On my way to work, regular was $2.359 and on my way home it was $2.459 for regular. I got into the habit of keeping the tank full lately, but this shocked me. I figure at the lake gas is going to be near $4.00 so a full week-end of cruising is going to run about $1,000. Well, thats what retirement is for, isn't it?

I wouldn't be suprised if we were paying $3.00 per gallon by Labor Day.

THIS SUCKS. Filling up the sub and boat for a weekend of fun is going to get expense.

id still like to understand why deisel is so expensive now. and why arent the large shipping companies, trucking companies, and all the other large deisel users saying anything about it? thats a huge percentage of an increase in the past year or so and they arent complaining? WTF? its not like the shipping costs went much higher. so how can they afford to still ship via trucks, train, ships, ect, and pay the huge increase in fuel?
