looking for Veg oil, I-40, I-95 road trip

Hello,

I have a 75' 300D w/ a veg conversion and am looking for Veg oil to fuel my journey between Tucson AZ area and Upstate NY.

I have a packed car with a travel box on top, so I plan on going a route that is fairly flat. Likely I'll probably go up to Albuquerque, NM, then across I-40, then up I-95. Plan on beginning my travels Wednesday.

I made some PMs to people on the fillupforfree website, but so far haven't gotten any responses. So, any info you have on sources for filtered veg oil along the way would be greatly appreciated.

-Brian

Good to update all these threads with your progress. I am in Northern Virginia and have plenty of clean VO. Feel free to contact me.

I also travel to upstate NY, where are you headed?

Anyone heard from this traveler?

I am on the start of downhill along I-40 from the NC mountains, right on the continental divide! I would be happy to refuel your SVO before you reach I-95 junction.
May be able to connect you to another near Raleigh, NC too.

Plus I need some help with delivery of parts from Ithaca, NY to here (refill on your way home? )
