I ran the leaf blower thru my marketing department.

Here is what they came up with.

12v leaf blower with an intake funnel facing forward. In non turbo cruise mode the ram air spins the impeller charging an auxiliary battery. Then the charged battery is ready for boost when needed.

Call it the "Hybrid Electric Turbo" for $295 and it will sell like condoms at an HIV convention.

I don't know why you guys are crapping on this. They even have a chart telling you how great it is!



IT'S A CHART! THEY DON'T LIE!

They kinda look like the C6 Corvette Z06 wheels - same bolt pattern as the Sonoma too.

Hey, thanks for the reply!

If so, they are fairly nice. Prices aren't that bad either. I know there aren't any with the Fit bolt pattern. It's ok, wasn't necessarily looking at them for the Fit anyway. Though, there are quite a few wheels for the Fit that are similar if I were.

Along those lines, I was trying to find wheels similar to the alloy wheels available for the Chevy Aveo 5. They're the upgraded wheels... not the standard. They look great on the current Aveo 5, if you can believe that. I Photoshopped them onto a pic of my Fit and they looked pretty nice. Even better if you get rid of the Chevy logo and replace it with Honda's. I've found close, but really, no cigar. I've since moved on to other wheel design ideas.
