Tru but most of the modern fuel system is plastic and I believe that it leaves the tanks as a gas, hydrogen so rust wouldnt be an issue if that were the case.

It is theoretically possible. You could separate the hydrogen and oxygen in the water and use the hydrogen to power the car.

And think about it. Buying a dollar bottle of water and pouring it into your tank.

Now, I know its not that simple, but essientially, instead of gas station, water stations.

Research has shown that it is NO WHERE near enough power though. They would have to find another way to use the water.

The thing is, it will drive the price of water through the roof. And on top of that, water is one of the natural resources we need the most on the planet, good way to kill us off quicker would be to use up all the water to run our cars with.
