I completely agree. I look for diesel where I know there is a good turnover of fuel.

I completely agree. I always buy diesel where I know here is a good turnover. Saving a few bucks and having to change a filter, or worse, get towed is not worth it.

The places I go have great turnover on diesel. They dont have 100 or 200K gallons of storage, but they always have fresh fuel.

The only folks I have met that had fuel filters clogging from algae (et al) had filled up at mom-and-pop stations in fringe locations. I simply choose wisely and do not pay premium prices out of fear.

Here in Benson, I filled up at Loves. The truck lanes were $3.79. The front pumps had a sign with an arrow that said "RV fueling" and lots of room, AND the diesel price was $3.62 there. That is $17 per 100 gallons at the same station!
