diesel prices???

Hey guys, just wondering what fuel prices are doing down below the 49th parrallel. Planning a road trip in spring. Northern Cali (Redding)and then Yellowstone on my way back up to Manitoba. I realize that things may change a lot between now and mid May, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask.
Thanks

Yea, they can run offroad in canada i believe. haha.
A cop bitched at some canadians for filling up at a pump by us with the red stuff, they had no idea there was a difference.
He said to them, "as soon as you leave i'm going to pull you over for that."
They were almost full, wtf were they to do then? ya know?

no idea what happened after.

Can't run red (we call it dyed or Purple) unless you've got farm plates here. Still not technically supposed to run it in road vehicles.

Mind you, in a lot of parts of Saskatchewan or Manitoba, you could make just about as good time driving off the road as on.
