Designed for the most extreme situations and unforgiving conditions, the Jeep® Rescue concept is not only the ultimate type of search and rescue vehicle â€" it's the ultimate execution of a Jeep off-road vehicle.
Combine legendary Jeep off-road capability with state-of-the-art search and rescue technology, the Jeep Rescue is designed to reach areas in the harshest, most daunting mountainous and desert areas.

“Jeep Rescue is the supreme trail search and research vehicle â€" one that only Jeep could build, “ said Trevor Creed, Senior Vice President â€" Chrysler Group Design.

Classic Jeep Design Taken to An Exciting New Dimension and Extreme

Starting with a modern interpretation of the timeless, classic Jeep, the Rescue not only hints at a future design direction for a large Jeep â€" it builds on the rugged Jeep heritage to forge an exciting new dimension for the Jeep brand.

The Rescue can be configured to run almost totally “open” â€" with folding front windshield and a retractable backlite, a sliding glass sunroof in front, a fold-forward canvas roof in the rear, plus, all four doors are removable.

A Rugged Foundation

Featuring all-new body-on-frame construction with hydroformed frame rails and riding on an 80-inch wide chassis with 123-inch wheelbase and 37-inch tires, the Jeep Rescue is built for anything thrown its way. The front hydropneumatic suspension combines with the heavy-duty link-coil rear suspension to give the Rescue its solid footing on all terrain. The suspension has adjustable ride height and an additional 4-inch lift available for fording. The aforementioned 37-inch tires feature an MTR tread and run-flat capability, negating the need for a spare. On-board tire pressure control has the ability to “tune” tire pressures for maximum traction on all surfaces.

Mga TB brothers,

BECHTEL NAMED TOP U.S. CONTRACTOR FOR ELEVENTH STRAIGHT YEAR
May 13, 2009

SAN FRANCISCO, May 13, 2009 â€" Bechtel has been named the top U.S. contractor for the eleventh straight year by Engineering News-Record (ENR), the leading U.S. trade publication for the engineering and construction industry.

“We are proud to be recognized by ENR once again as the top U.S. construction company,” said Chairman and CEO Riley Bechtel. “This recognition is a tribute to our employees and our customers. Two thousand eight was a good year for Bechtel and with our healthy backlog of work, diversified portfolio, and our skilled and dedicated workforce, we fully expect to weather the current economic downturn.”
Bechtel turned in a solid performance in 2008 for both total revenue and new work booked. However, the increases in both categories were tempered by a fourth-quarter slowdown as the global recession rippled into the engineering and construction industry.

Fueled by good performance across its diversified global portfolio, Bechtel continued delivering world-class projects. North American operations accounted for about 40 percent of its 2008 revenue and generated two-thirds of new work. Business was also strong in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

Bechtel’s project completion highlights for 2008 included the West Coast Route Modernization project in the United Kingdom, with faster, more reliable service adding 60,000 seats per day on a busy line from London to Glasgow; an LNG receiving terminal in Louisiana, one of the largest in the world; and the Sohar aluminum smelter in Oman, completed on time while training 750 Omanis in a variety of construction trades.

LEO MOTORS TO SUPPLY ELECTRIC VEHICLES TO THE PHILIPPINES


The Philippines is full of tricycles. In fact, there are some 2.2 million motorized rickshaws, known as tricycles or traysikels, in the country. Most of these are powered by very dirty engines that don't have any real emissions equipment and the government recognizes that this is a major problem. To help remedy the situation, the Philippines entered into an agreement with Leo Motors to create a joint venture to build new electric taxis. A $5 million contribution by the government will get the ball rolling, and Leo Motors is to provide at least 2,500 electric vehicle kits, including batteries that will be assembled by the newly formed company. Each unit will be powered by a lithium polymer battery that can either be recharged in the vehicle or swapped out at designated "Fresh Battery Stations" that are also to be built by the joint venture. The first city to get the EVs will be Puerto Princesa, the capital of the province of Palawan.

PRESS RELEASE:

Leo Motors Signs a Major Contract with the Philippines Government to Supply $15 Million in Electric Vehicles

LAS VEGAS, NV. October 21, 2008: Leo Motors, Inc. (OTC: LEOM) announced today that it has signed a major contract with the city government of Puerto Princesa, of the Republic of the Philippines, to form a company to produce electric vehicles to sell in Puerto Princesa, and also throughout Asia.

