Pretty much everyone in general aviation who is using leaded fuel wants to get away from it. It clogs corroborators and exhausts, requires special mitigation for spills and handling, and is generally not great.
The FAA approved and is now working to promote GAMI G100UL to replace leaded fuel in aviation, the big roadblock is passed as it is approved for all engines for which 100LL was approved for. So the phase out will go as fast as FBOs switch and GAMI can manufacture or license.
