[hammersley]

Oh do I love this - time to think about doing something else... ... ... . I love this truck but can't stand to put more $$$ into both these oil thieves AND the Arabs pockets... ... .

Recall the movie Back to the Future when Doc inserts a beer can and banana peel into the Mr Fusion!?

I paid $2. 91 the other day.

 

[Hoefler]

I did some figuring the other day, even with my pathetic mileage of 10 - 11 mpg. Gas would have to be over $1. 00 more per gallon ( figuring the gasser was getting 7 mpg with the same load ) to make it economical. Down side, less power to pull the hills Upside, save the $6,000 for the privilege to buy diesel. Just a thought.

Mine costs $2. 25/of course I pull it out of the home heating oil thak, it's pink and if the boys catch me I'm in deep do do. It's criminal that we are paying more than regular gas and in some cases more than high (ha!) test for a lesser refined fuel. Basically oil.

It's good old Uncle Sam and the rest of the boys in the big business boys club puttin it to the poor working man as usual. "The great American way". God Bless America!

We actually get more oil from Canadians, Commies in Venezuela, and the U. S. than from the terrorists in the Middle East. It would be nice if bought none from them, of course.



I wish someone would sell biodiesel in my area.

 

[RGardner]

Funny how diesel prices zoomed up with the price of oil, but now that we are back down about $5 per barrel, diesel stay put. 35 cents difference between regular and diesel here.

 

[JLabossiere]

You should pay the price we have to in Canada. Cheap fuel here is $3. 93 a U. S gallon and then it get higher to $4. 46 a gallon in some places. And to think that we supply our selves with the oil and the cousins to the south. I going to go south to get my fuel.

 

[WDixon27]

$2. 899 as of yesterday

 

[lethal injection]

Do you have any bio diesel dealers around you? I paid 2. 90 for b100 the other day. I am also looking for some locals that would like to start a processor up on the side and split the costs.

 

[RGardner]

Best price still 3. 15 here. Most 3. 20 - 3. 25

 

[desertbull]

Just completed a 9-day 6,500 mile trip across the nation --- ranged from $2. 67 to $3. 49 a gallon...



I cringed each time I rolled into the truck stop... :{

 

[Nate]

Cheapest here is 3. 53. I drive to work (20 miles a day) run errands... try to pool them together... or I just walk and that's about it. I can't afford much else.

 

[Joe Mc]

I've heard that if you use biodiesel @ 20% or more your VP, LP and hoses are not suited for it and will soon fail? Just what I heard. I know for sure that Vulcan is making all the hoses for their "Draw Straw" Bio-diesel compatable

 

[BarryG]

Here in town seems 3. 29 to 3. 49 is the range. Went to Utah over the weekend pretty much on I-70 the whole way and on the way saw prices between 3. 35 and 3. 63.

 

[KCJackson]

Normally, diesel doesn't rise here until October (for winter mix), but ULSD must be in place by Oct 1, so you're seeing that rise right now - all diesel fuel must be ULSD by that date, so you are running on a mixture of LSD and ULSD right now if not all ULSD, depending on how quickly your local station turns its fuel over.



Paid $2. 869 at my usual Sunoco station on Friday... $90. 00 for 31. 34 gallons.

 

[RGardner]

Cheap at $2. 869 same fill up here would have been $99!

 

[COBRAJET]

This will make you guys sick. I paid a 2. 59... YES 2. 59 in Johnson City, Texas... . about 50 miles North of San Antonio on 281. I saw it for 2. 75 all along the way. It is around 2. 80 in Fort Worth.

 

[BDeMartile]

[Regcabguy]

I'm in San Diego,ditto here on the prices. Just returned from Baja and got 1/2 a tank for 270 pesos or about $2. 50 a gallon. Lotsa sulfer down there. I still threw in the P. S. though. Solid development between Tijuana and Ensenada. Place has sure changed. :{
