B20 in DE

I filled up today for the first time with B20 in DE. Paid 3.559/gal which was pretty steep considering that straight #2 was 2.735. However, I've always wanted to run bio and this was my chance so it was worth the extra bucks. I noticed a couple of things and I'm wondering if ya'll have experienced the same. The engine seemed to smooth out overall and it was considerably quieter at highway speed. I know that could do this at B50 or B100 strenght but I didn't expect it with B20.

Might want to check the prices at these locations. It seems to be a little pricey. http://www.biodiesel.org/buyingbiodi...tate.asp?st=DE

Thanks for the heads up on biodiesel.org. Hopefully I can find a pump in NJ that's close to me.
