      Anecdotally, ‘off road’ diesel (the purple stuff in the US) is not a low sulphur on-road fuel and its performance is much better in pick em ups and brodozers versus pump diesel. Its pollution potential is also higher than low sulfur fuel.

      Running off road diesel is an unspoken thing. I’m in a town now but out in the sticks most guys I know run their on road trucks on off-road fuel. I have friends who farm and if I wanted they’d sell me off-road fuel for my personal use, if I still had my diesel. With the coming change of no longer having to perform annual vehicle inspection, it’s going to be even worse.

    If you’re not carbrained, the EPA has gone after a number of companies that offered enhancements to diesel trucks. This person is probably lamenting not being able to blow clouds of black smoke at Priuses.

      I just saw an article about a couple in Washington state who own a mechanic shop that bypassed diesel emissions systems on 375 customer's trucks. The increased emissions was the equivalent of adding 127,000 diesel trucks to the road and they made $500,000 in the process.

      Their punishment for violating the Clean Air Act? A $20,000 fine and a few months of house arrest.

      That shop is a performance diesel shop. That is probably exactly what their sentiment is. They do exhaust deletes, tunes, etc.
