i liken it to 1975 when they put coverters in the cars.


did the HP #'s come down? a little.


did the performance come down? H3LL YA!

 

It sure sounds like its going that way Killa

 

The article states that the new diesel fuel will start flowing through pipelines June 1. My local gas station just increased their diesel from $2.94 to $3.19 overnight. I asked what the reason for the jump was. The owner stated that about $.05 was due to N. Korea and its instability and the other $.20 was due to the new ULSD diesel fuel. We all knew it would be more expensive, now we know how much.

 

As far as I'm concerned, that $.05 can be jammed where the sun don't shine. If I built a missile and "threatened" to launch it, would that make gas jump .05-.10 a gallon? Come on folks...

Anyways..... When do all the gas stations have to have ULSD?
