Do you know of any new or shortly-anticipated diesel 4x4 vehicles that would be able to run on B100. I am considering making my own fuel, but am concerned that I won't be able to use it as desired. Thank you for your help. I hope to hear from you soon. regards, Howard Thank you for all of your work in expanding the conversation around biodiesel.

My 2004 F350 runs great on it (100% in summer, 50% biodiesel in winter). I have a 2009 VW Jetta TDI on order. I can't wait to put 5 gal biodiesel into the tank upon delivery in front of the dealer to purposely void the warranty. I'll let their mechanics service the car and prove my brew works. I service 3 vehicles on my brew. Can't solve the country's vehicle energy problems... just my family's. I have been making home brew biodiesel (from WVO) for 6 months now.

Driving at all still emits greenhouse-gases (GHG). Even soybean-based biodiesel, which isn’t the best possible option, may offer a GHG reduction of 41% when compared to regular diesel. Biodiesel made from used cooking oil (or algae), does much better.

see #15: http://gas2.org/2008/04/10/biodiesel-mythbuster-20-twenty-two-biodiesel-myths-dispelled/

In reference to your link, there’s a very important distinction to make here: biofuels != biodiesel

No one wants to buy biodiesel made from a feedstock that destroys virgin rainforest. Fortunately, we don’t have to. Keep those distinctions in mind…
