My 3500 that weighs almost twice as much as my 4cyl 4Runner (commuter) gets same or better mileage....usually

$2.29 as of yesterday at the corner Chevron.
Phillips 2 blocks north still at $2.19 last night when I drove by.
Payday tomorrow, hope it holds.

As I was filling up, the owner walked out and raised the price on the sign to $2.31.
Luckily, I was locked in at $2.29.
Took an even $60 to fill to the bend in the filler neck.
I did average 15.5mpg this time though, up from 14.1.
I've been extra soft on the go pedal since the last fillup, just to see how it would improve.

Wanted a CTD since 96, finally got a fixer in March of 04. What happens ? Diesel prices skyrocket DANG !
. I have heard for years "Just be thankfull we dont have to pay what Europe pays for fuel".
Found a great website shows fuel prices in the US and Europe as well as what we all pay in taxes. Guess what ? Prices for fuel worldwide are pretty much identical. What makes the huge difference are the you guessed it TAXES!

It was $2.17 here a few days ago (which sounds like a steal compared to what some of you are posting) but they removed the last 2 digits off the big sign by the road. Diesel & gas are $2.__ but you have to pull up to the diesel pump to see what it's gone up to.
I wonder if they're ashamed to advertize their price.
FWIW, this is a high volume Mobil truck stop right off the highway.

i suppose very high fuel costs are a thing we have always had in the UK and we learn to live with them, you can see why american cars only sell in very small numbers here.
it will cost me £135 ($243) to fill up from empty, but thats the price you pay for owning something diffrent, and i wouldn't swap it for anything. i only put about 5,000 miles on the clock a year so it's just about affordable as a luxury.
