline would be cowhide and the PITA version (and yes I said PITA not PETA) would be MBtex.  The dashboard would simply be a high res LED screen that would be tailored to meet the customer’s exacting requirements.  The control panel to the right would allow the driver or the passenger the easiest of access to any of their requests; warmer or cooler cabin or seats or steering wheel or passenger handles, opacity of skyroof, audio and video requirements and access to their home’s systems as they prefer.  Once inside the cabin the customer would touch only the skin of their choice, or every screen as a touch screen, or the few pieces of finely crafted carbon fiber.

The Outside:  The customer could specify a color or a finish.  The ultimate would be the carbon fiber wrapped into the machined aluminum.

Our Commitment:  Every year we would expect to see the vehicles in for service.  At our own expense we would fly the vehicles in and update all of the computer systems, keeping the customer’s presets and data as they prefer and correct any imperfections to our liking.  Our customers could always request any upgrades or changes at that time at their cost.  If service is required more often this may be had for a nominal fee.  Onsite service is also an option anywhere in the world where Americans are welcome.

The Experience:  If you would like to race the Dakar, the Baja, spend a day or a week at the track we can provide driving, navigation, and coaching support for any event.  While our vehicles are restricted from many of these events due to antiquated regulations we would be happy to participate as we can.

Exclusivity:  I expect to build one of these vehicles per month out of our premiere facility.  For this month our customer gets to be their own vehicle manufacturer.  This vehicle will be featured in our one advertisement that we do per year … during the NFL Superbowl.  During this 1 minute ad we will show all 12 vehicles that we have built in the previous year as well as 1 or 2 extreme features that we have done with our customers during that year whether that be landing the vehicle onto a landing strip out of a flying plane to show uninterrupted deployment capabilities, the vehicle righting itself from a rollover, or even super deep snow expeditions to the north and south poles or other adventures to where our valued customers may take us.  Whatever the challenge, the commercial would be our gift back to our customers.

Eventually some of the technology will trickle down into conventional vehicles.  Our design and plan is for this to happen but not at our elite facility and not at the expense of our Elite Program.  We do hope that within two or three years that we will have a sub $100k platform for the “masses” that would provide 100mpg.  This will likely be produced by an existing mass auto manufacturer’s facility where parts can be outsourced cheaply.

Prices per vehicle will start at $2M.  As I have spec’d the vehicle with a top speed exceeding that of the Veyron with all the top end toys it would surpass $12M.  The design also works well if you feel you need a fully armored version.  Now accepting applications for consideration to become one of our Elite Customers.

If you’re connected enough to be reading this then you’re connected enough to contact me.  Best of luck!

Think about it logically.  If the globe is truly warming, say even 2 or 3 degrees this creates more evaporation.  The air around the polar ice caps is well below freezing.  Cold air holds less moisture so when the higher water content air travels over the caps it cools and is forced to release moisture in the form of snow and ice.  So if we could actually raise the temperature by a few degrees we could INCREASE our polar ice caps.  Silly environmentalretardists.

What is the deal with America throwing our hands in the air about an invisible gas that makes plants grow better, stronger and with less water?  And what is the deal with America going along with the rest of the world telling us we have to reduce our energy consumption by 50%. 50%!!?!  That means we’d be less productive than FRANCE!!!  How can anyone be less productive than France?  I want America back!  I want America to roll up her sleeves, grab a rivet gun and face energy independence like we faced WWII or the challenge to go to the moon!  I want the Freedoms of a sovereign nation.  THAT is what my Hummer means to me.  THAT is why I drive it in the face of the VICTIMS and their ECO TERRORIST Priusi (what is the plural for prius?).  I believe in America so much that I drive the last vehicle that was truly built here.  My call to arms is that if you DON’T drive a Hummer, and not one that is hummer in nameplate only, a REAL Hummer with an aircraft aluminum body, an American Steel grade frame, then YOU are the one who needs to change your thinking from your communist socialist liberal agenda.  YOU are the one with the problem.  I’m the one with the solution.  I’m the one with the big red in your face H1.  If you don’t like that then I say, leave you socialist bastard.  Don’t attempt to use your freedom to encroach my freedoms.  After all I drive a Hummer and your Hybrid doesn’t stand a chance against it.  And it would be a shame to destroy the $7,000 of strip mined chinese lithium batteries from your Hybrid by me just making a point.  I got a better way:  Grab a rivet gun.  Grab a Hummer.  Grab FREEDOM!

