Diesel 4.15 PG today... My guess that this time next year its sub 3.00.. I remember back in 2018/2019.. Mass was pushing hard to raise the fuel tax because gas was sub 2.00 PG and it was such a great time to do it,.. because they could add .25PG and the consumer wouldn't really notice it...

Diesel is currently $2.72/gal here. Crude oil futures are showing a slight drop through the end of next year, so I don't think there will be a big drop in prices. A $10 per barrel change equates to a $0.25 per gallon change at the pump. Any change in federal policy will take longer than that to show up in the market. Since only 20% of domestic production comes from federal lands, it also has a smaller impact on price.

$5.50 this morning SF Bay Area.

Several of the tree service friends are ditching diesel due to the restrictions faced… both expense for vehicles and regulation for chippers.

$3.65 in the communist, I mean commonwealth of PA.
About $3 in DE

I can’t wait for the prices to fall. Even fitty-cent would be a big help to make up for the $4-$5 years.

About $5.95 per gal on what we call plain diesel over here.

For the premium diesel, it's about $7.40.

I bought regular gas yesterday for $2.58 and saw diesel for $2.99. I don’t even look at premium gas prices but it is typically 0.60-0.80 cents higher than regular gas.

Nice thing here (Michigan) is, ORD is not road taxed so it's usually 30-40 cents per gallon less than on road diesel.

I do pay about 15 cents extra per gallon delivery charge from my supplier however (for the convenience of having a bulk tank). Still cheaper than pump on road diesel which has no dye in it as off road is colored red and my fuel supplier does provide me with an EPA certified bulk tank included in the delivery price and that includes a hand pump and nozzle for filling the tractors.

My bulk tank is skid mounted with a built in containment berm as well.

The cost of diesel for me is a write off anyway and goes against the farm income as an operating deduction, consequently, the cost per gallon is not relevant anyway. The more it costs, the larger the offset.

My diesel farm pickup gets pump diesel but that is also a deduction as an expense but I do have to keep records and receipts for it.

Nice thing about being a working farm and registered with the state as a bona fide business is, just about everything is a tax offset, including the tractors and related equipment. Even my lube oil, filters and incurred maintenance is an offset why I buy my fluids in bulk and have them delivered to the farm.

Never had an issue with any of it and I have a good accountant as well.

I'd sure like to know where the road tax funds go because here in Michigan, the roads flat suck and always have. Pot hole city, summer and winter makes no difference.

Me thinks a lot of it goes in some politician's pocket.
