About
After just discussing with Elliot about purchasing an RV, I genuinely began to look into purchasing one for a road trip. I quickly realized that a gasoline powered RV, getting six mpg, was not going to be feasible. So, I began to look into diesels for better fuel miliage. The next logical step was to realize, Eureka!, I could convert this thing to Waste Vegetable Oil and that would significantly reduce the fuel costs for a road trip. So, here I was looking for a diesel motor home. After some looking, I found this repairman's special. Here I am, with my RV. It runs great and only has about 30k miles on the motor and 15k miles on the transmission along with 80k on the whole chassis. I love working on cars and anything mechanical. This trip all summer can be my final long, random vacation before moving on to the real world of work.

Hello Everyone,
Its Elliot here, reporting live from Austin, Texas after a successful day of work on the RV and WVO filtration system. Despite just beginning our travels we have learned quickly how to adjust to any hurdles of filtering and collecting waste vegetable oil, while handling any fits that Sunshine cares to give us. After some new tires, filtration system version 2.0, new plastic cubies, and a thousand miles trekked we have survived the high and lows while improving on our project. Bradenstein (aka Disaster Bradster aka B-rad) and I have spent the last decade putting some tire to the pavement, leading us to challenges and adventures such as the one we find ourselves in today. I plan to continue to pursue my passion to see as much of the world, my home, and meeting as many of its people throughout my existence. To all who come across this text, take a look at our parts list, try to understand the conversion process, and in the future please consider making a WVO powered vehicle from a used diesel car or truck!
Peace,
Elliot Arroyo Casillas

About
In the Fall of 2009, Brad and I were out on a Wednesday night talking about an epic trip that we wanted to make happen for the coming summer. So after a while Brad got back to me and was saying that he was seriously looking into an RV, I initially thought this idea would die on the night of its birth, but Brad was serious about it, so I became serious as well. After a long ordeal of trying to get the RV running to get it back to Gainesville, we have arrived at the end of the semester before the summer. I know that I'll be graduating in the Fall and beginning my life as an amateur racer, chasing down huge sponsorships, so a long three-month break will be nice to get to familiarize myself with the country I will undoubtedly be driving around for the coming years of my life.
