It's already costing me $50 to fill up the VX! :(

Still worth every penney though ;)

If you don't want to buy gas, buy a Horse :p :p

Time to get a group buy together and fill up a container in the UK with Trooper TD drivetrains for our own bio-diesel conversions.

Try and catch the show "Trucks!" on SpikeTV, specifically the episode "Makin' Fuel". After that episode you'll truly wonder why your not driving diesel.

The truly ironic thing is, the internal combustion engine was never designed to run on petroleum based fuel and Rudolph Diesel made his engine to run on peanut oil. Our dependance on petroleum has been totally fabricated and maintained by profit-hungry corporations and our continued support of the fallacy.

Oh and u can put it in with your diesel fuel. unlike http://www.greasel.com/General.html where u have to install some stuff and run ur diesel fule for so long for start up flick switch to go to greasel then when parked do same switch to diesel let run for couple of minutes.