God’s word:
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the dearth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Hillary Clinton / Liberal Rhetoric:
“The other day the oil companies reported the highest profits in the history of the world. I want to take those profits, and I want to put them in a strategic energy fund, that will begin to fund alternative smart energy alternatives and technologies that will begin to actually move us towards the direction of independence.”

This week I saw the Movie Wall-E from Pixar. Many people are seeing it as an attack on big business. While I think that is what they meant, I think if you simply substitute “big government” for the “Big N Large Corporation” you’d have what which I see as unlimited governance. The movie starts by showing the world in a literal mess with piles of junk scattered everywhere. Everywhere that is shown is dotted with BNL logos promoting their product and suggesting wellness to their consumers. Apparently BNL won the contract to remove all of the Humans from earth (for 7 years) while they came up with something to dig out the mess. They failed and simply abandoned earth. All of the people on the ship were simply coddled and pacified by these big corporate machines.

Isn’t this what Big Government Lies have tried to tell us? Worry! Rely on us and we’ll make it all right. Worry more! We’re in MORE trouble. Rely on us MORE and we’ll make it all right. Phooey, I say. Like the BNL in Wall-E our BGL are now telling us to relax, put up our feet, let them take care of our health care system, park our cars and move out of our big homes to small communal living. Maybe I should expect that soon they’ll try and heard us all into a large rocket ship so they can clean up this “environmental disaster” we’ve made of earth.  Government is NOT the answer.  WE, the ENTREPRENEURS, the visionaries

While I believe in Man, I believe in government’s capability to screw up men and women and children. I believe in Freedom, first and foremost. I believe it is government’s role to insure those freedoms. Instead our lives are mandated by Environmentalretardists:

Some random city folk from east of the Mississippi comes to Utah to “get away from it all.” They hop in a jet and rent an economy car from Hertz and head south on I-15. They go east on I-70 and wonder why they are only getting 32mpg as SUVs and Jeeps and trucks go roaring past them on the Interstate nearly blowing them off the road. Finally they see an exit for Hanksville and buy fuel and granola bars and lip balm for their trip into “away from it all.” In 30 miles they see gigantic fins of dark desolate soil stacked for endless miles. They park on the side of the highway, grab their straw hat, their googley bug eyed sunglasses, and their designer walking stick and start walking. After a few hours they’ve about reached the base of these gigantic razer backs and it begins getting dark. They look back to the west and see the most gorgeous sunset backlighting some of the most incredible terrain in the world. They hike on and decide to make camp. They find a few sparse shrubs with some dead branches so they break them off and build a sensible fire as the temperature descends from 90 degrees to below 50. As they find themselves shivering through the night they find the same shrubs and start breaking off more branches and throwing them on the fire to keep warm. The night is cold and sleepless and long. Early the Environmentalretardists is awakened by a heard of trucks and campers pulling into the flats at the base of the razorbacks. Instantly their serenity is interrupted by the thumping of big four strokes and zinging of winding two strokes. They begin munching on their granola bar and start hiking to higher ground away from this new menace. As they hike the motorcycles and atvs flow effortlessly from razorback to razorback covering them with tracks. The Environmentalretardists takes note that they stick to no trail and could run them over at any given moment. The Recreationalist takes note of the Environmentalretardist and wonders if they’re alright. The Environmentalretardists crosses over the backside of the Razors and continues hiking across the plateaus with their designer walking stick at their side. They scoff at the distant whirrings of the polluting machines. As the sun rotates higher in the sky the water that was supposed to last the weekend is quickly being drained. The hiker soon finds themselves looking for shade in this forbidden land. Flies abound, mosquitos bite and for some reason their herbal insect repellent isn’t working as well as the person at REI swore it would. Finally, after hours of walking and dragging this stupid stick the hiker finds a small outcropping and crawls underneath. As they sit marveling at the scenic wonder of the San Rafael Swell they see a plume of dust in the distance. As it gets closer they hear the rattling of a diesel. Around the corner slides a Hummer H1 … the enemy as has been identified by CNN back home. The large dusty vehicle slides to a stop on a faint two track not 100 feet from the hiker. The two passengers get out and also enjoy taking in the view and try striking up a conversation with the Hiker. The hiker instantly accuses them of being off trail and swears vengence upon them. The driver looks quizzically at the hiker and simply climbs back into the vehicle and continues on their journey. The Environmentalretardists is fuming at this point and stomps their way down the intricate slot canyons of the Swell. Happy with their gear and their tenacity they continue on without their designer walking stick. Soon the hiker realizes it is getting dark and begins looking for shelter. The walls of the canyon are too high to scale and there isn’t much in the way of firewood. They look at their GPS to see which way it is back to their car but it keeps requesting a clear view of the sky and doesn’t work in the canyon. Oddly though, it says it is only 5pm. The hiker sits down and starts eating their second to the last granola bar. As they suckle their new Camelback it begins to burble and the water that once generously flowed from the nipple stops. In a panic the hiker removes the bladder from their pack and sure enough, there are but a few drops left inside. The night is even longer than the first. With no fire and the constant shriek of bats and the irritation of bugs claiming their night’s meal from the hiker’s body the darkness is all enveloping. However the sky is brilliant, the small sliver which they can see. Stars are endless and there is an obvious sense of depth which the hiker has never experienced before. THIS is what they came for. As the next morning dawns, it simply gets a little lighter in the canyon. The hiker finishes what they can of the few drops of water in their camelback and continue down the slot canyon. The day wears on. Eventually the sun beats down on them for a few agonizing minutes. Their ankles are in pain from being twisted across the rocks, their hands worn rough from the unyielding sandstone. But finally, finally, the hiker finds a path. An old mining road that cuts down into the canyon and back out the other side. The hiker decides to go the same direction they think they remembered seeing the Hummer go believing it will lead them back to civilization. Soon the hiker realizes they can’t remember where they are or what they’re doing. The batteries are dead on their GPS because they forgot to shut it off overnight. The road is vague and hard to discern. Off in the distance they see a plume of dust. They begin to run … but alas, their body doesn’t allow and they collapse. Blurred memories of water brushed across their lips meld with visions of the dark desert sky flowing by. Another blink and the hiker becomes more aware of a white lit room and an IV in their arm. They sleep. The next day the hiker is released from the hospital having survived a bout with severe dehydration. They were lucky to be alive. They find themselves in Grand Junction Colorado. They call the rental company and let them know where to find the vehicle, then hop on a few planes back home. Once there they immediately join SUWA and post their comments on how the mechanized and motorized abusers destroyed their vacation and how they miraculously survived. They campaign to have this area shut down to motorized to eliminate any trace that they were ever there. They share their stories of how they found tracks in what was supposed to be the most remote of regions. They call their attorney friend and immediately have him sue the GPS company for its failure to work in a slot canyon, they sue the rental car company for not getting them back to safety and they sue the doctor for rehydrating them without permission. They would sue the Hummer driver if they could have remembered their plate number for not giving them water and leaving them in such a hostile environment.

