    Unfortunately we can't, that's a top secret government facility where top men work. Top men...

    It's a good point, if the apocolypse happens gas will be at a premium, and the VX is a guzzler. Wish it was a deisel with better mpg.

    You guiz and girlz know that after about 8-12 months after the apocalypse gasoline will not run most modern engines or even most older engines. The necessary additives will have evaporated.

    Given current technology you better hope you don't have to drive more than a few hundred miles or that you don't have more than a few rainy days in a row.

    Anything is probably cheaper than gas...I'd settle for a strong 4 cylinder in the vx if it got me 25 to 30mpg.

    I had gas in my snowmobile for 3 years and it ran on it. I burn old gas through my ford F-150, fuel injected, it spits and sputters a little bit but it burns.
