I'm running 100% Homemade Biodiesel and still getting the same mileage. I do have a problem with always getting hungry for Mexican food though
The Cummins Luvs the stuff, as long as you properly control the process it won't hurt it at all.
I just love paying about $1.5g, when everyone else is paying almost $3

I drive ultra conservatively. Having a manual makes it nice. I shift around 15-1700, and coast to stops. In heavy traffic I just put it in first or second and creep along....sometimes a big gap opens but eventually it closes....it beats speeding up and slowing down lol. I also drive no more than 55-60 on the interstate. I got almost 740 on my last tank, a new high. Averaged about 21 or so. I even mixed in some "crazy" driving. I'm confident I can get well over 800 to a tank if I try hard enough.

I would like to get some more info from you on your process for biosiesel and how it is working out for you. I am going to purchase a Dodge diesel in the near future and I am concerned about warranty issues, perhaps I should buy a used one out of warranty and not have to be concerned. I would appreciate your thoughts and comments.

I just got 16.2mpg from SF to LA and back via I5....I was no lower than 65mph and no higher than 86mph, the bulk of it was at 80mph, of 900 miles probably 750 of it was at 80-85mph. I'm happy with that as my 02 magnum would have been around 9mpg. Best observed was 21-22, can't recall the exact but it was in between those.
