Wrong Fuel Chokes Presidential Limo

Posted by timothy on from the so-this-doesn't-happen-only-to-my-brother dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Fueling your car with the wrong type of fuel happens even to POTUS. This happens when you put gasoline instead of diesel in the tank. ...." And Yes, the presidential limo really is a diesel. What about clean, renewable solar?

    timothy, you moron, in fuel efficiency and hydrocarbon pollution, diesel is actually better for the environment than regular gas.

    This is not a President who leads by example; he's one who leads by rhetoric and simple mind-capturing speaking methods.

    If a solar vehicle were actually to be used by the P-rez, it's hard to say what effect it would have on the public, but my gut feeling is it would encourage heavy-pocketed individuals to try and 'catch up' to what the top dogs (gov't) are doing.

    Trickle-down behavior ensues. Just a theory.
