Yes! The same here. No regular CC's accepted at the pumps, but to get the keycard was simple, and pay as you go or get monthly stmt. I believe that they do accept a CC at the front desk when paying any time.

No cc card readers at any of the pumps, including gasoline and on road diesel, or just at an isolated off road pump?

I would watch out anyone trying to sell you biodiesel. I personally don’t have any experience or knowledge about it but I know that all of my equipment runs fine on the real deal. Have never seen any issues from the red dye.

I don’t see pure diesel for sale around here at the pumps, it all has some amount of bio in it. It has some vague sticker on the pumps saying it contains between 5% and 20%. I think as a rule it B5 but you don’t know. I’ve burned a lot of it with no problems except in the winter. If I blend in some kerosene it’s not a problem then either.
My problem is the local place that sells off-road diesel won’t fill 5 gallon cans. They are set up for pumping larger quantities in to bigger tanks. The only way I can get it is if my buddy gets me some when he fills the tank in my truck. I’ve got 20 gallons now which will get me to next spring.

At the peak of haying season, I’ll go through 50-100 gallons per day, and that’s nothing compared to huge farming operations.
Red dyed fuel makes sense for me saving .75/gallon.
For those of you running a compact tractor and just a few gallons a day, it doesn’t make sense IF you have to drive more than a few miles to get it.
You’ll lose all your savings driving in your truck just to get it.

Bio diesel gets a bad rap because it is so easy to get a bad batch and depending greatly on the facility making it the quality can very tremendously. When it first came out it was blamed for plugging fuel filters, which it did because it was cleaning out the tanks and fuel systems. It ran good and had better lubricity then normal diesel. However with any moisture present the biologics really liked the bio diesel.

Red diesel makes sense to me, it is available same place I get my gasoline and same style pump and its $0.54 a gallon cheaper than road diesel... And I refuse to donate that $0.54 a gallon to state of california by using road diesel off road...

Red fuel makes even more sense if you burn it for heat and get it delivered.
Around here, it's usually 25 to 50 cents / gal less than ORD at the local gas stations.
