I am finding it in more places as Government Mandates kick in. The biggest problem is if you haven't ben using it, it brakes loose all the gunk in your tank and will tend to clog filters till it cleans your system.
The hiest level I have run into was in Missoula Montana. I stopped because it was $3.65 on the signboard (cheap at the time) but when I got to the pump they had 4 types of diesel on the pump. 50/50 bio, red, #1 and regular #2. The #2 was $4.55. I only bought 50 gal of the #2 just so I could get down the road. I didn't want to try the 50/50 on the road. Besides Cummins does not recommend over 20%.

IN FACT: Cummins reccomends only 5% Bio Fuel per ASTM D975 as it clearly states in my 2016 owners manual.
20% is only OK on those trucks equipped with the OPTIONAL B20 capability package and requires shortened maintenance schedules.
