I can't tell you how shocked I am that there has been so little resistance to this concept and also surprised that this topic has eviendetly not been gone over prior. I thought for sure you guys would have 6 ways to Sunday to shoot this thing full of holes. Jon has posed the only plausible concern being that if the engine coasts to a hault for some reason with fat in the lines then your SOL once the fat cools and solidifies. Under normal operation of course what happens is that you switch back to diesel for a few minutes prior to shutting down.

The idea of having several "stages" on the supply truck is good. Would take a lot less time to metl 35 gallons of fat until the balance got up to operating temperature. This system only makes sense of course if your either logging lots of miles OR if you've given up on the bling award and want to have bragging rights at POG III. Someone has suggested selling the idea or something to that effect. I don't think I have the time to make a business out of it but I would be a customer RIGHT NOW if someone said they could sell me a pre-provisioned truck with tanks and a refinery in the bed of the truck and show me the ropes of collecting used vegetable oil. Maybe that IS a business for someone. Sounds like the next best thing to being a Green Peace member to save the whales in the event you can't get away to ride shotgun on an inflatable in the oceans.

To the part timer, this obviously only makes sense if you've got an interest in it as a hobby or topic of conversation. I can imagine that if I were an independent truck driver this would make even more sense.
