oregon mandates at least B5 and has for years regarless of what a pump sticker may say. B20 is exempt from road tax. I've run B5 or B20 in my last truck since new unless I couldn't find it.

now B20 is less than $2.00 gallon in many places.
If you want to come through oregon and not get any bio you better have a very big aux tank filled before you cross the border cause you won't find any non bio on road diesel and I'd guess that the off road is at least B5 as well in virtually all cases.
