I live in rural Wyoming, I have never once seen a place that sells bio. I'm guessing it was a load of #1 but even running 1# all winter it wasn't that bad.
I've driven diesels for essentially my entire adult life, and after spending ~5k on a new fuel system a couple years ago on my F250 because of poor quality fuel, I've only ever got diesel at the most expensive place in town, which is Shell. I was in a trip a few weeks ago and had to get diesel...

I've listened to bluetooth headphones while driving for my sleeping passengers' sake and when I linked my phone to the headphones it still displayed what I was listening to on the dash and I could use the steering wheel buttons to skip songs. Just have the headphones set as your primary source.
