What are you paying for fuel?

It came down to 2.04 on average For diesel Here today A buddy of mine told me he saw it for 1.93! :blob2:
 
Diesel I believe around here is in the $2.25 - $2.30 / gal range. I just paid $2.26 the other day for regular unleaded. Those prices have probably gone up in the past few days.
 
Here in Ok, 87 octane is running anywhere from 1.66 to 1.73. last I noticed, diesel was 2.02. If you buy a gift card @ walmart, you can take another 3 cents off at the murphy oil station out front.
 
Diesel is $2.15 here. Regular gas is $1.95. The Diesel hasn't changed in a Month. the Gas was up to 2.09 and has dropped.
 
according to gas futures Fuel should come down this month but be The highest ever in febuary. :eek:
 
I am the winner so far. I pay $2.529 per gal. for diesel. Reg. unleaded is $2.329 here at most places. You can get it at Costco for $2.159. I am about to get a new chip truck soon. Although I always got diesels, I am thinking I would be better off buying a gas engine. Especially since I drive less than 12K miles a year.
 
$2.05 here for gas, only one station sells diesel, and its out of the way a bit, haven't been past there in a few days.

here

over here diesel is about £0.85 a litre, i worked it out at $6.375 a gallon using my simple maths...anyone wnat to move over here?

Here in Toronto I paid 74.1 cents per litre which with the exchange comes to about US$2.30 per US gallon. Would have been quite a bit cheaper a couple of years ago in US $ but our $ is very high against the greenback. Thanks Wubya for making my impending US vacation a lot cheaper!
 
Diesel is at $2.29, down from $2.34, but up from $2.26. Prices are on a yo-yo from day to day. 87 is running right around $2.06, w/ super at $2.25.

Diesel has done nothing but climb since I bought my new truck in June. Go figure.:rolleyes:
 
RFGs suck to pay for. Cleaner fuel is good though. Also good for anyone in the analytical chem biz selling equipent for total Sulfur in gasolines and diesel fuel with a sensitivity of ppb (parts per billion).

Gas is expensive here. That is ok. I like in a country that is less than half the size of the state I used to live in. I would rather pay $4/gallon in Germany with a fuel efficient auto than $2 in Texas with a gas guzzlin' F350.

I paid €1.09 per liter yesterday. The $$ is so weak now that it comes to quite a few $$/gal. Good days to be earnin €;)
 
if you had voted for a president who would have stopped bombing the **** out of iraq feul prices would have probably gone down ;) i have no sympathy for ya..go on bite back some body :D

Koa, I own both gas and diesel rigs. Longevity of gasoline engines is excellent nowadays but diesels are still champs and even with higher diesel prices the greater energy available in diesel/efficiency of the diesel engines make the diesels cheaper to operate. I don't envy you your decision.:)

So Newfie, you finally admitted you are the cause of all these rising diesel prices. :laugh:

Most likely I will end up with another diesel. Dealing on a new F550 chip truck with a dealer in VA right now. We are real close in price, only about a $1000 apart., started out around $2500 apart. I am looking into these kits that let you run the diesels on filtered waste vegetable oil that you can get from restaurants. MA has a company that will convert your truck to run both for $800. Your fuel will then cost you less than a $1 a gal.
 
2.30/gal for diesel sawgas is 2.28, And if they were really taking over the middle east as I thought they were we should be paying alot less.
 
They did an article in the paper a couple of weeks ago about those kits for diesel engines which allow you to burn waste veggie oil. I have 1 main concern though, how does that affect your warranty?
 
I filled up my diesel at $2.31 the other day.

Koa , is the dealer going to ship that truck to you for free?
