RTW with a biodiesel powered Landcruiser

Not sure if anyone has seen these guys yet, but they're currently travelling along the US West coast and proceeding around the world. Their Landcruiser is outfitted with a WVGO (waste veggie oil) processing plant and they're travelling the world on waste oil donations.

Being a cynical old bastard - do they know that McDonalds are not in every oasis across the Sahara? or that the nearest fish and chip shop maybe two countries away?

Good luck to them, hope it works out well.

Donno...I'd imagine cooking oil in some form is plentiful anywhere people are plentiful (and well fed at least). Mind you, with a 320litre tank, I imagine they could make it to just about any fast food joint...
