On my last trip (1200 miles), I paid between $1.94 and $2.15.  Just two 
weeks before that I went to another ride, this one probably only 900 miles 
round trip and diesel was $1.76 a gallon on the road, and $1.69 locally, 
but I saw it at $2.39 in some spots (which is even higher now).  There were 
stations where it is upwards of .30 to .80 a gallon more depending upon 
where you are at.  I would like to add an additional fuel tank, at least 
another 40 gallons that way when I fill up, I can put in 80 or more gallons 
and if I save .30 a gallon each time that would be $24 on nearly every trip 
I take.  In some cases it might as much as .50 a gallon savings so that 
would be $40.00.   If anybody knows of a good deal on an auxiliary diesel 
fuel tank please let me know!  I figure that the additional weight won't 
matter, the truck seems to get the same mileage whether or not I am hauling 
1 or 2 horses or 20 or 200 gallons of water.  I'd also like to not have to 
worry about finding a fair price on diesel on a trip every 400 miles or 
so.  When I travel by myself I seldom like to stop unless absolutely 
necessary.
