Diesel prices in your area?

[Looking4new]

$1.079/Litre ($4.078/US gallon) regular gas. 1.229/Litre ($4.645/US gallon) in South River, ON today.
I paid $1.26/L for Shell V-Power (high test).

I cannot believe that we in Ontario her paying twice what the Americans are paying just next door, and that we haven't started a revolution!

In NB diesel is 115.9 Canadian dollars per liter, or 5.2155 canadian per imperial gallon, which is 3.85/4.5 us gals..math shows that is 4.433 US per us gallon. Canada now has price controls on fuel. (for tax reasons) We sell Canadian crude to the US for 48 a bbl (at last price posted on the stock exchange). A bbl is 54 us gallons and that yields 64 gals us diesel per bbl, or about 40.cents US per us gallon. Which by the way, is less than it costs to produce oil from the alberta tar sands, so the oil business in Fort Mc Murry t is hurting and paying no royalties at the moment Those royalties are a big chunk of Canadian federal revenues. That is why our Canadian dollar is so low right now..and that, in turn affects Canada Us Trade balances. It makes no sense, but then neither does much else in international economics.. Don't ask me why, ask the Russians and the US Congress..and the Saudis.

:duh:

I started this thread back in early December 2014 as diesel prices were starting to fall. I started it because I thought it would be interesting to see what I am paying for fuel, compared to others around the country and around the world.

I say it has been interesting indeed. I have learned that generally, I pay less than most others around the world. My guess is that it's mostly because of my location here in South Louisiana.

Wednesday, I paid $2.799 at a local truck stop, and Thursday, I paid $2.459 at a convenience store across the street. I paid $0.34 more at the truck stop, because at the time I had a trailer hooked up and could not get in and out of the convenience store.

I find it interesting too, that you can find such a big difference in prices only a few hundred feet apart.

Paid 2.52 today. That's the lowest price I've seen around me.. I see truck stops offering a lower price for diesel if you pay cash,and a higher price for credit...
Gasoline seems to be the same price cash or credit ..

Don't know why it makes a difference with diesel, if you use credit and there is no difference using credit with gasoline

As a guess... big trucks usually only pay by CC..CC companies charge a couple cents on the dollar.. that s a lot on slip tank full of diesel. Fuel stops lose money on CC sales.
