Oh, Brain ... good thing I see you right here. You know, I am lazy, so I didn't do any investigative forum search on alternative diesel fuel, maybe you could point in that general direction ...

Oh well, I just found 'whunter's' Biofuel and WVO sticky ...

Try not to crash, but I wouldn't mind $12,000 157mpg car for my 100% highway commute. It'd be cheaper than the wagon.

I'm thinking 0 to 60 in ten seconds is acceptable. Would be great around town. I risk my life on a bicycle all the time.

I have a wild idea to try to transplant a BMW 2.0 or smaller diesel into my 325i when the motor goes south. It's a great chassis, IMO, and much energy is expended in building a chassis and body.

The new BMW diesels are skookum.
