The Mercedes Wrangler
Great article today in San Francisco: The Mercedes Wrangler is riding the eco-range. This is what I call a micro-market. A niche of a niche of a niche that can be dominated by one guy. Buy expensive mercedes diesels from LA where they are not valued and sell them in Seattle where they are valued. This guy promotes WVO as the fuel rather than biodiesel, and there are big economic benefits to that. But I like Biodiesel for the masses. The masses don't want to drive a 25 year old car. They want to drive a new car.
He mentions something called magnegas which apparently is making combustible gas for regular engines from human waste streams. I need to look into that.
