$0.05/mile!!!!!!!!!!! HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!
I estimate the WVO costs me $0.50/gal (this includes
pickup/filtering/piping/pumping/etc)

Let's see -- Luther posted $0.05/gal. for the waste oil in his post
about the trip to MPLS. If Dino Diesel is $2.50/gal., then the savings
is $2.45/gal. $2000/$2.45=816 gal. saved. If your 240D gets 25mpg,
that's 20408 miles. At your 4 miles/day commute, that's 20.4 years for
you to break even. Go for it - you'll live that long!

Maybe too many econ classes at GMU, but I wonder how long it would take
for
reasonable return on investment on a $2K WVO system, not counting the
time
needed to collect / filter / process / pray over the WVO.
