This is an article that tries to answer why oil is important in a world that uses so much nuclear energy--Lodley 02:09, October 18, 2009 (UTC)

Why this article?
I have seen this question of why oil was important a lot in the discussion pages. So I though we should make an article discussing the possible reason oil was important when cars ran on nukes. --Lodley 02:09, October 18, 2009 (UTC)

Non Fallout 3 cleanup
I'm only familiar with fallout3 so if any of this information contradicts the other works or there is something I missed pleas add it. --Lodley 02:09, October 18, 2009 (UTC)

Lubrication? Dubious
It is dubious that fossil fuel oil would be needed as a lubricant for a nuclear powered machine, as there are many manmade alternatives to fossil fuel oil for lubrication, some of them even in use today in the real world. Can this be substantiated? -- Braindigitalis 13:27, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
