We have magnets in the fuel line and magnets around oil filter. What's
next?

Oh! Oh! I know! I know! How about magnet around the air filter? This will
align the water molecule (well, since almost none of air contents are
magnetic...) for better combustion!

And how about replacing those ball-bearings with the circular magnets? No
more lubricants to worry about! And no friction!! That should add several
mph to the top end!!!

And how about a big magnet under the carriage? We wouldn't even need tires
as the car will levitate around! Gee, no more use for quattros, eh? This
might give headache to people who lives on the equator (think, people!) --
but hey, great idea!

How about passenger seat made up of 100% magnet -- pure people pick-upper!
