Sounds like they're marketing this to well-heeled folks who _really, really_ dislike propane, or folks who insist on being able to travel all bridges, tunnels, and ferries without restriction, and maybe have a fascination with new (green?) technology. Personally I wouldn't buy it, but that's just my opinion.

I'm guessing that would be the market. I have seen some of the "eco RV" crowd, either younger people who feel propane is "evil", and want to try WVO as a fuel source. I hope RT does well with this vehicle.
Maybe it shows my age. My idea of a cool accomplishment would be making both the generator and the vehicle's engine bi-fuel, and allowing either to run off the internal LP gas tank or the gasoline tank. That way, in the summer going from RV park to RV park, propane is cheap and very clean, then come winter, leave the LP gas for the furnace and switch both the engines to gasoline. With a system like that, running out of either fuel doesn't mean an end of the camping trip.
