I paid 3.71 for diesel a week ago, with my 60+ gallon tank I haven't filled since and I'm not 100% on the price now. Either way, its depressing as he!! what fuel costs right now!

Good Fuel: 3.95
IDK Fuel: 3.89
The scary part is that the IDK (I Don't Know) fuel is usually 30-50 cents cheaper. WTF!

Where the heck did you get all that! I would imagine it's getting harder and harder to come by.

Around Sacramento, CA it varies a lot but it'll average around $3.70-$3.75

This is just crazy seeing the differance in pricing throughout the country. I still think if the trucking industry which includes farmers and ranchers and the airlines would just shut down for one week Ol' Uncle Sam would wake up and diesel prices would come down.

It will probably never happen but I think that it would work. Just think, if all trucking just came to a screeching halt.

I have a dream, good night.

Pick up at 4 mcdonalds every 2 weeks for a long time now, 350-450 gal a trip. Had a 30gal batch reactor and it was just too small and involved too much labor. I designed and built this 300gal batch and integrated plc controls into it to try and get away from babysitting it. Local tech college has it right now finishing up the programming, gonna run a test batch thursday. Have a centrifuge to prep (dewater) oil after filtering and going to incorperate a dry wash to avoid dicking around with wet washing and then drying it. Hoping once we get it going 100% i can get 600+ gal of bd made a day. Once we do get it going we'll go after more oil. big oil companies you can shove it up your AZZ! lol
