For the first time in a long time, diesel here is cheaper than gas. Diesel is at $3.679 and gas is at $3.999 and supposedly it's gonna go up to $4.099 tonight! Really lovin the 7.3 now!

Enjoy next month to the fullest. We get 5 weekends in June and that doesn't happen too often. As for fuel prices here is the station near my house in West Hills, Ca. (part of Los Angeles). They have diesel @ $3.87 and regular @ $4.03.

This is my home town of Brandon MS. Diesel is at $3.58 there.

I'm headed there tonight to and will be sure to fill up before I leave. It's about $0.20 more here around New Orleans.

In the twin cities gas is $4.27 and diesel $3.80 They blame the price rise on 2 refineries changing over to summer blend! Mn senator Senator Amy Klobuchar is going to get to the bottom of the pricing scandal

Prices in Orlando:

$3.299 87
$3.659 diesel

Starting to creep back up, but I paid the same price in April for my Diesel.
Wife's explorer last month @ Costco was $3.199.

Where in Ca. do you live? Here in my area (L.A.) diesel has always been cheaper than gas or about the same. Oh! Thank you.

Maybe it's because we have more refineries down here in L.A. that our gas prices are cheaper or the city/county in the Bay area is adding more taxes. Have a great weekend.

Great quote, there really is nothing we can do about the price of the fuel, except coupons with at most a 15 gallon limit

Across the corridor here in Tampa, reg is $3.35 and diesel is .50 more at $3.85. I haven't seen diesel be cheaper than gas in many moons.
