We are getting ready to leave the Lake Siskiyou rally and I filled up with Diesel yesterday in Mt. Shasta, CA for $5.129. When we filled up last Wednesday on the way up here it was $4.799.

We left last Thursday to spend the Memorial Day weekend with other campers at Cliffside county park in Racine, Wi. I filled up at 455.9 which was mentioned earlier. Today, Tuesday, it is up to 479.9. Additionally the other state park we frequent has raised it's rates from $20 to $25 and $35 on holiday weekends.

Yesterday I posted fuel prices on another post but that post is gone. Yesterday in Cedar Rapids area gas was 3.75 10% blend and regular was 3.85 a gallon. Diesel was 4.64-4.75 a gallon. We are luckier then others on the prices. This is the time of the year that farmers are putting in crops and diesel usually goes up. We also have E 85 blend and it was 3.24 a gallon.

Regarding the "other" diesel price thread...... It has been removed in favor of keeping this one going. Thank you to the poster of the other thread but we decided not to have multiple threads on this issue. Sorry if this has caused any confusion.

Also please remember to stay on topic! There is another thread for posting info other than fuel prices! Thank you.

Gas in the van today, just enough to get where I was going and coming home again. $4.049. Don't believe they sold diesel at that station, so cannot provide the price. Ohhh, that is in Lenawee County Michigan

Just went and got fuel for the truck and added the Bio-medic to the fuel. Gas is 3.75 for 10%blend and reg is 3.85 and diesel is 4.63-4.75 a gal. In IA have blended gas and it is cheaper. We also have E-85 what is 3.24 a gal. We are luckier then others on fuel for sure.

Santa Fe, NM the cheapest I've found is 4.759. I haven't checked the Smith's a couple miles up the road recently. They're usually a few cents cheaper than the station with the 4.759.

NW MI is running 4.89 for diesel - 4.18 for gas.

Price of oil dropped $3.34/bbl today - gained $0.14 right at the last moment. I would love to see a free fall. Not holding my breath though...

Some time ago I did some figuring and discovered that in my case the break-even point for me was when diesel fuel was $.60 more per gallon than gasoline. We've reached that point and passed it. Here in CA where we are, diesel fuel is $4.99 - $5.29 and regular unleaded is $4.09 - $4.29. It is now cheaper to run a gasoline engine truck. I can't see how the big truckers are going to make it unless they pass on to us the increased costs they have. We still include our diesel fuel as part of our living expenses which are still lower than what they were when we lived in a stick house. We just have to adjust the amount of travel and make as much use of "free" parking when we can. Since I've been laid up due to back surgery, we haven't had the "hit" of the higher prices really get to us yet. It's hard to think about traveling 250 miles and having to pay $125 for fuel. That's what it would cost us per day as we pull the rig because we usually travel 250 miles per day.

Enough rambling because I said to myself originally that I wasn't going to get into this discussion since I couldn't do anything about it anyway. I'm hoping that the price will eventually settle below $3.50/gallon but will just have to wait and see.

Thank you.

We pay $5.89 per US Gallon. The spread is now enough to make the extra cost of a diesel engine not recoverable in a reasonable period based upon higher mileage. Hence I am now looking for a good used V10 or 8.1.

Diesel here in Moab ranges from low of 4.659 to high of 4.899. Did see one station around Mexican Hat that was $5.00.

On our drive today Monument Valley to Moab we saw very few RV's!!
Also not much traffic of any kind!!

We are at Spanish Trail Rv Park a few miles south of Moab. Nice park but the traffic noise is kind of bad!!

Diesel fuel in Mt. Shasta, CA is DOWN to $5.059! Wow! Such a deal. Guess I'd better fill up NOW before it goes back up to
$5.159.
