The station I buy it from brings it in by rail. What is that 10,000 gals? 15K?
At 10K gals that would last me 300,000 miles in my 99 which with my 110 mile a day commute (29,150 mi/yr) would last me 10.29 years........at .19 per pound and 10K gals it would cost a lot......water weighs 8lb per gal, bio is probably heavier. For easy math at 10lbs/gal it would be 1.90 a gal or $19,000 out of pocket. Ah...you'd have to rent the rail car for 10 years and would need a rail spur on your side yard too.....
