Offroad diesel

[Cummins12V98]

I save all my receipts for the gas that goes into my Boat and file a claim every fall.

Good to know.. I never thought about all that gas I buy for my equipment, generators, boat, and tractors

WA state you can actually claim X amount of gallons based on the type of truck... Say it is a cement mixer they allow X % to be claimed in a refund, but a dump truck would be a much smaller X amount so it's based on type of truck so even an on road truck can still claim some tax benifits. Generators, Lanwnmowers, weedeaters, ETC can claim it as well in the state.. say for a landscaper with gas powered items or you can just buy red fuel diesel say for your tractor.

So if you have a reason you could gain the same benefit without the big risk if dipped.

My local dealer has confirmed it's the same fuel they add the dye when they dump it in the tank in the ground and ran plenty in equipment on it.

Watched - caught a RV owner running -filling up his tank, claimed it was for his diesel generator... didn't seem to care but not something I would want to be caught doing on the road. If I had a farm I would for sure run it while on the farm.

I did speak to 1 guy who was caught and his fine was 10x the amount of the tax rate on every gallon he had in storage ability and then they based it on a few years worth... not a good day for him.
