Living in the city (Los Angeles) for the past 10 years, my vehicles tend to be built for speed and easy parking (although i did love my Jeep Grand Wagoneer that i drove for awhile). When contemplating a WVO vehicle i was first drawn to the Mercedes from the late 80’s and early 90’s. Their ability to run on practically any oil was very attractive. If it was just about driving, i probably would have stuck with that plan.
The reality of starting out to collect and process your own fuel dictates that a more work oriented vehicle is required. Collecting is likely to be messy and i am going to have a fair bit of supplies to haul to the WVO preparation system i need to install.
So i’ll be buying a truck and selling the sports car. Who knows, if I make this WVO thing work out, perhaps i can convince the wife to get an old Benz and i can have it both ways! Here’s to wishing!
There are some great forums with smart people and loads of experience. Here are a couple that I am focusing on:
