He was at it again here in NC. Went from 3.99 last week to 4.35 yesterday

As a Camry owner I want to say piss off but as a Camry owner....I agree. Really wanted the land cruiser but holy shit I didn't realize how expensive those were.
that is a bullshit story fed to you by the same people that tell you the oceans are-a-rising, but yet they are buying oceanfront mansions.
I must say I'm extremely disappointed by your reply. That someone with your worldly experiences and education could possibly (and publicly) say such a thing is shocking.
It's "spinoff," not spinout.
So, what do you think will be the pretext for future wars? Natural gas, lithium, coal, anti-matter, dilithium crystals...
And I appreciated the Neanderthal reference. We'll survive the aftermath of the apocalypse...probably by feasting the flesh of climate change liberals.
Lol. The 2022 XSE looks nice, but in my mind will always be a gay ass car driven buy high schoolers who couldn’t handle a crown Vic or impala, lol.
I have a trailer hitch on as well, so anything under 700 lbs gets pulled by the Camry. I’ve always done this with my gas sippers.
As I ride down the road in my Camry, rainbow shirt on, with a trailer loaded with lumber, I lol at everyone who thought big trucks were great for daily commuters. Then I fill up my 15 gallon tank and lol for the next 450 miles.

I lied. It went to 4.69 overnight 
Taking the long way home like I did yesterday felt buying an expensive, unnecessary luxury item.
Neanderthals indeed!
You think it's just a coincidence fuel prices jumped .50 in a day? People are focused on Putin's invasion of Ukraine, meanwhile the U.S. is being attacked and destroyed from within.
The B20 I usually get was 3.87 on Monday or Tuesday. It’s 4.15 today. It was 3.65 a week before that.
Can one of you smart MF'rs mansplain to me why Diesel fuel is more expensive at the pump than gasoline?
I thought it was one of the least refined, least additive added fuels we mass produce.(?)
That plus the volume of it used when considering combined passenger car/truck, plus commercial trucks, plus industrial/construction/agricultural users would seemingly equate to large production infrastructure in place to produce and distribute it alongside normal gasoline supplies.
I know the industrial/construction/agri users don't always have to use the ULS diesel but both grades of diesel have parallel price spikes.
Just seems that the pump price should be less than gasoline. Is it built in Fed and State taxes or what? Am I full of shit on my assumption of less refining and production costs compared to gasoline?

In town diesel was $6.06 yesterday, We are always 50 cents higher than the rest of the state in our small area of N. Komifornia. I'm going to schedule a assholectomy to see why its bleeding.
You’re going to have your asshole removed because gas is high?
WTF! I hate that everything I see from back home just solidifies the fact I could never afford to move back. And it’s only been 5 years.
All you Diesel drivers buying the regular stuff are silly. There's a station here in my town that sells what they call dyed diesel, and it's WAY cheaper than regular stuff, and works just the same, and it's also a pretty redish pink color.....silly people.

Stopped in Tulare California this morning at the loves truck stop on my way to Stockton, diesel was 5.70 a gallon.

Real life bullshit is at play though. Wait until they start pulling vehicles with “farm” or “commercial” tags over and check the sulfur content to ensure they aren’t using off road diesel in them.
I heard a rumor that they were already checking cattle transport coming to auction houses for the correct fuel.
Wed fuel was 3.72
Thurs. 4.19
Fri. 4.49
Fuck.
And the cock sucking pump shuts off at 100 bucks, 22gal

Along with the other explanations offered, the vast majority of diesel fuel is used in applications where fuel costs are passed on to the end user. Commercial truckers charge the shipper, construction companies charge the client, farmers charge the buyer of the products. Therefore, the consumer doesn't equate diesel costs into his costs. And that way when fuel costs go up 10 cents (#'s for example) across the board; gas (obvious) goes up 3 cents and diesel (hidden) goes up 7 cents. The passenger pickup guys see the hit but the average city dwelling consumer just bitches about "everything going up".
I've had jobs where we would use 30K to 35K gallons of diesel fuel in a 3 shift day. We prebought at a bulk rate to get a better price over the life of the project.
Thank you,

