Shell Premium Diesel is the highest-quality diesel fuel available in my area, by far. I don't know if it officially meets the ULSD standards yet, but it's definitely getting close.

I imagine those stickers will be a common sight in the near future. And after June 30th we'll be avoiding fuel pumps that don't have those stickers.

did you notice if they increased their price for the ULSD, over the other stations in your area?

it was $2.759 for the ulsd, which is on the low end of the area pricing. the main competition is from wally-murphy and they are amoung the two lowest fuel stations in my area.

edit: the wallyworld diesel is 6 cents less per gallon ($2.699 vs $2.759, why do they still put that stupid .9 cents on the end anyways). i would rather run the ulsd.

i checked this this link from marzot's post:

the label color suggestion is green, not red like on the pump i filled up at.