What the Environmentalretardist didn’t realize is that:
1 - Their prius is less environmentally friendly than a Hummer as the lithium for its batteries have to be strip mined in china, refined in Canada, assembled back in India by child labor sweat shops, then transported to Japan to be configured, and finally shipped to the states to be put into their Government subsidized vehicle that will only last 100k miles where an H1 will last well more than 300k and every part on it can be recycled usually without refining.

2 - They parked their vehicle illegally and should have gone another 15 miles to the entrance where they could have paid their entrance fee and have parked their vehicle.

3 - They burned a tree that recreationalists had protected for years and they burned it alive. They also burned it on a day with high fire risk and a “red” burn day because of the California wildfires that are raging out of control as the wackos won’t let the loggers cut nor do controlled burns to clear out the dead underbrush.

4 - The hiker never noticed that within one week, after a storm, all of the tracks that were on the razorbacks were now gone and the area was again “pristine.” The hiker also failed to note that they failed to get a permit to camp overnight which SUWA fought to have in place for them.

5 - The double track where they scolded the Hummer was actually a fine place for the Hummer to be.

6 - They walked across kryptobiotic soil to get to the outcropping ledge with more pressure on their feet than the Hummer could have put by simply driving across it.

7 - The Hummer driver was trying to offer the Hiker water but instead picked up the hiker’s granola bar litter and left.

8 - The walking stick left in the desert will never completely decompose.

9 - The second to the last granola bar wrapper is still down in that canyon.

10 - The Hummer driver rescued the hiker and had to hose out the vehicle after driving them to Grand Junction over 100 miles away and never asked for compensation.

11 - The doctors who saved the hiker has to take care of over 100 or so cases like this per year. They do so at a government regulated price and are still trying to pay off student loans. Gratefully they were educated in other countries so the tuition is significantly less and the passing rate much higher (is this a good thing?).

12 - The Prius batteries were left in over 120 degree heat which irreparably damaged them. The company had to hire a truck to tow it back to Salt Lake and the vehicle was sold at auction.

13 - The GPS company has suspended operations and will have to double the price of their next offering to compensate for a lawsuit settlement and for a warning label on the box that says “Not for use in SLOT canyons.” and “This is a toy, use at your own risk.”

