The limo weighs 8 tons, it has a diesel engine.

I always thought that diesels could run on just about anything, even cooking oil......

My Dad had one of those tractors. A Farmall H.

Wouldn’t be much good today as gasoline is $3.65 a gallon and Kerosene is $5.29.

Yup I could hardly believe it myself when I read it on the sign. K-1 Kero $5.29.

Frankly, I’m surprised the SS doesn’t take along their own fuel for the Beast. Relying on locally-sourced or locally-provided fuel would conceivably leave it open to tampering, resulting in exactly this sort of situation - and when a President was actually in the vehicle. Not a good risk to take.

It makes sense. China has been towing us ever since we used the wrong President.

Just like his Administration - out of gas and being pulled on the backs of the productive.
