Diesel is the cheapest fuel to make and the most expensive to buy...WTF over? Its all aboout supply and demand...if we all sold our diesels and bought gassers the price of that would go up...we cant win until we get all the Cheby's and Ferd's to sell and buy gassers...that might help

I keep telling myself its just a cycle and diesel will moderate itself with gas again. Of course its all liable to be $4 a gallon by then.[:@]

Did you ever notice how it's taxed? One station here lists taxes for both gas and diesel and diesel gets something like .35 or .45 cents MORE tax on it than gas. I think they do it because they can and they know commercial haulers don't have a choice on what they run.

That extra revenue certainly doesn't go back into the roads here in PA.

I tried to keep it under 1800 rpm or around 65 mph this last tank.
I think I got an extra 1.5 mpg......
I am really lookingto buythe Quadzilla for some extra MPG now.

$3.899 in Monroe, WA. $3.729 in Issaquah... I usually buy 6 or 7 gallons of B99 to mix with the tank at $3.42 ish. No excuse. It hurts.
