Ok, so a nearby dealership just got a 97.5 slantback in from alaska. I've been thinking about the possibility of trading in the H2 for the H1. With the ramblings in my head, I've decided if I were to do that, I would like to run it on bio-diesel / B100. I've looked at SVO/WVO and stuff, but I don't feel like adding tanks/modifying the engine. Has anybody had experience with running a vehicle on B100?

I'm thinking I could hit up the local asian restaurants and mom/pop restaurants for the oil, and then purchase a mixer kit ($4k) to mix it up. The only concern would be storage (in the garage?) and cold weather operation. I know you can purchase additives for cold weather...but not sure on cost.

Any comments would be appreciated....
