Even if this motor was a phenominal success, it'd still take decades before it was in the majority of vehicles on the road.
In addition, what make you think that all the infrastructure currently in use for gasoline won't work for water? Instead of 87, 89, 91 at the pump how about 87, 91, H2O at the pump? Holy shit, I must be some sort of genius.

OMG! Yes Scott, you are a F'ing genius.
Damnit Cody, you were supposed to keep him occupied in the Social Security thread.
Scott, you win, I was just down on 4th street and paid $100 for stock in "Stroke Me Six Times, Inc." I think I got 20 shares... The sales girl wasn't very good looking, and she insisted on cash, but I'm in on the ground floor baby...

Did I say you have to build it all at once, nooooo, I just asked if he knew how much it cost to deploy that kind of infrastructure, I stated no time period for that deployment. Yes, it would be gradual, OK?
Could existing infrastructure be leveraged, yes, but only with quite a bit of modification. you can't pump H2O out of he same nozzle as 87, and 91, so something has to change there.
Not sure it's a real good idea to even transport them in the same truck, but OK, maybe you can.
Know how many thousands of miles of gasoline pipeline there is in the US? Neither do I , but I bet it is a boat load. Probably can't switch back and forth easily, if at all, so start digging or finding a work around, or come up with localized "manufacturering" plants which cost more typically than large centralized ones.
Can it be done, yes, but it is only going to happen if somebody can make a profit on it no matter how f'ing cool it is. Share holders won't have it any other way.
