I saw unleaded for $2.99 yesterday. Can’t understand why diesel is still $2 more a gallon. I love filling the 50 gallon tank in my truck…

I paid $4.99 yesterday for diesel.
Diesel is hovering around $4.99/gal here too. I remember when I had my cummins about 10 years ago and diesel hit $5/gal. It was $200+ to fill that thing up and I was filling it weekly, and that was on top of the truck payment
It was one of the reasons I ended up selling it. It is insane that a byproduct of gasoline is this much more.
I paid $3.39/gal late last week for gasoline. I think 87 is up to $3.50 +/-

Finally under $5.00 locally here in Northern CA. It’s even more expensive then some places in the SF Bay Area. Most of the gas stations here are owned by a small group of people - I have a sneaking suspicion they get together and keep prices higher as a group.
Damn that 50L cost me $39.20 US here. Gas is $2.97 per gal. at my local Sam's, I thought our gas was high ...... your paying over $10 u.s. per gallon for gasyou poor thing !
I'm calling Sam's club to bitch about their $3.29 gas here. I got a membership for $8 during the" PutBidin price hike". They're gas is typically 30 cents cheaper a gallon.

Diesel got expensive with the mandate of low sulfur diesel & later ultra-low sulfur diesel. It costs a lot to get it that clean. I made this stuff as a refinery operator for ExxonMobil.
We will never again see diesel prices lower than gasoline.
Sadly, the way the politically-driven public hatred of petroleum has been accelerating in recent times, there seems to be less and less concern over the economic impact of abandoning it completely before an adequate alternative is widely available. I fear that at some point, we'll be forced to rely solely on public transportation because we won't be able to afford private transportation. Our culture has always lead the world in the freedom that private transportation affords one, but that seems to be changing at an alarming rate. These thoughts I have are thoughts that were preposterous to me just a decade ago, by the way. 
Some of us live out of the city limits…..way out and the bus doesn’t come near our homes. In fact we don’t even have a greyhound bus station within 80 miles. That’s what some of these city slickers don’t comprehend. Public transportation won’t work in rural America.
Yep. I'm one of them. To get to my home, one must drive for one mile off public roads. These days, you hear rumblings of a civil war, and if one were to happen, I'm pretty sure it would be rural vs. urban Americans. We get more and more different every year...
I'm pretty sure the long term goal is to get rid of people living in rural America. They'll make the cost of living so expensive that you'll have to be jammed in with everyone else. Well, I guess unless shit pops off and people are able to stop that from happening.

Relax, there’s an election in two years that will change direction on the fossil fuel BS going on today.
I don't share your confidence, unfortunately. Since this isn't the political forum, I'll leave it at that.
Yup. Waiting to see if my friends shop can fix whatever is now causing my check engine light.
