Jeep Liberty CRD
Biofuel powered daily driver

The goal of this project is to create a realistic, attainable biofuel powered expedition capable vehicle. The starting point for this vehicle is a factory original CRD diesel powered Jeep Liberty, which can run B100 off the showroom floor. When finished, this project will be capable of lengthy jaunts into the backcountry with a minimal carbon footprint. More information coming soon.
