Mostly Kroger (35 gal limit ) but Sam's Club and Walmart sometimes beat everyone else.

Martins used to have a 30gal limit. They lowered it to 20. With the bonus buys some times it is possible to get free gas.

We don't have a Kroger anymore. Our Wal-Marts don't have gas. We don't have have a Sam's Club either.

You may be getting a Walmart with one soon. Both my BIL's are big wigs with Walmart and they are building those small Neighborhood Market Walmarts and some of them have fuel centers. I have 3 super walmarts within 20 min of me yet they are building 3 additional of these little market things and at least one of them I see going up has a fuel center. My BIL's say it's their new big thing so they are building a ton of them.

We have 3 Wal-Marts already. The one is small. The other 2 are super Wal-Marts.

So, Ah...IS there any news on a gas powered CUT?

I wish I could find a Lister or Petter. Sounds like EPA killed them off. There are some India clones I read about once but I don't think you can import them to US anymore.

Some have been brought into North America as "air compressors" . The workmanship and material quality of a Petteroid or Listeroid is iffy on the best of the units. A complete tear down, cleaning out of the casting sand. Clearancing and blue printing before starting is required .
My old Mrysler PH1W Petteroid was built in India when the British were still operating the factories after the production line had been relocate from Dursy England .
Real Listers and Petters are common enough in Europe and remote North American settlements that did not have electricity until late or still don't have utility grid power .

By the looks of the new Tier V regulations from our tech hating new world order EPA types is controlling CO2 . The only way to handle CO2 is either pay a pollution fine. Or burn fuel with a higher ratio of hydrogen to carbon . That would be gasoline, alcohol, LP , natural gas and eventually hydrogen.

I already told you the reasons but you don't read.
Diesel is not coming down in the US because there is more profit to me made.
The refinery upgrades and equipment were paid off between 2009 and 2011 in the standard business model. The price of ULSD is not coming down due to lower refining costs.
Other countries around the world diesel is not cheaper because it's lower cost to produce. Diesel is cheaper because the governments tax diesel lass than gasoline.

I've been seeing a lot of signs like this lately...and they all remind me how you said this would never happen. As I predicted (using those pesky things called facts) the price of diesel relative to gasoline has dropped...in many places it's slightly below the cost of gasoline. Happy Friday!

Here in my area diesel is now about $.45 cheaper than regular and just dropped a couple of cents the other day. A bit of a nice relief since we pay close to the highest gas rates in the country in my area.
