F-150 Truck Runs on Wood

Dave Nichols modified his 1989 F-150 truck to run on wood, wood pellets, construction site debris and other waste products. The truck gets about 1.5 to 2 miles per pound, with a top speed of 75-85 (versus 90 when running on gas). The bed-mounted system is Dave's fifth version of the biofuel apparatus, and resembles a trash can or woodstove. Dave's Web site describes it:

This is not a glorified woodstove on wheels. The processor is actually vaporizing the wood and capturing the clean gaseous fuel that the engine can use directly. This fuel burns so efficiently that it leaves no harmful emissions.
