  One thing I noticed, I can only verify a single stop though, has to do with
performance and mileage.  Dad's TD pickup primarily is used on the farm
so it often has "farm fuel" in it.  I used it for a trip one time and after
filling
it at an AM/PM (Arco) in Aberdeen, WA, I had MUCH less power and lower
mileage.  I didn't notice a loss in power with the Passat on our trip but I
did get the worst mileage he's ever gotten on it, about 40mpg mostly.
He usually gets around 48 unless it's not running right.  Scott might
have an interesting fact or two to present.  He happens to have
actually tested a couple Cetane ratings.  :)  :(
