First time Bio fill-up tomorrow
I'm headed up to the Redwoods for the weekend and I figured I'd fill up in Santa Rosa since they have Biodiesel. I have an extra filter in case it clogs up, but what should I go for ratio-wise?

B5

Ya, I'm aware of that...My concern is Dodge says B5 max to not void warranty (Out of warranty currently), but on Fleet vehicles I recall they listed B10.
B2 gives better lubricity than any other fuel additives available, but I'd like to go as high as possible to try it out.

I doubt you will notice a difference no matter which ratio you choose. If you want more of a detergent action I would imagine you should go with a higher concentration.
I know my rig doesn't like more than 50% bio.

Went with B20, probably B15 since I wasn't on empty when I filled her up.
She didn't like it much in the higher elevation or long upgrades, but at sea level, she gets along quite well and is much quieter.

It was a dime more than regular #2, which I was fine with, it was still cheaper than the immediate bay area.
She seemed to have more rattle on long grades/higher elevation than when I run straight #2 at even higher altitudes.
