things are a little different than in maine but yes about 50 cents is right. "coinsidentally" it happens to even out the odds between diesel and gas. the tax "coincidentally" this tax went into effect right when "gas prices" started to sky rocket. making it hard to justify buying diesel rather than gas. diesel in my opinion is like firewood to heat your home...it is more hard work and maintenance but in the vary long run if you dont count self labor, cost favors the diesel and firewood. I appologize for the cospiracy theory on the diesel price jump and all but i know some people agree with me.

 

I agree with you I still have a v-10 and burn heating oil, LOL The upfront costs to switch for me just aren't worth it yet, LOL
