| #4 1) Members of nomenclatura wouldn't fit in trabant. LOL! 2) Trabis ran on gas. You could use vegetable oil in some diesel engines, but no matter how yummy the oil is, trabant would not move an inch if you poured it down its tank. Durn memory :) |

| #2 If memory serves, the principal fuel source was used vegetable oil. Members of the nomenklatura , I suppose, pulled up to the pump and ordered the attendent to "fill 'er up! Mit Wesson!". |
