Carls Corner is where you are talking about txgrn. I buy Willies biodiesel there all the time. I have been running it for about 6 months. I love it. It is 20% biodiesel (supposedly soybeans). It is my understanding that the big 3 automakers warranties are not voided by an 80/20 mixture. They suggest you change your fuel filter after a tank or two because it cleans your system really well & could get some gunk in the filter. My truck (duramax) runs quieter on it & runs great. I didnt really notice an increase in mileage but all the truckers say they get about 1mpg better mileage. Lots of folks using it & so far it has been pretty comparable in price, actually lower than you can usually buy diesel around Dallas. They keep a spiral notebook on a table there & they invite folks to write their comments about the fuel. Everybody loves it. He just added two more tanks..& is now selling 40% and 5%. I have heard that you need to be careful burning biodiesel in anything '94' or older cause it could make rubber seals/hoses leak. Dont know if that applies to B20 or just to straight B100 but I dont burn it in my tractor yet. Give it a try if you get the chance.
