$1.45 to $1.59 (at stations 10 miles apart) in Delaware.

$1.51 at the Hess in Camp Hill, PA. I noticed it was $1.44 in Pine Grove, PA during a road trip this weekend.

In New England, I usually pay about 1.41 for diesel. Not bad, but just made recent trip to Mannheim PA, filled up with a labled minimum cetane rating of '42', and my 350SD performed much better in fuel economy and power then the stuff I get in New England. They must sell real garbage diesel in New England. I'm surprised the thing even runs! The cetane level must be in the 30's!! Ugggh,:(

I just paid $1.31 on Sat. I have noticed signs advertising $1.35/gal and even some higher here in the Northwest Louisiana Area.

Somewhat off topic, but on many occasions I have had to fill up at truck pumps when car diesel pumps are not available.

The truck sized nozzles require care, but are possible to use without spillage.

One night at the Flying J in Ellensburg, WA, I pulled up to the truck pumps with my 190D, not realizing that the car pumps around the front had diesel.

The console operator was quite condescending as she assured me the flow would be too fast and powerful for me to control.

Not long after, I was hauling a load to Spokane, WA, and I stopped at the same Flying J in my Peterbilt.

I resisted the temptation to pull up at the car pumps so I could be sure of being able to control the flow.

The cheapest I have found in Arizona is a Mobil station in Willcox where it's $1.369. I can't prove it, but it appears that diesel coming into AZ from California runs from $1.70 to $2.00 depending upon the station. Fuel from Texas appears to be in the range of $1.30 to $1.50. Figures....

bluebaby,
i know what you mean! i filled one time at a texaco just north of the fla.-ga line and i was able to fill an almost empty tank in about 14 seconds!! - the best thing was they had great vats of suds and huge long handled brushes to wash off the bugs !

You guys are too lucky. The diesel price in San Jose, CA is about $1.80 as of today (6/17/2003)

Oil and energy companies elsewhere have always tried to fleece
Californians with high oil and energy prices.

diesel price just dropped here
 
down .07 from 1.76 to 1.69 in the last week:cool:

Up to 1.65, lowest was 1.59 here in LA

Here in NE Okla diesel is $1.29 while RegUNL is $1.33. Haven't been out of the area in a while, but seems we have been lucky this way for the last year or so. Part of reason is there are several refineries in the area, not a lot of NIMBIES around.

Ranges from $1.53 to $1.87 here in Seattle, depending on the brand and what part of the city you are in.
