Even rednecks can be really innovative
 
Ok, maybe not a redneck. But he is definitely a hick. So anywho, this dude converted his Ford F-250 into a wood burning truck. He claims it get a gasoline equivalent close to 100 mpg. Crazy things people do to avoid paying for gas.

Yea about that, maybe it would work in the city where grease and oil is plentiful, but here in a one stop light town there is no product. I can see it now, everyone turns thier vehicle into a wood burning vehicle and we deforest the planet in like 5 years and it turns into a hot global middle east. Yea that's the ticket......NOT!!!!!!!!!!!![8D]
