    It doesn't just have to be recycled junk food oil that you use; one can make their biodiesel using fresh veggie oil (i.e. that has touched nary a french fry*) for about $1 a gallon.

    With a little research, you can even make a winter blend of homemade biodiesel that won't coagulate, etc. even in Snow Belt winters. I'm planning to buy an old diesel Suburban and install the biodiesel kit on it; it will offer the towing/hauling capacity of a full-size SUV with significantly better mileage...and for ~ $1 a frickin' gallon?!? Try to beat that.
