Renewable diesel hits the pumps at Bend gas station
video from KTVZ TV
I don't own a diesel vehicle, but this story on tonight's local TV news is kinda interesting. According to the story, this is the first place in Oregon to sell "renewable diesel" to the public. Renewable diesel (aka, "green diesel") is different than biodiesel.
Not surprising that this gas station is the first (in Bend, at least) to have this product. They sell other non-standard vehicle fuels.
(The new "green diesel" isn't yet shown on their price board.)

We've had that for some time now. https://propelfuels....s?active=diesel
I don't know if the hype is true or not but I try and fill up with it before I head up the hill. Its competitively priced, maybe five cents more than regular diesel.

OK I have seen this station at my daughters house in Oakland.
I've walked past it for many years now.Haven't tried it as I fill
up at home before our drive there.

This thread started in 2012 but is still “current” by definition? Kinda like the word “modern”.
I generally do not let gas prices hinder a road trip. I used to shop for good gas prices but not anymore. I mostly look for clean and convenient gas stations.

I think that's a good way to view it.
You could drive all over town spending
time and fuel just to save a few cents.
Gotta have it but will watch out for the stations that
want to take advantage of the gas issue.

$4.379 yesterday at my favorite Chevron. I’m driving the MoHo north to Carmichael tomorrow for my cousin’s 65th and I've been checking Pilot/Flying J prices along the 99/I-5 corridor. At best I get 8mpg so it definitely matters.

8mpg! Ouch! our F350 4x4 Tiger (10,000+ lbs loaded) with a 7.3L gasser averages between12 and 13. I see by your post you have a stock Chevy 2500 with just a shell. That doesn't seem right. Am I missing something?
