I bought a bunch of #2 off-road last week and it was 1.49
I will have to go check the station now , maybe it went down I could use another 50-60 gallons to fill the tank.
diesel used to be always less than gas
gas was 1.99 yesterday

I fill my house with the #2 off-road cleaner than #2 heating oil with less wax solids to clog the filter furnace burns it well. less money than the #2 home heating oil and it is an off road use

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't diesel fuel cheaper to make than regular gas? If so I could never understand why it started being higher priced than gas unless it's because more personal vehicles use diesel now. Check yr states fuel tax!

I think diesel just doesn't have to be refined as much as gas and has more oil left in it.

Dodge has Cummins. Ford has Powerstroke. I'd rather be Cummin than Strokin'. Cummins has got it goin'.

2.12 for diesel and 1.99 for gas at 5pm here
the off road was 1.59 I suppose it went up a dime because harvest is in full swing

Simple "diesel" is much cheaper to make than gasoline. Oil companies at remote sites used to make their own on site because all you have to do is heat up crude oil and diesel comes off the top. However, it also has a lot of things the EPA doesn't like. It burns thick and dirty. The EPA began mandating cleaner and cleaner fuel (low sulphur and now Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel or ULSD), so now it's more expensive and we have to add additives back in (if you're smart) to replace the lubrication that used to be in the fuel. Legal diesel is now more expensive than gasoline because of the EPA.
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.
