Certified, no additives. I fueled up way early because warm temps are coming, and fuel prices are very low. This is again the lowest price I have ever paid for diesel since buying this car. RUG today is $1.69

Certified. No additives. I filled a little early because the coldest temps of this, so-far very mild, winter are due next week. This is also the lowest price per gallon I have ever paid for diesel fuel while owning this car. REG is at $1.99 today.

Certified. 2.75 oz PSW (first additive in a couple of months). I could have stretched this tank farther, but it is about 60 degrees today, and I think tomorrow night is much cooler. Did a little more short-trip driving, and colder mornings, and let it idle through a DPF regen.

Certified. 3 oz Amsoil Diesel Concentrate. I had some excellent mpg drives in both directions to work (several 50+ going to work). One heavy rain drive home and some A/C drives, but this was an amazing fuelly tank considering it was just local driving.

Certified. 3 oz Amsoil. Did some wasteful short around town stuff, and got stuck in one interstate traffic-jam. Lots of rain, and some of it heavy, so I hope the Certified tanks have good caps.

Certified. I was in the neighborhood, and since we are again supposed to have a sudden drop in temperature in two days, and today was warm enough to wear a t-shirt..., and I added 1 oz of PSWhite.

Certified. 2 oz PSWhite. I have a half full tank, and it is almost 70 degrees with humidity today, and in two days temperature goes back to mid 20's with high in mid 30's, and I was near the Certified station, so again I will avoid contributing to a condensation environment in my fuel tank.

Certified. Added 4 oz PSWhite. This is the first additive I have added in 3 months. Price of RUL is about $2.29. We are finally getting a change in the winter weather with warming temps, so I added this PSWhite to help diffuse any water in my fuel tank, and I fueled now because heavy rain is expected tomorrow.

Feb 27 2015
Certified. Still no additives. February has been cold, so again I will fill a little early (this time to avoid airspace when temps climb to 40 with rain early next week). Reg unleaded has stayed around $2.35. This is the worst mpg tank ever, but it has been cold and a lot of my driving has been family neighborhood stuff.

Feb 13 2015
Certified. No additives. Weather has been more cold, and very cold weather is coming, so I filled up early. Price of reg unleaded has come back up to about $2.29, so the early season disparity between diesel and gas seems more typical.

Certified on Harmon. No additives again. Price of diesel fuel dipped finally today while price of unleaded gasoline has been as low as $1.77 during the past few weeks. Diesel has been no lower than $3.59 during this spell of rapidly falling gas prices. Weather has not been that cold since Thanksgiving and no snow over the past 30 days, but we had 4" of powder snow last night.

Dec 1 2014
Certified. No additives because unusually cold temperatures arrived very suddenly back in mid-November, so diesel suppliers have certainly juiced their fuels with lots of anti-gel additives. A few of the drives to work got me less than 38mpg, and there have also been lots of short trips on this tank.
