    What is fuel costing you?

    [ I'm told you are charged the federal and state tax from a zero odometer to your current odometer reading, PLUS the federal and state fines. They MAY let you keep your truck if they don't think you're a flagrant violator. YIKES!!!:eek: Seems hardly worth the effort. A dollar or two a...

    Seperation?

    I have found a few stations around me that carry b11 for the same as ulsd or even a couple of cents cheaper. I was once told that if bio sat for any length of time that it would seperate. Is this true or an old wives tale? Does the percantage of bio matter with this "theory". It would be...
