As far as WMO goes I can say this, I have a uncle who worked for Chevron down in California(not a dealer he actually worked for the corporation) and he once said that they sold used motor oil to shipping companies to burn in their ocean vessels. This was 10+ years ago and they had been doing this for a while. I don't know if they refined it in some way but no one seemed worried about it ruining the motors.

I don't think you'll find many people here that will "flame" you 
It's your truck, your $$$$, and your decision. I never have a problem with others using whatever they want to.
The only time I have a problem is when somebody PROMOTES the use of WMO or UNHEATED WVO. Somebody sometime will try it and ruin an expensive engine.
Yes, I promote the use of Biodiesel. I do this from experience (4 years) and the fact that I can present study after study that will show the use of QUALITY MADE Biodiesel will not harm an engine.

Got about 50 miles on the heavier concentration. This makes somewhere around 460 miles total on wmo mix. Truck warms up faster. Engine is quieter, less knock. Still about the same smoke, maybe a little more. I don't think there is any more or less power, feels the same. This is at somewhere between 50 and 60 percent wmo. I'll burn this tank, next one will be 60-70 percent. Still no issues.
