What the hell!! Wife just called me to say that the price of diesel has gone back up 5 cents! History: Back on 2/12 diesel was $3.339. On 2/26 it JUMPED to $3.599. Then on 3/02 it JUMPED to $3.699! Next on 3/04 it went DOWN 5 cents to $3.619! Now today 3/06 it's back up $3.699! What the heck is going on here? Now I know why the station has a permanent ladder with a platform on the freakin sign!! Geezzz.... This insane!! Sorry for the rant!!

The only way to lower fuel prices is to use less over a long period of time. But seeing how the rest of the world is just starting to get motorized like the US and Europe, I don't think the overall world demand is going to get lower anytime soon.

x2. Its never going to come down! Get used to it and sell your truck and get a gasser before things get worse and your diesel aint worth ****! They are going to bleed us dry as long as we and the government allow it and I dont think there is anything we can do about it and I am sure the government wont.
Latter..............

Heck no, they would climb even higher! Do you want higher fuel prices? Explain to me how taxing the oil companies will lower the price of oil.........
