Over the last 2 weeks we've slid up from $2.59 to $2.75 for RUG. And an odd observation, the pricing on the sign you can see from the street is showing the price for RUG and the lower price for E85 rather than the diesel price. Not sure I've seen that before
There are a couple of Shell stations on I-75, North of Dayton. They have really, really low prices for RUG, and they are legitimate. But, if you need PUG, the spread is $1.10/gallon over RUG. So, they aren't lying. But, it really frosts my ---
Our roads have gone to hell even with the taxes. Oh wait, I forgot...we still have 10 cents in gas tax from 1994 that was supposed to be temporary for extra money for snow plowing for the WAY higher than average snowfall that year. They must be using a different dictionary than me for the definition of temporary

🤣 Well I think the legislators want to give voting public 3. things: 1. higher taxes 2. bad to worse roads 3. temporary renewable to “in perpetuity”
Now that I've moved from a 4cyl diesel to a PUG TTV6, I expect prices to rise and rise again.
And you are getting your expectations?! 😜😩 But give us your impressions of the new ride.
But as I have posted some time back, the real profit is in ULSD, not gasoline. So even though the price of gasoline rises, the greater % profit is still in ULSD.
Hasn't needed gas yet. I think PUG here is in the 3.80 range, so there will be some hurt.
Actually in the stop 'n go grind, mileage is barely less than the Bluetec. But on the highway, I will feel it a little more. It sure is fast and smooth anyway.

Indeed, not as many as I should have. I had it for 33.5 months, I seldom average over 700 miles a month. I hope the new owner has a 100 mile/day open road commute to put it to good use.
I'll stick to the 10K interval in the book, which I only had to do twice in my Bluetec tenure. I think mpg for that car was something around 30 during my time, which included a lot of red light to red light (thanks, "engineers") suburban grind. It would easily get into the 40s on a road trip though, and that on diesel which is now cheaper than RUG here, at least for now.
Though that might be the case, it seems any reason is an excuse to raise prices. Prices no longer increase in .01-.05 increments, but .20+. and decrease in smaller amounts.

Got up @3:30 am to drop off family at the airport. For some reason, on the return trip, I remembered to look at the prices at a station nearest my house. RUG $2.659 Diesle $3.139, so .48 spread.

Then I realized I put in RUG with this tank, rather than the mid-grade I normally use.
Guess I'll need to pay attention to any performance or MPG differences with this tank.

I’ve read articles that say that more natural gas products are vented/flared than SOLD worldwide.
Gasoline, back Rockefellers standard oil days used to be considered WASTE. Diesel fuel was the desired market driven products.
Yours is far off.
Edit - less than 1% in the US.
So the underlying GAS costs $1/gal more in CA (roughly)
WA gets the bronze medal!!
There's something depressing. PA's state gas tax is higher than the total state & federal tax of 43 states
