Does anyone have any suggestions on alternative fuels for our beasts? I have thought about a vegitable oil substute for dino oil and using the same refining process/additives may prove to be a good fuel. Another would be methanol/vegitable oil/benzine mix. Any thoughts? in these days of rising fuel cost, we need to think about other fuel mixtures that are as efficient as gasoiline.

Hehe well I dont think they are gonna have a V8 Diesel as an engine option haha. BTW the Tornado does get me another 1mpg highway. Power wise maybe 1 or 2 hp - but it does have a really cool whistle sound hehe.