The agreement includes minimum numbers of vehicles to be produced, as well as monetary contributions of up to $5 million by the government of the Philippines. The city government of Puerto Princesa, the capital of the province of Palawan, agreed to form a joint company to set up an assembly plant to supply the electric taxis and help manage the program financially. Leo Motors will supply knock-down parts and batteries for minimum 2,500 electric taxis to the joint company, and the city will subsidize 200 million Pesos (approximately $5 million U.S.). Before selecting Leo Motors, Mayor Hagedorn visited Leo Motors' factory in Seoul, and selected the model over other competitive models for being able to drive long distances and maintain peak power without losing battery power, in addition to ease of recharging.

Puerto Princesa is seeking to eliminate the pollution emitted by numerous tricycles, which emit carbons and pollution 15 times more than a typical passenger car. The city decided to create a tricycle that would make the air more breathable.

Leo Motors CEO & President Mr. John Lee said, "I am very proud that Leo Motors has signed this major agreement with the government. This contract will serve as the momentum for Leo Motors to be the leader of EV industry."

Electric vehicles to be produced by Leo Motors are 100% battery powered, and are fueled by recharging, rather than refueling at a petrol station. In the Leo Motors program in Puerto Princesa, to lower the initial E-Taxi purchasing cost, Leo Motors, together with the city in a joint venture, will operate the Fresh Battery Station, which is a battery swap center. When completed, drivers will not need to buy expensive batteries. Recharging is a simple process, which involves swapping a discharged battery for a fully charged battery, or plugging in the innovative quick charger to top up the battery at the battery swap center. Leo Motors' advances in cutting-edge battery and charger technology are dramatically improving vehicle recharge times. Battery swaps will not take more than five minutes. When completed, the center would always be available for drivers with freshly and fully recharged batteries.

Leo Motors enjoys many technical advantages over existing better known companies in acceleration, mileage and shorter charge time. Leo Motors extends the longevity of the expensive Lithium Polymer Battery through new inventions, called Omni BMS and PCM, which digitally manage and control the battery charging. Leo Motor's Super Lithium Polymer Battery Pack has the highest energy density and longest life ever developed. Such technologies are not found easily, even in the most expensive electric vehicles in the market. Lead Acid Batteries are not being used for this project because of their lower life, huge weight and contamination of the lands where disposed.

Electric cars are in the news almost daily. Large manufacturers and startups appear to be responding aggressively to changing circumstances and customer preferences. In the Philippines alone, there are 2.2 million tricycles. Neighboring countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia have more than 10 million tricycles contaminating the air. Leo Motors will have vast business opportunities in this region.

RP-made vintage jeep takes center stage

First Posted 19:45:00 04/13/2009



MANILA, Philippines -- A vintage Willys military jeep is the centerpiece of Philippine-made motor vehicle parts and accessories on display at the Philippine Pavilion of the 2009 Taipei International Auto Parts (AMPA) running from April 14 to 17, 2009 at the TWTC Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taiwan.


The display is a joint project of the Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturers Association of the Philippines (MVPMAP), the Manila Economic and Cultural Office (MECO) and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
“It is the first time for the Philippines to participate in the Taipei AMPA Show, considered as the premier auto parts show in Asia. This is also significant as this is the first time that local auto parts makers have banded together to participate in an international trade exhibit of this magnitude.


This pioneering participation in the 2009 AMPA brings to the fore Philippine ingenuity and craftsmanship as epitomized by the iconic "jeep" which through the years became the backbone and inspiration of the local "jeepney."


According to Department of Trade and Industry Secretary Peter B. Favila, "the DTI has recognized the opportunities in Taiwan for the local parts manufacturing industry, both in the market for replacement parts as well as OEM opportunities that combine Taiwanese technology with the expanded and specialised production capacities in the Philippines."


Being a truly Philippine vehicle, MVPMAP and MECO have chosen the jeep to symbolize the Philippine auto industry and what Philippine auto parts makers can do.


According to Ambassador Antonio I. Basilio, MECO resident representative and managing director, 11 local auto parts makers representing MVPMAP are participating in this four-day Taipei auto parts show: Ambrose Industries, Famous Secret Precision Machining, Fasteners Inc., Laguna Carparts Manufacturing, MD Juan Enterprises, Nito Seiki Manufacturing, OEM Parts Manufacturing, Rado Rubberworks Manufacturing, Roberts AIPMC, Supercast Foundry and Machinery and the VSO Group of Compa
