So easy to read that at first glance as 'electric' fuels.

There's a guy in south or north Carolina who might be in big trouble with
his state treasury dept or whomever, for doing veggie conversions to diesel
cars and not paying road fuel tax, something like that.
Crazy, no ?

Paul mentions...

Road usage tax and the hassle of filing and being audited is more than most
want to deal with. This discourages many to not use alterative fuels,
eclectic, propane, natural gas and methane (to name a few).

....

I wonder what qualifies as an eclectic fuel.  Buffalo Chips?  Mao tse Dong?
(say it to understand)

I can see the calculations now...41 miles used two bags of chips...
