Veggie Oil Conversion

Like alot of us that have diesel engines I'm starting to look into alternative fuels. I found a veggie oil conversion kit for $1,500. The stuff is $2 cheaper a gallon right now that diesel. I have a few questions though...

1. Does anyone have this conversion kit on their truck?

2. Will the conversion void the warranty on the truck?

3. How much better mileage would I gain if I was to convert my truck?

4. Any other pros/cons about these kits?

Thanks in advance for any input on this subject

There is an alternative/biofuels section below the diesel section. You should get much more information there. Difference between SVO and WVO etc.
