Yes there was a man named Tucker who developed a very different car. I saw one at a museum. Very unique.

Yes, absolutely. But it wasn’t really fuel-saving. It had a very powerful engine, I think like 50 were built. It actually had a helicopter engine, and a whopping amount of horsepower and it was light. It was a far more efficient engine than the other car engines of the day, but due to the fact it was so powerful, it still used a lot of gas. It just delivered a lot more power on about the same amount of gas.
