The fact that the diesel typically can go 500-600 miles between fill-ups alleviates that concern somewhat. With the popularity of diesel pick-ups for many years, diesel is actually pretty easy to find. I've got 27,000 miles on mine, driving all over the Midwest and West, and only had a problem once, and that was only because I wanted a name-brand diesel fuel rather than using a small, independent generic station.
P.S. While far from 100% accuracy, the BMW Nav system can search for stations with diesel along your programmed route, or near your current location.
