1,000 miles of range, it said, and requires refills of distilled water about every 200 miles.
My car has a range of 6000 miles. That is how often I have to stop to change the motor oil. Of course, I also have to stop every 300 miles to get some gas.

For that matter, exactly how much will that distilled water cost you every 200 miles?
Last time I looked for it, distilled water cost more than gas (mind you that was back when gas was 2 bucks a gallon, not the 4-4.50 it is now in the US)

Distilled water is usually about $0.90/gallon at the grocery store.
