does anyone here run their car on WVO? i eventually want to do this. i drive a geo at the moment and it's easy on gas, but eventually i want to get an old truck and convert it to run on WVO. i'm not so much interested in SVO (straight vegetable oil) since it costs about as much to use, and only increases demand for new oil; but the way i see it it'll be a long time before mcdonald's goes out of business, and if i can run my car on their grease, more power to me (i won't even mind that it smells like fries.) what are your experiences with using this, or do you know anyone who has? thanks!

I love it. I wouldn't mind if it smelled like fries either. It would be kind of neat to have all the dogs in the neighborhood following you home, lol. I have heard of WVO, but don't really know that much about it. My friend's daughter has a hybrid car that runs on biofuel, and it is really great. She loves it. I recently heard that they are trying to come up with an engine that runs off of water, and are having success so far. I think WVO is a wonderful option to the gas crisis and emition control though. Great post. +++
