ive read about what happens to people who try to make fuel saving devices for the people.neil young needs our support and protection.i think the guy has a lot of guts to put his life and bucks on the line for all of us.more than any other singer im happy i have been buying his music for the last 40 years. great song and video thanks for helping to support a man who is putting so much on the line for the betterment of mankind and the world.

As an 13 year ex-resident of Wichita I really enjoyed seeing all the old haunts around the warehouse district and liked the way the lyrics worked in the Neil Young lyrical style! Dude on the push-bike rocked too :). It's a good thing the vid didn't run over 3:32 or you'd have been forced into Kechi for the remaining footage.

This song is filling up my mind. I hear it everywhere I go. It's this constant hum since I first watched the video. I havent felt this groovey in years. Thanks man!

He was really nice to us and we got a great story. I couldn't believe that he signed my guitar. I figured there was no chance because they were so busy with the car. I'm glad I brought it and glad that my co-worker, Chris Frank asked me to come along to help shoot. I was sad to hear about the Lincvolt fire a few years back. I hope he can bring it back to life again.

First lie is the first line out of Neil's mouth: "No emissions, ever". Really? Well, last I heard it takes other sources of power to charge those batteries and to produce the liquid fuels the car uses once the battery power runs out, which definitely emit greenhouse gases.

REXWHOPRODUCTIONS commented on 09 Oct 2012

It's my understanding that those wheel covers are part of the charging system. Each wheel works as a alternator or generator to charge the car's batteries as the car drives. I thought the same thing about the wheels until I found that out. Not very stylish.

Having a guitar signed by a celebrity usually makes the guitar play much better...the pickups get that warm thing going and the neck just starts to feel right
