Yes, of course it concerns me but there is no getting around it. I drive trucks and trucks need fuel. Next!

No, there's no evidence that proves prolonged exposure to fossil fuels causes cancer. Besides, I like the smell of diesel.

Default Your poll is rigged!

Eat right

Stay fit

Die anyway!

ultra low sulfer diesel is junk!

I was told that junk kills your motor due to the lack of lube.
And when it kills your truck it is more of a danger.
Then again what do I know.

From the choices listed it sounds like someone's trying to stir the pot. Reminds me of a tree hugger I know.

That's so very true. Sarcastic or not that is indeed exactly what colognes and perfumes are made out of. The chemicals put into such "beauty" products are in fact some of the same chemicals that are going into the gas tank. They both are petrochemical derivatives. Colognes are made by mixing hundreds and sometimes thousands of chemicals almost exclusively synthetic and petrochemical derived. I personally don't wear the stuff myself but if other people choose to take the risk it's up to them. It's not very pleasant to have to be around someone that bathes in the stuff though.

You smell so good you're literally killing your girlfriend. Meh! I guess all that matters is she thinks you smell nice. Personally I choose to not wear cologne or under arm deodorant that is full of harmful chemicals. I buy deodorant that omits such ingredients.

I hope you don't eat food in the truckstops, drink sodas (Coke, Pepsi, etc), wash your hands with soap, shampoo your hair, etc etc etc...

ANYTHING can cause cancer, including water.
