Eric's Innovative Car Idea
Eric from Kansas City submitted an excellent Car Idea! He created Offroader the Explorer. Offroader criss-crosses the globe looking for new sources of fuel. He specializes in finding alternative fuels to power vehicles of all kinds. Offroader is a true pioneer!
As of 2006, there were over 250 million registered passenger vehicles in the United States. Of those, around 550,000 were alternative fuel vehicles. This means that only .2% of the passenger vehicles in the U.S. run on alternative fuels. We could really use Offroader's help finding fuels that decrease carbon emissions. Thank you Eric for creating such a noble and innovative car!
What fuel do you think Offroader the Explorer should run on?

Anthony's New Car Idea
The latest new car idea comes from a veteran Chevron Cars illustrator, Anthony! This young Chevron Car designer recently submitted a drawing of Anthony Ambulance. Now, he shares his latest creation with us: Penny Pumper!
Penny is a Pumper truck, a great companion to Fuller Fire Truck. Pumper Trucks carry large amounts of water to fires in areas where fire hydrants are not available. Some carry as much as 5,000 gallons of water! Pumper Trucks can pump water out of nearby streams and lakes in rural areas, or carry water to chemical spills on highways. Some Pumper Trucks even help in forest fires.
Anthony, thank you so much for your drawing of Penny Pumper! She and your other drawing, Anthony Ambulance, would be a big help to Fuller Fire Truck in an emergency.
