It dipped to 3.99 a gallon at a Walmart station here in Houston . OPEC pulled some shade by reducing production , now sitting at 4.49 after 2 weeks hitting market trials .

Talking TEXAS Diesel Fuel

And of course, the TEXAN has to brag and make us all feel bad.... .

Here in La La Land it's finally creeping down, at no brand stations I've seen it for slightly under $5/ Gal.

Summer's almost here and I've still not fixed my A/C .
