    Default Diesel Fuel Price

    Our wholesale cost of Diesel has gone down 28.4 cents per gallon since March 17th. This drop in price should be reflected on the street in the near future.

    That sure is good news!

    When we first started running our bus in 1998, we always stopped in Oklahoma City where fuel was 87.9 at the low. I'm starting to sound like my mom, " Why I can remember when...."

    I am in Port Arthur, Tx. this morning and was going to fill up at $3.83 before heading home. Now I think I'll just get a spalsh and see what happens in the next week or so.
    Oh the heck with it, if I'm going to the trouble of waiting for a shot at the pump, I'm filling up. But, that is good news for a change.

    Tom, I noticed there was no price for diesel on your sign....

    I remember when...... we bought our bus, and drove it home and filled it up the very first time. It was $1.13 and the date was 9-13-2001. Easy to remember the date .

    Oh, and this brings up another of my pet peeves. At the prices they are charging these days, you would think they could knock off the stupid .9 on the prices. Maybe it made a difference when gas was 11 cents a gallon, but really now, they are no longer fooling anybody. The first company that changes this gets my business in the future, even if they do round it up!

    I saw where Truckers were protesting the price of Diesel. Its gotten to the point where they're making no $$ but simply supporting the Oil Industry. It seems to me prices would fall if we had a few more refinaries in this country.

    I hear that the truckers are going to have a shutdown to protest. That will wake someone up.

    We could cure this problem in a NY minute if everybody would reduce their fuel usage by just 10%.

    In my bus log book I have many fuel purchases at less than $.90. But even with diesel at $4.00 my entire year's cost of fuel is still less than the depreciation or the lost earnings on the invested capital. By far. Not even close.
