| __________________________________ [Apr 6,2010 4:59pm - Paul CNV ""] Info please |
| __________________________________________ [Apr 6,2010 5:02pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] i just did a search and found "Bandago" hybrid vans. fuckin 1000.00 for a week. blah http://www.bandago.com/ |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 6,2010 5:08pm - arilliusbm ""] from what I remember most of these ideas fell through due to lack of consistency. there were a number of hippies that made their vw vans run on veggie oil but it wasn't meant for long rides. I could be wrong though. I didn't know you could rent them. Out in the Midwest they have more gas stations that carry ethanol fuel for cars that have ethanol capabilities. But from what I understand there hasnt been much progress in that area and it's not reliable like gas cars. Doesn't really matter but in India they are developing air-powered cars. hoepfully that'll hit the states soon. everything these days is hybrid or straight up electric. |

| ________________________________ [Apr 6,2010 10:13pm - ernie ""] the hivsmashers had one, if i remembercorrectly they paid 1500 for a week and it came with enough fuel to last almost the entire time. it was pretty sweet, butyou could seriously just buy your own van for that much money. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 6,2010 10:23pm - Paul CNV ""] yup and that is what I shall do... My Heavy Metal Thunder Van will crush and destroy all |

| ______________________________ [Apr 7,2010 12:23am - BSV ""] my roommate took one on tour to north carolina back in jan. i think they had a deal with a hitch and trailer that applied especially to bands. he said they were great to work with and totally backs them. abnormality is considering renting from them for a weekend in may. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 7,2010 8:00am - aaron_michael ""] wicked expensive, but a smooth ride. I'm surprised he's not responding. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 7,2010 8:03am - KPANZER ""] Paul, tell him the name of the band is RAINBOW OF TOLERANCE, he might call back. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 7,2010 8:05am - aaron_michael ""] I think his band may be in europe right now, so I could see cell phones being a bitch to use. Did you guys send an e-mail? |
