Hi Kurt,
I've been running my  '97 F250 on 40% to 100% biodiesel for 2 years, with no
problems. I changed the fuel filter at 3 months, then 6 months and not since
then. It smells MUCH better, and I notice no difference in power. And, what
I'm carrying or pulling and where/how I'm driving has much more effect on
the fuel mileage than whether it's BD or petro diesel.

here in Reno.  I'm planning to blend some into my heating oil this summer
and experiment a bit on small engines before feeding the F-250 with it.

which they claim higher cetane and better lubricity than the soy-based
variant.  Still no word on when they will have production quantities,
though.
