Bio-Truck

I saw this vehicle at a energy conference in N. Missouri last month.

The V6 pickup gets about 1.5 miles per pound of wood, and can do about 65 miles per hour.

Saw something similar in an old movie. Apparently, this idea was used in parts of Europe during WWII when gasoline was hard to get.

I like "miles per pound of wood" better than MPG

So if my math is right... A 3500# dry cord of hardwood will take you 5250 miles.


Not really all that practical but, not bad
