DEF pump price
Fueled up at Flying J today, and was also low on DEF so went to pump some DEF, didn't really pay any attention to the price until after I was already pumping.
Freakin' $3.59 a gallon!!!
I stopped as soon as I saw that, only put in $10 worth.
I had been buying 2.5 gallon jugs at walmart, but they recently raised their price to $7.88 plus .66 tax here, makes the jugs $3.41 a gallon.
So, walmart jugs are back to being cheaper than Flying J/Pilot, but not by much.
There is a truck stop along the way on one of my routes that has DEF for $2.29 a gallon, guess I'll have to plan on stopping there when I can.

Truck stops are a blight on the diesel supply. They get the same product and then jack the price up another 50 cents or more because they know that people are going to buy based on location. The DEF at the pump situation is the same thing. I routinely try to find locations off the common path to fuel up, thankfully there are more than two hands full of stations with diesel around me.

Just wish they gave a similar discount on DEF.

Yeah, but I buy hundreds of gallons of DEF and thousands of gallons of fuel a year, so price always makes a difference to me.

I'm rural enough that there is diesel, and suburban enough that it's just about everywhere. Water isn't really an issue.
