At the local gas station, Premium (91 oct) has dropped down to $2.63 as of last night. It has come down 30 cents from last week. I better get a bigger jar of vasoline when I go and fill up with diesel tho maybe it won't hurt so bad???

I have a ford F350... it is my baby...... but had to quit using it for commuting to work everyday....Now she just sits home :frown:
Bought a new Mazda 3..... for the above mentioned reason... 35 mph vs. 18 mpg (if i'm lucky) ... is such a huge difference. My diesel bill for the month of Sept... was 642.00!!! :jawdrop: Insane!!

I'm guessing your Pinto must not have the optional 302 Boss in it since it gets 28 mpg????

You are obviously not from California.We are already paying more than that for gas and diesel.

Diesel seems to be running about $0.50+ per gallon more than regular which is what my beast (Avalance 2500 with 8.1 liter) guzzles.
At $0.50 more per gallon it doesn't seem to make sense to even own a diesel but that doesn't help the current owners. :frown:

I'm thinking about getting an F250 diesel to replace my 04 F150. Planning to get a 30' Advantage in the spring. Will the F 150 w/ 5.4 pull the 30' ?

My wife keeps complaining about me buy that new truck.
Plus got up yesterday morning, went outside to get the paper dam theifs broke out the window on my camper shell, & took $17,000 worth of new tools out of the back, now need to get new window, $300 out of pocket, as my deductable is $500.

Shit... diesel just jumped up .30-.50 cents a gallon here in Albuquerque last night. Now Gas 86 octane is 2.60 or so and diesel is 3.50 or so... What the heck is up with that. :cry:

Diesel fuel went up 30 cents a gallon this morning to $3.29.
The reason it went up is because it's cloudy and overcast in Wisconsin.

$3.25 here in my neck of the woods...SE-Pa and once again higher than Premium grade gas :notam: It was below regular grade gas for only 2 months....in almost 5 years!
PS unlsee I'm towing the boat (done for the season)...OR I need it in the Snow months, my Diesel ain't going anywhere!
