Who ever thought you'd be happy to pay $2.00 for a gallon of fuel?

Idaho diesel Prices!

I'm shocked!

In Riggins, Idaho it is...

$2.479 For Diesel fuel
$2.099 For Unleaded

The owner of the Chevron told me that the state of Idaho is out of diesel fuel and has to be shipped in. It might jump up to $2.609!!!

What's going on here!?!?!

$2.19 when I drove by this morning.

Station down the street was still $2.09, going to try to hit that on the way home from work today,
fingers crossed.

"Fingers Crossed" didn't work.

By the time I got off last night, the $2.09 station had raised to $2.15, so I bit the bullet and filled up.

Noon today, on the way to work, both had raised their price to $2.20

Ooops, I think you merged the wrong way.

Now all of it is under the heading "Idaho Diesel Prices".

Maybe I'll try renaming it back to "Diesel Fuel Prices"

The thread "title" would be what was typed into the header on the last post.
When a thread is 'merged', the threads should be in chronological order.

Back on topic, I can't wait to see what the price is when I go home tonight.

Maybe I can empty out the fyer dumpster behind the local McDonalds.

hey, where near us is bio? I'm over in Goochland.
The guy at the exxon in front of Goochland courthouse said #2 was only $1.75 at Cumberland courthouse, if I had a few more cans it would be worth the drive

$2.12 here in the diesel farm land I don't know where it's going. no relief in sight.
what really bites this year is the cost of marina gas in Ontario. about $3.60 a gallon Canadian. and I am getting 1 mile to the gallon. Also running an average of 50-60 miles a trip this year. I've had to put a surcharge on the charters and the guy;s don't like it much. What can you do? I can;t afford to put the extra $150.00 a trip in the tank. It's going to be too expensive to go fishing pretty soon.

$2.09 at the "cheap place" in town. $2.19 elsewhere. Geez! 8 bucks a day to drive back and forth to work! And who do we have to thank for these lovely prices? .......

Good thing I'm getting over 21 miles per gallon going up and down the big hills here in the land of taxes!

I saw it go from $2.09 to $2.33 a gal in two days in Or. Premium was about $0.15 cents cheaper. CAN YOU SAY MAJOR RIPOFF. THAT IS JUST CROOKED.
