Premium diesel?
The local Texaco changed their sign to read 'Premium Diesel'. Is there such a thing? It sounds like a cheep way to justify paying more for diesel than regular unlead!

As you read, keep in mind that it only has to conform to 2 out of 5
(Dealer's choice) of those requirements to be considered as "Premium"

I will admit I have seen and felt a difference between the 40 cetane, and 45 cetane fuels.
