KITT Fuel Efficient?

Post by CJ2000 » Fri Oct 20, 2006 4:35 pm

Was KITT fuel efficient?

I remember in Season seeing Michael fill KITT up with Gas, but then in Knight in Disgrace, when Michael is trying to escape with the cannister he is pressing the Power Button, then in Junk Yard Dog, when they have pulled KITT out of the acid (poor KITT) and Michael is looking over him, when you see an interior shot of the car you can see some keys!

Then I read somewhere that he was fuel efficient?

Which one's right?

Thanks :D
KITT: How are you going to get in?
Michael: Pick the lock!
KITT: But that's illegal Michael
Michael: So is the way we're parked!

KITT is fuel efficient, Devon said it in the pilot, plus they converted him over to hydrogen in the episode with the energy efficient race.

KITT could be started with the Power button or the key.

I'm not sure I understand the connection between fuel efficiency and how to start the car.

I think she means Fuel Dependant?
Devon-"Shall we drink to the start of.."
Michael-"Of what?"
Devon-"One mans Dream"

He was pressing the power button because KITT was refusing to oblige to Michaels commands, because in KITT's eyes, or scanner, if you will, Michael was breaking the law, KITT didn't know it was a scheme between Michael and Devon. That's also why KITT wasn't talking to him.

I believe he got like 200 mpg, I know I read it somewhere, can't recall where though. In my KR Extras DVD though, it didn't state what his mpg was, it was funny actually, it said something about not wanting to scare the guys at Detroit, lol.

im 100% sure that in one episode KITT tells someone that he can run on any combustable substance, or something very similar. That would suggest that gas, deisel or anything similar would be just fine too.

Oh! The possibilites with that one! Brandy! Turpentine! That Blue Balls energy drink! My brother's gas!

Oh- isn't that page with the Detroit remark on this very site? Under the "Series" page under "Cast" somewhere?
Heaven, where all QC only has to be run once.