Dad loved the old park avenues. He made me learn on that first for the maneuverability test. I kind of wish I had gotten the hybrid. I have my eyes on an old beater truck as new trucks are stupid expensive now.
Natural Gas and coal are a couple of years behind oil so those are out. I would think uranium will be the next hot item especially all the uranium we had that Hillary sold to Putin. Liberals are worthless even in death because if you eat them you would get brain disease. The only use for liberals is to build trebuchets and fire them at the enemy as they approach, old school devices still have a purpose.....
more the logistical and delivery/storage side than cost of manufacturing. Simply not nearly as much demand for diesel in north america as gasoline, so more of the crude goes to that revenue stream vs. diesel. Ironically, something very much like diesel is one of the intermediate refining steps for gas.
I wish we had more diesel vehicles, much more efficient energy source, but the Team Green/Gaia has their boot on the neck of anyone even considering such wrong think.
Just paid $3.25 for reg gas here in Belton, sucks for sure.
Demand.
Actually everyone is on ULSD diesel now. (Supposed to be)
For every barrel of oil you get a certain amount of diesel, gas..... Other hydrocarbon products. When I just need one product more I'm having to refine more and still deal with the other products.
Yes there is more diesel volume refined in a barrel of oil than gas, the process of getting the sulphur out of the diesel is one process that adds to the cost. There was a big swing during the obummer days especially in Texas where diesel demand was huge due to the oil field activity, it wasn't that diesel got more expensive, it was gas was getting cheaper as there was a over supply due to the need to produce diesel.
I hardly noticed as my Diesel AWD car gets 45MPG.
If you dont like it dont drive a diesel
2014 Mercedes E250. They only made them for a couple years. The EPA shut them down. You wouldn't want a full size AWD sedan on the road that gets 45 MPG on the highway
They killed the 4 cylinder Sprinter as well. The reason that I heard is that they exceeded emissions during the first 30 seconds after startup.
It would have been a great car to make a hybrid, would probably get 60 MPG if it had been made.
I remember driving a Geo Metro in the 90’s. Everybody chipped in $1 and I could drive for a month, lol.
Would have 5 of us in that thing, with 2 12 inch subs taking up the entire hatch.
Top speed full of us was about 85 mph. Turn the air on in Texas and it dropped to about 75 mph, lol.

It's a little late for that, considering I ordered my truck in 2000 when diesel was the cheapest, most practical fuel. Diesels were so popular for that reason the dicksucking chickenshits then jacked up the cost of a less refined oil.
3.99-4.99 depending on station in my area off I5 in OR.
I found a cheaper place to fill up this afternoon. $4.19 /diesel.
First Biden stole the election and now he's stealing my money. It's as simple as that.

$4.19 here. Gasoline is $3.65 and climbing.
Yeah, because the problem is people who drive or may even need a Diesel engine.
Looks like I’ll have to park the 2000 Powerstroke 7.3 for a while. I really like driving it, 22 years on the road.
Have to switch to the tiny “spam in a can” Honda HR-V, manual transmission, at least it has AC.
40mpg if I coast in neutral whenever possible.
Except the AC takes 8 mpg off the fuel economy……

well, that changed quickly! today in the $4.50 range. driving to and from high point nc, diesel ranged from 4.30 to 4.60 although i did see one 5.01.
At Costco premium was 3.59. Was 3.06 last week I believe. Maybe that was regular. Regular today 3.45 or so. I should have filled up Monday. It's only going to get higher. I'm going to predict here in 'Bama we'll have $6-$7 gas by end of May - depending on this bullshit PJ has gotten the world into.
The libtards said they wanted $6 a gallon gas over a year ago, to force us into being more green... this is all working out perfectly for them! Now they can blame everything on Russia!!
