the news keeps warning of raising prices and man it hurts the pocket in my motorhome. last gasoline fill up was $170 bucks. diesel is so high i cant use it for starting fires.
It's over $4.00 here, if you buy it at the pump. In my case, I don't use enough to make sense to have a bulk tank. Lucky for me, I don't use much of it.
This will drive inflation up a notch though, because everything we buy has transportation costs built into the price.
On the wholesale market the last difference (Friday) I saw between fuel oil and regular gas was $.18 + about $.05 road tax (higher for Diesel.). In my area of MN gas is $3.499 and Diesel is about $3.949 or about $.45 difference rather than the $.23 I would expect.
$4.599 is the Lowest Price in this area. I want out of Dodge! (See my post in rural w/ a like title) Anyone have any jobs available for a great experienced hand? PM me...
Just remember all the current administration has kept domestic drilling down, kept the Canadian shale oil out of here, kept production out of Alaska, etc etc.
Remember that when you are buying $6 buck diesel this summer and higher in the fall when fuel oil kicks in.
