We test drove the Truck Monday, and it drove great! The first oil was vegetable oil from Costco, and it smelled great. The temp on the gauge that is inserted in the heated oil filter didn't go higher than 126 degrees, but the VegTherm is mounted after that and that now is heated up high. I'll start insulating some of it this weekend.

The first big batch was pumped over into a storage barrel, and I really felt the difference with hand pumping oil at below room temp oil, versus heating it up to around 90 degrees. When the oil is warm it just flows through the 5 micron filter at a quart every three turns, which makes it a breeze to pump out 30-40 gallons. Again, I make sure to test the oil for cracking or popping or small bubbles, as I don't know whether heating it up stirs up possible water content in the bottom. This seems to not be a problem. Here is a pic of some filtered and de-watered oil:
