Four sixty-nine!!

Oh come on, get your mind out of the gutter!

I saw Diesel at my favorite Unocal 76 station at $4.69 this afternoon. Yes, it's sad to be excited about anything over $4 but we've gotta take what they're givin'! I do like the trend though.

Twenty cents? Yes, it was a great solvent at that price, too! Used a lot of it.

$4.55 up here in Granada Hills, but I see it's cheaper down by the marina.

Isn't it funny how they jack the price up $1.50 within a few weeks and keep it there for awhile and then lower it twenty cents or so and everybody is happy!
Why is that?

Yes - the trend is good... although... wait for September to come, I fear it will commence going in the wrong direction again

Diesel came down 6 cents today, kinda pissed I filled up the other day. But I'm trying to figure out my real fuel economy and that's the only wau I know how to do it.
