Hey, why not? The guy probably had all this hydrogen just lying around and decided to put it to good use.

Wonder if you could run one on bacon grease?

Best part is the 700 miles between fills (on the large tanks). 300 miles on the compact tanks shown in the photo.
Not sure about the 1/4 mile times
