I currently run a diesel engine on straight vegetable oil from Costco. The cost is around $5.20 per gallon, excluding the cost of getting it to my house (a 15 mile round trip).
Why would someone pay twice as much for a fuel when they could go to the gas station on the corner and pay 1/2 as much? Why would someone pay an extra $.30 per gallon for commercial biodiesel (B20)?
The answer for me is obvious; others may find it less so. Take a look around you.
