NEW YORK, March 23 (UPI) -- Two Canadians said their record-setting drive in a vegetable-oil-powered van reached 23,697 miles in New York.
Tyson Jerry, 26, and Cloe Whittaker, 24, said they reached the mark -- enough to surpass the alternative-fuel driving record set two years ago by a German team using natural gas power -- Monday at New York's Robert F. Wagner Middle School, and they are expecting the drive home to Victoria, British Columbia, the New York Daily News reported Tuesday.
