Here in Sidney, NE the State Patrol had two vehicles stopping pickups right and left just to dip them...I guess I will run clear from now on. I was at the barber shop the other day talking to a local statey and he said they currently have no way to tell if someone is running biofuel, but that they are trying to figure out a way to catch those guys as well. Anyone in Nebraska hear any different?

How is the quality of the fuel in mexico? I used to work with a guy who would take car from here down there for his family. He said the gas down there was filthy dirty, so he would always take 15 or so new fuel filters with him.

i will not buy gas there but the diesel is as clean or cleaner than ours because it is actually processed there it goes from the refineries here to more refineries there and gets filtered and what not before coming back over here my truck has a 2nd fuel filter on it so i dont worry about dirty fuel most of the time unless i can see the dirt and stuff in it clearly
