About 65 cents per gallon for B100 lately. ;)



Around $1. 06 per gallon for B80 (custom mix).



Petrol-diesel is now at $3. 13 and rising.

$2. 95 for B99 today. . OUCH! 42 gallons (I brought 2-5 gallon diesel cans to fill up too). . It's hard to grasp, spending a little more, but telling yourself that you're supporting the farmer, not the rag-head... Does that make sense??

I've been wanting to add a gallon of B100 to my fuel to see how the pump does. No luck finding it at all North of the SF Bay area. There are alot of places selling the $2k processors, but no one selling the fuel.

Is biodiesel taxed at the same rate as dino? Is it subsidized by tax dollars?



If it's taxed lower at one level and subsidized at another, as it becomes more popular, won't the states and Feds want to do something about the reduced tax revenue? After all, they're hooked on taxes like heroin addicts.
 
69roadrunner good question I do not know.



But I also have a question, last year or was it the year before. Dino Diesel was $1. 59-$1. 79. With B99 going for $1. 99. Why is it that Bio has gone up so much? Have people just decided to switch and now the demand is much greater or is there just I want to make as much possible scenario.

B100 - $2. 40 a gallon in Bel Air, MD from American Independence BioDiesel (co-located with Duvall's Small Engine Repair) - Talk to Greg.
 
I don't know the current price but the last time I got B-20 it was about 10 cents a gallon cheaper. I only get it when I go to visit my parents, nobody around me is handling it, so I buy it over 100 gallons at a time in one of those big in bed fuel tanks. Hurts the wallet one month but lasts me about two :) Isn't it ironic how all of a sudden after everyone started talking about using biodiesel and ethanol all the oil producing companies and countries decided to increase production and drop th price :-laf
 
B100 In NW Washington

I live north of Seattle, about 20 mins from the Canadian border.

I'm paying $3. 09/gal for B100, made by Whole Energy 35 mi. S of where I live.

They sell it out of a trailer two days/week.

In talking with the 'attendant' (who's one of their principals), he said they've had 4 price changes in their 3-yr history... three of them downward, as their efficiency increases. They've tripled their sales output in the last year.

Petro diesel is currently $2. 69/gal.



I'm happy to be "buying locally", and not padding Big Oil profits.



Currently planning out a full SVO/WVO conversion system.

Yes and yes. It carries the same "road tax" as any other fuel. There was a $1. 00/gallon tax rebate available to reseller/blenders for a while, I'm pretty sure it's still in effect. No, that math doesn't work out, but it was/is an incentive to use bio.



EDIT: Even w/o the tax rebate incentive, bio should not be over $2/gal now, off-road. Yeah, soybeans are up a little from last spring when bio was $1. 94, but not that much.
