No, it was peanut oil, not corn oil. When Rudolf Diesel first revealed his prototype engines in the 1890s these ran on peanut oil and as early as 1912 Diesel argued that the use of vegetable oils for engine fuels might one day become "as important as petroleum and the coal-tar products of the present time". That now seems to be coming true as engineers look at what can be achieved using biodiesel rather than petrodiesel.

haha veggie oil is FREE! You go to a restaurant, find the grease bin, take some oil home, clean it, and put it in your truck. Its that simple. For everyone whos not afraid to get their hands dirty, veggie oil is the solution, not hybrids.

@narutojose2 Ummmm, ok. Biodiesel burns clean, with lower emissions. So lets see... we can't use oil, which has a finite supply. We can't use plants, even though they are renewable, because it causes the earth to die? Right. I hate to break it to you, but the earth has been around for millions of years. There is nothing WE (humans) are going to do to affect it in the long term short of a nuclear disaster whether thats a war or an accident. So I'm genuinely curious. What is YOUR solution?

@miamivice966 Well next time check twice because the more this earth dies the less renewable plants will be especially that your using them to create more pollution because they might run on that but the same thing still comes out in the end, unwanted gas.

@narutojose2 Last time I checked, plants were a renewable resource. So the problem using them is???
