“The development of the Canadian on-highway DEF supply network has picked up pace during the final quarter of 2012, with several new truck stop brands adding bulk facilities,” said Christopher Goodfellow, North American emissions analyst with Integer Research, publisher of DEF Tracker. “In total, 798 truck stops offer DEF at the pump across North American, demonstrating a phenomenal level of support for the product.”
