Just venting.
For the past couple weeks I have watched, as have you I'm sure barrels of oil drop from $78 to now $62. A drop of around 20%.
But diesel in Colorado was around 3.20 a few weeks ago and is now just barely in the 2.90 - 2.95 range give or take. :(
They are screwing the truckers and us CTD owners and it smells!! [verymad]
By my calculations, to match the 20% decline in the oil, diesel would need to come down to $2.56 or so. Not even close.
I realize there are other costs to the price of fuel besides the raw oil, but they sure can raise it in a hurry when the price of the raw oil is going up. I'd like to [dummy] a few of them.
Man, it just ticks me off! [verymad] [verymad]

p.s. I think I feel better now.
