35 gal. OEM tank and a 70 gal. aux tank for a total of 105 gal.

Under normal driving I can go around 2000 miles or about a month between fillups..

I checked on the way home tonight - $1.799 at our Mobil station. I'm pretty sure Wednesday is 5-cents off diesel, so it's usually $1.849. That would be about right. Diesel has been hovering around the price of mid-grade gas all winter. That station is getting $1.769 for regular and $1.869 for mid-grade.

I'm sure the Hess station that I frequent is at around $1.709

I don't get it! We get our fuel from California. It has to come 250 miles from a refinery by pipeline to get to Reno. It has to be brought by truck from the tank farm in Reno to out here- about 50 miles. We buy it cheaper than the people living next door to the refinery in California!!!! And it's around 1.71-1.91 a gallon. What's wrong with this picture? Jim

i would lay odds that you will see a drastic down turn in fuel prices in late fall (as election time draws near)

And where in Tulsa did you pay that, becasue I bought mine on the NE side of Tulsa (by where I work) and it's the cheapest I've seen.
