I have never seen diesel fuel explode, burn black as hell but not explode. And besides what better smell in the world than diesel, in the can or the exhuast lol?
They aren't lead acid batteries and wheres the concern about all the junk batteries from cameras, laptop computers, cell phones and Blackberries?
Have you ever seen a battery from a hybrid vehicle explode? Have you ever seen one "burn black as hell"?
