ectolle Rookie Author Indiana Posts:67 Points:19,440 Joined:Jul 2011	Message Posted: Mar 5, 2013 11:30:49 PM Ignore ectolle Report Abuse Fair oaks is less then an hour from me and is a very neat place. I actually build gas engines at Caterpillar that run on Methane (manure and trash) and make power. The trucks run up and down 65 and are easy to spot since they have a huge square tank behind the cab and different style fuel tanks.
