I was just wondering if anyone is getting diesel for less than regular gas prices. I'm paying about same price as premium for diesel.

No such luck in my neck of the woods. Matter of fact it went higher about a month after I bought my truck back in October of 04. (it was at about 1.50 with 87 octane at $1.75)
Gas is dropping, starting to see it at about $2.00, Diesel at $2.15. Must be a reigonal thing.

Diesel is usually ~ 10 cents per Litre cheaper than regular unleaded around here.

Diesel is running 10-20 cents over unleaded in Tucson. Cheapest I've seen in the past couple days is $2.29, with unleaded at $2.19. It's dropping, but not nearly fast enough....

Great new from Riggins, Idaho!

Diesel and Unlead are both $2.399

As for other towns for diesel prices...

New Meadows 2.459
McCall - $2.659

The greatest part is that Riggins is a small town of 350 POP... The prices are better!!!

Isn't it sad how people are saying how low diesel prices are at $2.45 per gallon? What's the odds of everyone filling up on the same day and carpooling as much as possible for a week straight so no one buys any fuel? But then again who's to say it will make a difference? When I got my license five years ago diesel ran $.93 a gallon. That's right 93 cents!!!! That's insane. Right now it usually costs me about $60 to fill my tank. If it were only $.93 a gallon it would only take me about $26. That's $34 dollars more per customer per week just at the rate I go through fuel. Now, I know the oil companies are money hungry like everyone else, but surely they've made enough to cut us some slack haven't they? I'm not so sure that the price of oil per barrel does keep going up. I think that it goes up just because they say it does. Am I alone here?
