[Bel Air to be exact], I bought it for $2.11 with a rating of a mere 40.

Seems like bio is way more known in the Midwest as I have never seen any here in the East. Drove from Pa. to Fla. recently and didn't see any at all.

It's there, you just have to look. It's big in the "underground fuel movement" in PA and the northern states. Problem is, there's SO much regulation on EVERYTHING out there, it's probably illegal to advertise.

Go to the biodiesel forums and find someone around you who makes it and "barters" it to others. Get a 5gal tote of it to mix in your regular diesel like an additive from someone local who makes it.

Here's a PA biodiesel board:
