Time for an outta the box solution.
NH is the 2nd most forested state in the US. There's gotta be some way to take full advantage.
Maybe one of these. I like the idea that if I'm close to empty, I can just pull over to the roadside and toss in a couple sticks of maple and be on my way. Gotta figure the emissions and the occasional chimney fire would discourage tailgaters.

Originally built for a French count, this 1884 De Dion-Bouton et Trepardoux — aka “La Marquise” — will go on the auction block this August in Pebble Beach, Calif. Surprisingly, the 123-year-old steam-powered car still runs … on coal and wood. It was raced a year before Daimler and Benz built their first gasoline-powered cars and 12 years before Henry Ford’s auto effort.
The auction company estimates La Marquise’s value at $1.5 to $2 million, but with the recent trend of over-inflated prices at exotic-car auctions, we could see the old count’s coach going for much more than that.

Gotta figure that if gas goes high enough, the ole count's jalopy could be paid for sometime around 2014.
