We were pretty close in Minnesota to mandating the use of a 5% bio-diesel fuel supplement in all diesel sold in the state. It is produced from soybeans. It contains no sulfur, produces fewer emissions, offers better wear protection to injector pumps, and is non-toxic. It can be run in a modern diesel engine at up to a 20% mixture with very few ill effects - on engines made before 1994, it can deteroriate rubber.
I wish I could import a BMW turbo diesel into the US - a 330td produces 240 lbs/ft of torque while achieving above 40 mpg.
