Good news for those who live in the Tacoma and North Pierce County.
Associated Petroleum is now offering B99 for $2.71 per gallon at the pump. Average price of Diesel last week was $2.71 per gallon.
Location, Port of Tacoma road and Pacific Hwy 99, just of I-5.
Credit card or CFN card, accepted.
I was just already to purchase a 55 gallon barrel, now there is no need, good news indeed.

I read that article yesterday also http://www.thenewstribune.com/business/consumer/story/4845588p-4449319c.html
It sure would be nice to see a refinery pop up in eastern WA. Good jobs and cheaper, renewable fuel:ro)
Are you mixing/diluting the b99 down?

I am going to start out mixing B20 tonight, then move up to 50/50 in a couple of weeks. I live close to work, so it takes me awhile to go through a tank

I made it in there on my way to work this morning. I put in 10 gallons then rolled across the street to the Flying J and topped of the tank. When I got to the Flying J I had to get out and sniff my exhaust):h mmmmm Freedom Fries! I feel like I'm driving a deep fryer! It'll be interesting to see how the power and mileage are by comparison.
I'm hoping to hear more feedback about hose and seal deterioration over the long haul. BTW it was $2.70 for the B-100 and $2.33 for Diesel @FJ.

Right now I am at 3/4 tank, so I will just fill up with B100.
My plan is to alternate once I get going. I will fill once I get to half of tank I will fill up B100 one time, then D2 the next fill up.
This is a good thing, I am sure Bio sales will take off now.
