Good to see this. Great vid.

Was re-reading your fuel log. Excellent notes. Have missed your participation.

Man, the price of fuel sure hurts! What is the price spread in your area between #2 Diesel and Bio-D?

I see that we started our logs at the same time (Jan 09) but the fuel price differential is one dollar/gl. So, even though your average mpg is 20% better, the cpm fuel cost at 14 versus 16 puts in mind I may need to learn a bit of P&G for some routes.

On the other hand, being smack dab in the middle of the Eagle Ford oil & gas boom, it'd be like driving with pulsing neon lights, ha!

Every time I see an IDI Ford I think about whether it would make a good second vehicle (one I can't justify as I don't need it, but your experience makes real).
