  1. Off road is the way to go. No dies. A dollar a gallon less. Rolls the dice for fucks sake. If you’re rural, repelling is easy. NE Appalachia.

    1. I don’t own any diesel vehicles myself, but know guys who do, and keep a tank of off road diesel on their property. They have legit cause for it too, owning backhoes, skid loaders and big towable gensets. But you can bet your ass they’re running the off road in their trucks as well, at least part of the time. The odds of getting nicked are pretty slim. And I bet one could find an inert red dye to add to the fuel tank, if they were really concerned about getting busted. Just another small, quiet way of poking a finger in the system’s eye.

      1. They dye our off road diesel red out here I would think it’s the same everywhere lot harder to get the dye out…

        1. Yep. Red dye is used in marine ultra low sulfur diesel. The only other place I’ve seen is Italy, which uses green dye. It does not come out even when the fuel is put through a centrifuge to purify it (removes water and micro particles of dirt/carbon).

        2. You’re right. I had that backwards. Anyway, unless one is driving a big rig or large commercial vehicle, I find it doubtful that spot checks of the contents of the tank are being done. Ive not heard of it happening in my AO, others may vary. Since the filler neck on most conventional pickups is designed to prevent syphoning, it’s that much harder to do a field check, unless one taps off at the pressure test port on the injector rail.

  2. Explosions are also sometimes staged and orchestrated by TPTB to make things worse.
