Message:		That has been a hot topic of debate over on the TDR. It was so nice when they changed it, the oil changes started costing me $10 more. A friend of mine who works in auto parts and the trucking business has said he has seen a lot of diesel engines ruined over ULSD and the new engine oil. My personal experience with the USLD is that it is garbage. Might as well poored water in the tank. Fuel mileage went down, price went up, engine got louder and for the first time in the 6 years I owned that truck, it started gelling. I had that issue all winter last year....even with additive. I think this is like unleaded gas, the diesel engines are going to have to catch up to the new fuel and oils on the market. Now I remember one of the many reasons I sold that truck. Gary
