Diesel Prices!!!!!!

I almost had a heart attack today. I noticed driving home the other day that diesel and gas prices were the same at my local station. I have never seen that over the last several years. I figured they forgot to change the sign. I went to fill up tonight and diesel was 2.69 while gas was 2.88...what the heck? Is diesel finally dropping below gas now?

Of course its getting to be summer time and big oil has to rape the vacationers for a while. Dont worry they will jack diesel back up before long.

Same thing here. Diesel $2.69 and gas $2.79.....that's only at the Murphy and Valero. Everywhere else diesel ranges from $2.79 to $2.99

Don't get diesel much, but I noticed that here as well. First time since I bought my truck almost 3 years ago that diesel is less than gas.

Man I hope they jack the price up soon, if they keep lowering the price of diesel, it's going to put me out of business!!

I filled up the other day when I got out here to California. Diesel is 3.299 and unleaded is 3.499. Sort of made me feel good to pay less then unleaded price for once and not accidently be putting the red fuel nozzle into the truck.

I've been pleased to see that diesel has been less than regular gasoline around here for the last month or so. Just filled up a couple nights ago: diesel $2.91 reg. gas $3.23.

Been that way each time I've filled up in the last month... $.20-.30 cheaper. Bout time... it's been completely backwards the last few years. Hopefully it stays this way, like it should.

I never look at the price of fuel, i figure i gotta buy it anyways and i have learned where to buy it and were not to buy it. I think its like 2.79 here, i dont even know the price of gasoline at all.

I miss the days when diesel was always at least $.10 cheaper than gas. And gas was $.99/gallon, LOL!!

Just wait and see though, soon diesel will cost more. More diesel burned on the roads. Especially over the summer.... DOH!!!
