For one if you run it and get dipped its a HUGE fine. To it stains the inside of the tanke so if when you take it in and the dealer see's that. you screwed for warrienty work.

Theres no chemical difference except the red dye they add to farm diesel so the feds can bust you for running it on the road.
You don't pay federal tax when you buy farm diesel and if you get caught with it in your tank, you'll wish you hadn't done that after the fines all get added up.

I have never been dipped in several years. I really don't think it will void your warranty since there is no difference in the fuel.

Only been dipped once when I hauled a load to the livestock auction yard. Have not been dipped again, almost 7 years now. Knock on wood........however I have nothing to hide. Back home if you get caught running dyed fuel it ends up between $2K-$7K. Not worth it to me.
