I know we have had millions of posts of the whys and wherefores of fuel pricing. I'm basically a capitalist so I'm not going to whine about profits.
What I want to know is why the diesel price is sky rocketing but the gas price is remaining steady? I just don't get it. There appears to be no rhyme or reason for any of it.
Can of worms? Yeah, but I still don't get the fluctuations.
For what it's worth, these were the prices at the local shop that sits in the middle of nowhere (ie. no city taxes)
Diesel = two weeks ago $2.98 , today $3.21
Gas = last week $2.87 , today $2.89
