Default Biodiesel

Has anyone ran or know someone who has run B100 in these trucks? I know dodge says B5 is the max but if the biodiesel is good fuel what would it matter?

I tried it once for Sh*ts and Giggles. Filled up with 1/2 a tank and mixed with #2. Engine ran really smooth and quiet. Never tried straight B100 tho. I didnt notice any mpg difference.

Dodge bow states you can go up to B-20. I'm going to run my 04 on B100 when I make it. JUST HAVE PLENTY OF FUEL FILTERS READY.
