In car news, a look at Ford Fusion, which has recently been tested to run 1,445 miles before running out of fuel.

On the 1,445.7-mile trip, the Ford Fusion hybrid was pushed to an average of 81.5 mpg. Even considering that hypermiling techniques were employed to reach these numbers, we're quite impressed. I mean, this is a production midsize sedan that got over 80 mpg driving on regular streets, including many in Washington, D.C. The entire event took 69 hours and raised $8,000 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

Very cool.