———–

Instead it should be:
LIVE at your own risk.
If you get hurt doing something you wanted to do fix it and try it again or don’t do it!
Government shouldn’t interpret law as “Evolving.” The Constitution is unchanging and should be unyielding.
If someone wants to do something but the idea is too big for them, that is when Government should help them. Put them in touch with the people who can truly make such visions happen and, if the people so desire, fund the project that will benefit EVERYONE in a way that will guarantee it will benefit everyone upon its success. Other than that, get out of everyone’s way.
If they want to preserve the spotted owl and polar bear, instead of spending millions trying to thwart corporations from developing, they should award millions to those same companies that take steps of preservation.

I’m sure there will be more, but if I don’t publish this now it’ll never go out.

A couple of weeks ago a video ran the net about a Connecticut man who was hit by a vehicle and left in the middle of the street:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20BeOcjt52I&feature=related
Nobody stopped to help the man and nobody rushed out into the street to give aid. The typical response from onlookers was that they didn’t want to get involved.

I can’t even begin to express the emotion I feel at that complete failure. Are the attorneys of America pleased with themselves yet? Have they obliterated the fabric of our once great nation to the point they are now please? Our legal system has destroyed America. It has given credibility where no credibility is due. Corporations like the Sierra Club and SUWA who think they know better than you have sued this country into submission … and we fail to react because we’re afraid they’ll come after us next. Might I suggest a different solution:

Retribution Recompense. If you attempt to sue someone and lose, you should have to compensate the defense the amount for which you were suing. The Prosecuting attorney should also have to pay the defense attorney’s fees. Furthermore each attorney should have to provide an accurate list of cases in which they’ve been involved and the outcome of those precedings.

I believe people are entitled to a fair trial by their peers. I don’t believe people should be manipulated by attorneys through legal force.

How much are we willing to put up with till we take our country back?
$5 / gallon for fuel? $10? $20? Or shall I say Euros? What if your children are suddenly required to speak Spanish in 50% of their schooling?

It is ridiculous that we are paying more than $1 / gallon for fuel. We live in THE most energy rich territory in the World. We have oil reserves for the next 50 - 150 years. Natural gas for 200 - 600 years. And Coal … coal for 2000 years (cited Nathan S Lewis, California Clean Innovation Conference, May 11th, 2007. ) Hitler ran his tiger tanks on Liquid coal in WWII, we surely have the technology to do the same today. So why don’t we?

Environmentalists, or rather, Environmentalretardists. We could be pumping oil out of Alaska for $10-$20 / barrel but Environmentalretardists won’t allow us because they claim it will disturb mating habits of Reindeer 30 miles away from where they’d be pumping. We could be pumping oil out of North Dakota but Environmentalretardists think the lives of a few mice are more important than our own so we can’t disturb them. We could be turning coal into gas and diesel for $1 / gallon but the Environmentalretardists haven’t let us build a refinery in 30 years. We could be powered by Nuclear plants across the country but Environmentalretardists won’t let us build one nor will they allow us to dispose of the waste properly. Instead we have to store it. We are being forced to reduce our “Carbon Footprint” based on failed models of failed scientists to implement policies that tax us into oblivion. We are being forced to reduce our energy consumption from 10kw per day to 2kw. To put that into perspective, we are being FORCED from our freedom to do what we please to 2kw … that is we’d only be allowed to drive our Prius’s 6 MILES PER DAY IF WE CHOSE NOT TO EAT THAT DAY!!!

We need to take our country back. We need to start worrying about ourselves and each other rather than some stupid owl that I’ve heard tastes a lot like chicken. If we were truly interested in preserving certain animals or land then we’d be offering incentives to companies to protect them rather than fines and quarantines for being near them. We should be paying to develop our own energy infrastructure. Instead we are paying $4 / gallon to finance terrorism in radical Islam countries so they can fly our own planes into our own skyscrapers. I don’t know about you, but I’m sick of it. I want my Granddad’s America back.

Did you ever stop to consider the one way they could dupe Americans into taking a World Governance is to convince us it is the only way to save the planet? Newsflash: Man influenced Global Climate Change is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people - Senator James M Inhofe (R - Okla)

I too am a bad American. I drive a Humvee, not one of the new shiny ones, but the old school, military ones. The ones the environmentalists claim get 4mpg. My last tank(s), including 10 miles of 4×4ing in Moab yeilded 16mpg. I have the receipts to prove it. I have to say, it does my heart good going to Moab and seeing people, true Americans out there to have fun despite all the Environmentalretardists have done to slow us down. Don’t give in bad Americans. It is worth winning!
