just learn to keep your mouth shut.
Don't brag to friends, don't let the oil delivery truck see a diesel Benz and no tractors in sight, and don't attempt to fuel up at a gas station that sells offroad.
ULSD will suck, but you only have about 2 years until all diesel, including off road, must be ULSD.
Even before that, oil distributors may just dye the ULSD red for off road sales, because they may not have enough tanks to get so many different types of fuel, trucks for delivery, etc.
Look at your state code for the fines. Decide for yourself. You may want to put some kind of screen in line in the filler neck to make it impossible for your tank to be "dipped" roadside. They will struggle, fuss, cry, and try, then just send you on your way.

Off-road fuel is exactly the same as the on-road fuel. The only differences are 500ppm sulfur (until 2009), red dye, and no road tax.
Your engine will run no different on it, only your wallet will be able to tell the difference.
