Fuel Costs?

Hear alot about fuel prices going up some more in the near future. Are you guys seeing a dramatic increase? Here in central Kansas, Diesel went up about 6 cents to current price of $1.56/9. Gas has went up much more to around a $1.70 a gallon for the cheapest. Needless to say, glade I parked the V-10 for now. What are you guys spending?

Here is a link to Flying J fuel prices nationwide. I find it interesting that the prices vary so much from region to region, and from station to station within the same area!

I paid 1.43 here in South Carolina last fillup, which was at a truck stop, about 10 cent a gallon cheaper than what they were selling regular unleaded for. How much do ya boyz think it will go in comparison to gasoline???

It's $1.91 here in Phoenix.
Headed to Las vegas on Tuesday. Better load up the wallet.

But, my firends have H2's and 4 x 4 gassers getting 12 and less. Guess we're going to separate the men from the boys in the upcoming months.

Hey VMan, I see you are in Asheville, I got a lot of buddies up there in the hills. I lived up in Mars Hill for a good little piece there.

1.55 this morning, another station has it for 1.49. Has been at that price for past two months I have owned the truck.

They just cut production enough to raise costs. OPEC has discovered they have America by the *****. Three years ago reg. was .74, it went up to the 1.50's and has never went back down. And I should say never will.

1.99 for #2
2.07 for unl
I should mention that the refinery`s are 30 mins from here. I`m waiting for the rationale of less transpotation costs versus highest prices in the country. *******s bleed us dry. I`m in No. Cal
