where in there is helping our enviornment or our economy?
Interesting comment about the drop in economy. with ULSD I only see 1-2MPG drop to my 6.4 from my 7.3 when both used ULSD.

What is even more troubling about ULSD is that it makes a large portion of the oil that is high in sulpher not easily refined for this new fuel spec. Much of this is Mid-East oil which now doesn't work so well. Less raw supply which means prices go up.
