All I want to know is where the .9 cents goes.....if I buy exactly 1 gallon of diesel at 3.99*9 and give them $4 do I not get change? hmmm...:confused:


Yeah!


If one guy gets every tenth of a cent, he's still a freekin quadillionair!

(note: I'm not sure if thats even a real number but it sounds like alot)
:D

Drive into town about 8:45am to meet a friend at the Cottage Cafe for breakfast before our snowmobile ride in Taneum/Manastash area. Filled up at the Shell next door (just because it was close). The Shell was at $3.68 for Diesel. The 76 east of there was $3.99. Story's I believe was $3.83.

Oops. Typo in my previous post. :confused:The Shell was at $3.97, not $3.68. Then it still went to $4.12 in about 30 minutes.
 
$4.00 a gallon baby!!!

Filled up this morning in North Bend... 4 bucks a gallon; well, almost. Ok, it was only $3.99 9/10, but by the time I got done spilling it on the ground, it cost me more than $4 bucks per..!
 
Well..... it was $1,050.00 to get to Vegas and back last week in the motorhome..... How much will Graveler spend this weekend in Oregon where the price on the coast is $4.50+ a gallon!
 
I'm rich, so.....

It doesn't matter how much diesel is to me..... paying over $4.05/gal.
here in Duvall. Doesn't phase me how much I pay.

:D:D

Life is!! Deal with it

As I thought I stated before--You will just have to adjust our spending habits to adjust for the new cost of fuel.
Back in 89 my dad was paying over $5.00 a gallon for gas in London, England.
We have been charmed with our gas always being the chepest in the world, but it has come back to bite us--It is now a WORLD economy--so when China's demand went way up on oil--our cost went up for fuel--same thing happened on steel.

I am not any happier about it than the rest of ya all---But--Deal with it.

My rigs use lots of oil products--Just adjust--I know it hurts--but--oh well:eek:. All my hobbies cost when it comes to fuel.

As far as Bio and Ethanol---thank Ethanol for the cost of veggie's going up and meat as well as dairy. And the EPA has found out that it is worse on the enviroment than petro fuel. They are just keep it from the public--OPPS--they were(are) wrong on this idea.
As far as ANWR---Start drilling baby. The damage done when the Alaska Pipeline went in was hard to believe---Minimal--it was going to kill off the caribou---HAHAHA--what a bunch of idiots(tree huggers) that came up with that one:mad:.

Yammadog---I well understand 8% profit--after write offs---but you got to have it to write it off--and if the government says you can write it off--don't ya!! It is all part of the game.
I beleive the point I was trying to make was--They are not making 100% or even 50% as most would believe they are.


Good To Go---Some people just do not get it--or with it;)
