Like most have said, buy fuel at truck stops as they have blended fuel and you'll have less of a chance of jelling up. As an added pre-caution, add some anti-gel while fueling just to be safe. Some may argue that's not necessary, but it gives you piece of mind. If your coming up from a southern state to northern states in the winter, ADD anti gel when you fill up down south BEFORE you come up and every time thereafter until you get back home. Bring along an extra fuel filter or 2 just in case. Living in CNY, I buy my fuel at same place all the time. Treat it as well. Carry extra filter, 9-1-1 additive, just in case. Bought a 4-5 qt drain pan w/ cover that fits behind the seat just in case I have to do a emergency filter change while on the road. Come to think of it, I may want to add a small tarp/piece of plastic to lay on instead of directly on the snow.
