Pretty f’d up that you get excited to pay $4.99 for diesel. But is also makes it pretty clear how f’d up california is, same stuff here versus there. Still spent $500 to fill up with 100 gallons in both tanks of my truck.

Yea… .50/gallon delta there, $1.50-$1.70 delta here in the Southwest. Nuts.

I think it’s pretty fucked up that we saw prices like
That in Missouri last week. When you consider the poverty rate in Missouri and the cost of living / average income is way different than say, ca. But the fuel is only a dollar cheaper. Man, it’s hard not to feel sorry for the Midwest laying these prices. I just really don’t see how people can do it.

I was excited to fill up in Fort Mohave over the weekend on my way home from Pirates. Diesel for my motorhome was $5.39 a gallon and gas for my truck was $4.65. Such a steal in todays market. I dropped $500 pretty quick and felt ass raped.

Yeah but how's the weather? 😁

It was hot and humid in Parker yesterday, I didn't even wanna go outside!

Today is flawless. Blue sky's and zero humidity. Perfect day in SoCal, opps, I mean Earp!

Blythe was 5.99 a few weeks ago when we did the river run, and people were LINED UP! Crazy

Did you try Buc ees? they are usually the cheapest. But then you do spend the savings plus more inside

It $6.89 around me in Ontario, I would have saved $85.5 in 1 fill up on the truck..

My unscientific reseach of the Plano/Frisco/McKinney area indicates diesel is $5.29. A couple of weeks ago, most locations priced it at $5.99.
