If he got his rights back (which indicates that he had sold them away), the evil GM would have been willing to sell it back to him. Why would the evil GM do that if they were in the throes of conspiring to keep such wonderful technology away from humankind? > and they are now used in modified Toyota > Prius's which can get up to 250 mpg. ...and Toyota is making a killing off of Prius, which is an electric/oil hybrid.

However at the moment modifying the > Prius with hack voids the warranty. ...and it voids the warranty because if Toyota didn't void the warranty, they could be subject to 100s of millions of dollars in liability if someone gets killed because of the hack. No conspiracy there. I don't know what I have to do to convince you of this but Toyota would probably pay $1 billion to get their hands on technology that gave a car 250mpg because they could charge what they wanted for such a car and wouldn't be able to sell them fast enough.
