Bend, Oregon

We met Kevin in Bend, after driving all day on the purchased 7 cubies from Reno, even with the 1 hour plus diversion to Pyramid Lake, we made it just in time before the tank ran empty. He had plenty of oil as well and we compensated him for his efforts and asked for the closest place to wild camp, or dry camp in the area, so we could visit my wife's favourite Mexican restaurant.

He has done a bunch of conversions and has sold some of his cars. He estimated that there are perhaps 15 SVO grease cars in the Bend area, which is a lot, as Bend is a fairly small town, 70.000 people, and there are a bunch of biodiesel folks. They have a Co-op and are making biodiesel for 2.99 a gallon if I recall correctly..
