| We get whatever is on sale or cheapest. We have used Blue DEF, Prestone, Valvoline. Can't tell any difference. We buy by the drum from Napa. |

| "Blue DEF" for me. Used to buy the drums, now into totes, from NAPA. Goes on sale about every other month. When I bought our electric pump I chose this brand because of the way the container is sealed from contamination. |

| The label on our 55 gallon drums says "TerraCair", our oil jobber refills them on an exchange basis. Last time I checked it was $78.00 for a drum plus deposit. Update, just took delivery of an exchange 55 drum of DEF, price $75.08 |
Why yes, the ORIGinal CHARGER is a Fastback |

| Rugged brand from Parts Plus. I'm still only with a 55 gallon drum- no need for a tote yet. |

| Our's says Blue DEF or something like that. We get ours from our Oil supplier who does an excellent job. Always ready to jump when we need anything. We have jokers coming in the shop all the time wanting to get us a "good deal" on DEF that we always have to run off. Not worth saving $2.00 to get rid of a trusted, consistent vendor. |

| Unlike oil, I think DEF is the same formula where ever you go, so it would be a matter of who has the freshest DEF at a competitive price for your area. |
