I agree but I travel alot so I can't always hit the same fuel stations. After what I went thru last year I now always add some anti-gel to my fuel in cold weather. This stuff also contains some lubricant for the injection pump since we now that this ULSD. Is this a valid concern? Do I need to worry about using this ULSD in an older car?
