Just want to hear all of your oppinions. With the rising gas prices I have really been looking into the option of making my own bio diesel. I would like to keep my f150 though, meaning that I would have to put a diesel engin it. What do you think of the idea?? and most of all does anybody have any sugestions as to what kind and size diesel I might be able to use? and if doing the whole conversion is even worth it, let alone possible? I would really appriciate the input!! Thanks

How bad do you need a truck? A number of people here have "admitted" to having a commuter car with great mileage in addition to their truck... another idea... that way you can keep the truck and have good mileage.

then there's the problem with the commuter car. u can shell out just as much, if not more, for that commuter car's payment as you would for gas for the truck...or, just buy a commuter for $500-$1000.
