- Driving the Future Look-Alike
A look-alike URL with www.drivingthefuture.org. It is not clear who is sponsoring this page and it definitely has an attitude (well, ... a sense of humor too). You might want your students to compare these two drivingthefuture web sites.

- The Ford Motor Company Electric Vehicle site
The Ford Motor Company has an Electric Vehicle site but it keeps switching the URL. Go to www.ford.com and search for the Ranger EV or the EcoStar. Somewhere on the hits (probably not first) you will find the Electric Vehicle site (which doesn't show up if you searched directly for Electric Vehicle). The site is straightforward and user-friendly.
