They don't sell that anymore. There is Low Sulfur Diesel (less than 500ppm Sulfur) and Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (less than 15ppm Sulfur).

If your vehicle says "ultra low sulfur diesel required" you have a diesel particulate filter. (You might also have a Selective Catalytic Reduction reactor or an Advanced EGR system if you have a 2010-on truck, but if so you also have a DPF.) You can run LSD in your engine occasionally--like if you need some fuel because you're about out of gas and there's nothing else around--but running LSD all the time in a newer truck will ruin the diesel particulate filter and they are not cheap.
