Still around $5.20 here is Southern Idaho. I'll be happier when it drops below $3. We don't need to drive much. Feel for those who do.
Here we put salt on Margaritas, not sidewalks.

The real issue is diesel prices which affect everything from agriculture to transportation

More refineries should be under construction now but instead they continue to shut them down

Best hurry up with those electric farm tractors and semis...and get used to paying much more for everything

I'd say go back to horses but I'm sure they'd complain about all the horse farts...

Federal tax is more on diesel than Gas.     

Doesn't sound right that a lesser refined fuel would cost more.

Tax has little to do with cost. It's more about opportunity. I expect the justification is that the vehicles tend to be heavier.

Making transportation cheaper was a key to raising the world standard of living. Now it's more expensive and people who confuse weather and climate want to make it worse.

$3.95 yesterday in middle of nowhere TX.  Down about 40 cents from last week. 

Upside... I actually drove more miles than normal last week  80 whole miles LOL.  Think it was $17.50 to fill the truck back up.  WFH, curbside shop every Thursday, stop by the liquor store on the way home.  Viola don't have to leave the house for a week and I love it.

The price is stuck around 5.34 to 5.40 near me. Way better than almost 7, but headed in the right direction.

Can't remember.  is there an 'ignore' feature on this forum?  If I want to kill brain cells it's way easier to drink them to death than read drivel.

Lol. Yes there is an ignore .

So far I don't have anybody on it. Zach would be one that probably should be tossed out of here but I want to ignore him yet

Zach is across the board, the same with everyone.

Quite different than the stalker here that referred to you as an “it” today.
They're casting their bait over there, see?
