Doesn't a lot of farm equipment actually run on No. 1 diesel? It is
exempt from fuel taxes, or used to be?

I think in past times truckers used to be caught with tanks full of No.
1 Diesel, to avoid the fuel taxes. If I remember correctly, the fines
were so steep a trucker could lose his rig in fines and court costs!

But, things may have changed by now ...
