If kids can do it why can't it be produced?

I watched the video and see good hard work and thinking by those students > 65mpg on $25K budget.
The 2nd car is a FFR GTM, looks like kits start at 21K:

What bugs me is that 'O' is still pushing 'you didn't build that'.
1:33 mark - "They didn't win the competition, they're kids.. come on" Any chance he gets to minimize or belittle those who actually invent, reinvent, build or are entrepreneurial.

I know this is gum flappers but that stood out when I watched the video.

I think the O was trying to be funny...I don't stand up for him often, but seems like he was attempting to be humorious. This kids seem to have taken it that way.

As for the cars, I wish the parts to convert existing vehicles into hybrids was better.
