One thing I found out the last time I was in California.


There ain't no guards at the Eastern border after 5 o'clock.

Riggins Idaho - UPDATE

$2.929 Diesel Fuel
$2.549 Unleaded

$2.929 Diesel Fuel * 35 Gallons = $102.20 (To Fill the truck from empty)
$2.549 Unleaded * 5 Gallons = $12.75 (To Fill the GW from empty)

I can handle the GW for fuel better that the diesel right now...

I'm still ride on the GW more the the Dodge... Sorry guys... I need my cheap seat... I got no idea what I'm going to do this winter...

And to think the new energy bill includes subsidies to the oil companies?
IF the subsidies are to help keep fuel prices down, it ain't working. Even if subsidies did help keep fuel prices down, we're still paying for the subsidies. Just another smoke screen.

Diesel owners happy about being robbed as long as I'm being robbed a little more? We're both being robbed!

Diesel around here is now lower than regular gas.

Gas prices went up to around $2.65 this week for regular unleaded. Diesel is still around $2.55.

That was yesterday afternoon. Might of changed a couple of times this morning.

I was flamin last night when I saw what the local Truck stop in Santa Maria (Chevron)was charging these guys. $3.29 a gal. I havent seen it more than $3.19 anywhere here.Thats even higher than the crooks here in Shell beach charge which is typically 20 to 30 cents a gal higher. Guy said it runs him $900 to fill his rig now.
