WVO and no modifications to car, ?s

I have searched and read many many good threads on WVO. There is a mountain of information here. Many people are stating that you must have a heating system to run WVO. But splattered throughout these threads pops the occasional message stating, you don't need a heated fuel system to run WVO. Many times the point was made that these engines are not the same as the original Rudolph Diesel designed to run on peanut oil. OK, point taken. I still wonder . . . .

I do not want to offend anyone, but I also read many posts where the author states 'I think' or 'I heard'. I really don't want speculative answers to my questions. Again, no offense intended, but would prefer those who have actual hands on experience to answer the following:

Do you run WVO in an unmodified Mercedes? If so,
1. What are the particulars of the car?
2. What is the ambient temp when you run WVO?
3. What State do you live in?
4. What negative affects did you experience, if any?
5. What positive affects did you experience, if any?
6. How many miles have you driven running WVO?
7. Do you blend WVO and another fuel? What mixture?
8. Any other comments . . . .

Thanks for any input.
