Fuel.

[Thomas]

My second p/u Chevy 4x4 final was in the red zone and scream for fuel,so off I went to fill her up and also my diesel tank.
Reg unleaded has gone down 6 cents and is $1.53 gallon.
Diesel gone up 11 cents gallon since the first of November now paying $1.73 /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Like any hoilday fuel prices go and than slowly come back down,but diesel goes up and I yet to see the price really go back down. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

What you folks paying for fuel prices?

Thomas, I don't want to sound aloof but I don't pay much attention to the prices. There's not much I can/will do as a result so I tend to ignore it. Don't need that element of stress in my life. I pay more attention in the summer when I'm riding my bike just to know how much I'm saving by not driving at all.

We sell our gas at $1.65 full service but expecting a delivery next week and the price will go down about 4 cents. We don't sell diesel but I think the off the road diesel I get is around $1.50ish, haven't gotten any for almost three months.

Derek,
Does your come from the coast.

Kinda strange if I travel to Claremont,NH {20 miles away}gas selling between $1,47 to $1.51 /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif an they are name brands,but diesel prices are still the same as up here. /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Looks like this so call snow storm going to be a powder puff storm...but as the weather station said 50/50..oh well just got to what and see. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Have another cup its a tad chilly out there this morning...9 above. /w3tcompact/icons/blush.gif

Have a pleasant day.

We carry Citgo brand gas. It gets delivered from Albany NY. Yeh, the storm is a wash, But anytime there is a low of the New England coast, I expect anything. We have 14F here this morning not to bad. Another cup or two of java never hurt /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif.

i think we have the cheapest fuel cost in the state, maybe the U.S.; as of yesterday, there were 2 stations selling regular unleaded for $1.17 a gal. and off road deisel for $1.00...i didn't notice what the main deisel was..sorry.
its all come down 15-20 cents a gal in the last couple weeks.

Thomas ... like you I was shocked! Gas was $1.35 in Midland (Mich) yesterday ... $1.39 in Saginaw on Tuesday ... and I got a can of diesel 'cause there's more snow coming. I had to pay $1.54 (farm use, no tax) for diesel ... and the last one I got was in September at $1.05.
And here I've been complaining because I can't get a decent diesel car in this country.
To make it worse ... my propane tank was just filled ... $450 (usually around $200)
Glad they didn't get that bankrupcy bill past Slippery Bill ... these fuel prices may have many up us belly up!

Thomas -

<font color=blue>$1.65 full service</font color=blue>

Full service??? Do those still exist? /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

Can't remember the last time I saw one around here.

 

[dmccarty]

Here in the Triangle area of North Carolina I've been paying about 1.59 or 1.62 per gallon for a long time now. It was down to 1.59 this week. I think the price may have spiked a bit higher but I would have to check my log to make sure. If I travel to my JD dealer which is 30-45 minutes west of where I currently live, I can get the fuel for at least 10 cents cheaper. I'n not sure if that is because of local taxes, fuel distribution factors, or just local greed.

The cheapest I have ever paid for diesel for my 1995 truck was around .95 cents in GA.

Harv,
Full service does exist some places,but not like when we were growing up. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
Fill your tank..wash the windows..check the oil..and words of kindness.

[Bird]

Had to pay $1.239 for gas today; last tank was $1.209, but most places are a dime higher, and on road diesel is still about $1.539.

Thomas,
Fillups got
8oz glass tumblers and S&H Green stamps.

 

[Bird]

Yeah, and for about 3 years I was the guy who did the service and handed out those glasses and green stamps./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif What a racket Sperry & Hutchinson had?

Straight unleaded can be had for $1.15 a gallon at some stations around KC. Oregon used to have a requirement for full serve gas in the entire state. That wasn't full serve like the old days, just some attendant pumps it for you. I don't know if they still have that law.

 

[DaveNH]

If I remember correctly, New Jersey was the same way
wonder if they've changed?

A little late getting to this post, better late than never.
Lately I've spent so much time in the truck I haven't even noticed prices on unleaded.
The Fina where I normally fill my truck, has diesel for $1.45. Truck stops East of San Antonio on IH 10 are close to that. At one location where a Trans America and a Flying J are across the highway from each other, they sometimes battle and I've seen it go down to $1.37. An Exxon has it for $1.48 and will deduct 10 cents/gal if you pay cash.
