    So does this mean that Volvo drivers will now need to be fitted for special seats that will capture all the methane produced by eating truck stop food in order to improve mileage?

    Actually this might be a way for drivers to be allowed to idle their trucks since it would reduce the use of company fuel.

    Speaking of which, much like generating excess electricity would allow me to sell the excess back to the power company, could I potentially make money on those days I am especially gassy?

    Oh boy!!! I Love Chili Pie so this should work well for me.:biggrin_2559:
