Please do not start any new "Gas or Diesel" threads. Please read all of the following and post in the appropriate thread:


Unless you've come up with something completely new (eg. converting to propane) please do not start a new thread on fuel type.

Thanks!

Also- thanks to Geoff for putting the list together.

I was thinking the same thing. I split the difference on that one and stock both varieties.

How about Mac vs PC? Windows vs Linux? Beta vs VHS? Ginger vs Mary Ann? Ford vs Chevy?

One of the first questions a non smb-er usually asks is where does the 50 cal pop out of.

slightly back to the diesel advancements, there's a fellow out in Kansas near where I used to live who's taking a diesel turbine and installing it in place of the engine, and using it to power electric hub motors. Getting crazy mileage numbers and has all the electricity generating power any geek would need.

I'm glad you posted this thread.

Buji,

Given where we have recently seen your SMB,...well... I thought you might have the 50 cal option!
