Crosbo,
You may be correct; what I really had in mind was the equipment such as the big Cat dozers, the big track hoes, the big hydraulic cranes, etc. A lot of this equipment is basically run by computers and I guess similar to our trucks on a smaller scale.
Oh well,

I know in Arizona.....if you are caught, they can fine you for EVERY SINGLE MILE on your vehicle if you are caught with Red Diesel! I know of a contractor that went bankrupt here in my city that got popped. I'll stick with good Ol' #2

Yepp......you basically give up your rights when you make the change to Red Diesel. You have absolutely no way of proving you used #2 Diesel before you were caught with red unless you can produce reciepts, but even then.....it could've been for ANY vehicle. Some guys chance it......I've never been checked in AZ, but I'm not willing to ever take that chance!

here,s what you do, get a 300 hundred or better home heating oil tank and put it up against your house (or shed) and run a dummy pipe in your outside wall. if you can get a little broken furnace from a friend put that in front of pipe, install. have home heating oil delivered, waalaa. home heating oil is not taxed.
