Members report fast-rising fuel costs across many regions, with regular gas commonly ranging from the high $2s in parts of Texas, Louisiana, and Indiana to roughly $5.00 or more in California.

The deal with Individual Pumps and the Common Head pump is End delivery of fuel. There is a Filter/strainer, holds around 1/2 gal of Last Requested fuel so if need NON Ethanol are better off in a three Pump Head station than a Single pump head three choices. My Harley CAN use E5-E10 gas, anything above that is HORRIBLE, economy drops from 48-52mpg to less than 38 in most cases.
Always wondered about this. Assumed it was more like a quart.
Half a gallon is a big chunk when talking about a motorcycle or ATV tank.
 
Around Two to three feet of Steel Pipe to better than quart Strainer, just at 1/2 gal

And for sensitive fuel systems a death nail.
 
Diesel is getting back down here in North Texas.

Filled at Costco today. $4.99 for unleaded. Prices in the Los Angeles area vary significantly and are around $6.00 for unleaded at some stations 2 or 3 miles away.
 
$3.90 for 87 in Orofino Idaho. Think it's our first under $4 this trip.
 
The government is in a bit of a panic over gas prices. An investigation into the major oil companies has been mentioned.
 
The oil companies are the only businesses I know of where their profits go way up whenever there is a problem of any type.

How 'bout:
  • Defense contractors (wars, geopolitical tensions)
  • Cybersecurity companies (major cyberattacks, data breaches)
  • Disaster restoration companies (hurricanes, floods, fires)
  • Insurance companies (depending on pricing cycles and investment income after widespread risk increases)
  • Precious metals producers (economic uncertainty drives gold demand)
  • Private security firms (civil unrest or heightened security concerns)
  • Medical supply and pharmaceutical companies (disease outbreaks, pandemics)
  • Funeral service companies (higher mortality events)
  • Grocery retailers (panic buying before storms or emergencies)
  • Utility repair and infrastructure contractors (natural disasters)
  • Shipping and logistics companies (when supply disruptions increase freight rates)
  • Commodity traders (price volatility)
 
Diesel is $3.86 at Petro with the Greenlane card. Not using fleet cards, the cheapest around Weatherford, Texas is $3.98 at Murphy (before the 10 cents discount with WalMart+). Regular gas is now down to $3.22 (or $3.12 with WalMart+).
Eight days later diesel is down to $3.65 or so - regular gas is down to $2.85. Slowly but surely.

I seem to remember someone on one of the networks saying that was going to happen. In my area, gas is still around 3.79 and diesel is still above 5.00. I don’t know what size my tank is in my truck but two days ago I pulled in to get fuel with 1/4 of a tank. The pump stoped pumping when it got to 100.00. And it still wasn’t full.
 
Diesel here just dropped under $4/g, from $3.79-3.99/g, Gas hovering just at $3
