Whats up with the .15 cent increase? Thats such BS I cant begin to tell you. Who in the long run is going to pay. Lets think about it us.Every thing we guy is going to be increased. Who buys the most in ct. I would be truckers. All of that will be passed on to us. There not going to abosrb the .15 cents. What is our goverment thinking not obnly in this state up over the srest of the us. I was told the reason for the increase was to bring the price up to regular gas. the such bs diesel costs less to make why should it cost the same. Two months ago how much more was diesel than gas a gallon. Classic.

I heard you dont want to get caught running it in your truck. Im not up for dealing with a 10000 dollar fine. Im not worried about paying the .15 cents gallon in my truck. Its all the other stuff i buy in life is going to sufer from its increase. Oh well.Thats connecticut and that life I guess.

I was under the impression you were using it in a boat....

Although..... I have run it in my truck in the past.

The receipt from my oil dealer stated it was "un-dyed diesel fuel".
I don't drive enough to make it worth the trouble now

Same here. Im not worried about the boat. The tax on diesel we get back for the boat. All the the place where we get diesl from the pump said the other day non tax diesel.

You only get a portion of the tax back. They give you the road tax back but more then 50% is of other taxes....

I ran heating oil for 3 or 4 years straight. No additives, no problems....
