on my way in to work this morning. Prices are now: $3.259 for 87 octane at the usual Meijers (the same at the close-by Speedway, Sonic), with the higher grades 10 cents higher respectively The Gas City that sells E85: $3.399 for 87 octane; $2.899 for E85 Didn't take notice of the Shells, BP prices but the Citgo near work is $3.239 for 87. Guess that daylight-saving-time summer-driving-season price jack-up kicked in...

Replying to: gagrice (Mar 10, 2008 12:52 pm) Reasons for the reversal: Demand for diesel is soaring in China and India as their economies continue to steam ahead. In Europe, more than half of all vehicles run on diesel. And the cleaner-burning diesel fuel now being sold in California is more expensive to produce. In addition, the federal excise tax on diesel is six cents higher per gallon. And: The high fuel cost is a relatively new problem for trucking companies. Until a few years ago, diesel fuel - a byproduct of petroleum - was generally less expensive than regular gas. But government mandates to make diesel fuel cleaner and higher oil prices have steadily pushed up the price of diesel. The higher costs coupled with a slowing economy have been hard on the entire trucking industry, but especially so on small companies and independent drivers. Can't find a lot of other good reasons.
