and thats what i remember seeing was a Benz...I’ve heard of a WWII “wood-burning Mercedes” and I believe the German term for it is “Holzgas-Generator”. Saw a photo of a Volkswagen equipped with this device.
and thats what i remember seeing was a Benz... That's a completely different (and completely impractical, and completely uneconomic) technology. I remember (years ago) Mother Earth News publishing an article about a truck making a cross-country trip, fueled (IIRC) by carbon monoxide derived from burning wood. So what? You could probably get a truck from coast to coast, pushed by 'Sports Illustrated' readers, if you had enough pull. Would that provide any benefit whatsoever to an average (like me) American? No. Period. End of story (in the real world, that is, not the D@mocrat world). And that is exactly what most D@mocrat proposals amount to - all fluff, and absolutely no real substance...
