Same here (MN). Gas-1.71, Diesel-1.85 http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Thumbs Down.gif


I guess that's what I get for bragging about diesel being cheaper than gas all summer.Edited by: Minn-Kota

Heating Oil being drawn out of the system, reduces the amount of #2 available for us.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif

It's the same here too. I'm thinking it has to with the war effort that is causing the supply to drop and they (oil companies) are raising the price. Edited by: BassinRVer

What's really bad is here in OK, gas is taxed I think 5 cents more per gallon. Yet at least here in Stillwater, diesel is about 10 cents more per gallon. I am sure the truck stops are probably closer to even, though.

Diesel fuel costs more 'cause gasoline costs more to produce!!! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Confused.gif

Earlier this year diesel was ~20 cents less than regular gas, now I'm seeing diesel rival premium gas prices.

I think the approaching heating season has something to do with this. Someone in the oil refining/storage business would know.

Yeah, well lets get over it. People complain about it, but do nothing.
Wait till it hits $3 a gallon. And higher.....
