    Putting aside the stupidity. What are the actual benefits of this? It’s not like gas is hard to come by… And the added weight and reduced aerodynamics probably means fewer mpg, right?

      Given the color it could be used cooking oil for a biodiesel conversion. But outside of cost saving from fuel ubiquity, none of it is an improvement for anything.

              Could also be that they’re collecting the cooking oil for another use or vehicle and just put the hose down there as a gag.
