deleted the tribute to Volvo diesels.  i'm a Dodge man myself.  22mpg with 
a 3/4 ton pickup and very little maintenance cost beyond oil and filter 
changes for 225,000 miles.

Replied to note that biodiesel is a refined veggie oil.  It is apparently a 
simple process which can be done at home.  The greasecar runs on straight 
grease which is why it must be started on diesel.  Biodiesel as sold is a 
mixture of petroleum diesel and veggie diesel.

Lainie   biodiesel is available in Eugene.  The keylock place at the North 
endo fo Blair Blvd.
