Yeah I'm with you dago..
E-85 and bio diesel are made right here in Minn. Pump Diesel fuel is 2% or B2 here and has lots more benefits than detractions as far as I'm concerned. I plan on running E-85 in my hot rod next year. $2.15 per gal and 105+ octane...what more can you want.

Diesel will have to get close to $5 gallon before I can make my own fuel practically. I don't think home brewers should be taxed on this .. They simply do not and can not make a significant amount of fuel. They use waste oil that is often recycled and re-sold to the retail markets. Very little tax dollars. Besides I have to pay taxes on all the chemicals and components used to manufacture the little amount that I would use so it is not like I would be bypassing taxes. I don't think you should be able to run farm fuel or red stuff as we call it on the road. You are bypassing state and fed road taxes that everyone has to pay.

If you really want to be green bio diesel is about as green as it gets. It's completely bio degradable. Push came to shove you could use fresh B100 for salad dressing. It's nothing but a highly refined vegatable oil. One heck of a laxative. haha

Would I have to pay sales tax on the soap I could make from the leftover glycerine?? How about tax on the fireplace pellets that can be made from wood chips and leftover fats.

And for the gassers, home brewed ethanol is quite a powerfull drink, .....no experience just hear say. haha

All the by products of both fuels are biodegradable.
