The TOXTOUR Truck is a 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty 4x4 Crew Cab Pickup Truck converted to run on vegetable oil using a Greasecar conversion kit, by mechanic Mark Penta of Gilead Garage in Bethel, Vermont. Why did we choose to run vegetable oil in our truck? Well, we did a little reading before we made up our minds... "No doubt you've been hearing about biodiesel...but Greasecar has come up with a smarter, cheaper way to drive greener. Cleaner and more fuel-efficient...and free at fast food and chinese joints nationwide." -OUTSIDE Magazine
"If alternative fuels race your pacemaker, nothing is more tree-hugging, slam-dunk organic than greasin' it."
-Car and Driver
