    Ford Engineer Builds Street-Legal, 125 MPG Hybrid in His Garage

    The "HyperRocket" was built by a Ford efficiency expert in his garage, and with two seats, a whopping 125 mpg, and a comfortable cruising speed of 65 mph, we're awfully tempted to buy the thing.

    Yeah. It's for sale. The creator, a guy named John, is selling the HyperRocket to make room for his next project, a plug-in, fully electric vehicle. The guy deserves some kind of medal for achievement in DIY. [Jalopnik]
