Diesel hit a new high in my area, $5.69 a gallon! And the real pisser, off road diesel is $5.78 a gallon! Usually, the off road fuel is 30 cents per gallon less due to not having the road taxes included. I asked the gal behind the counter, she said they just got a delivery of off road and that's why it changed. I went to the same place 2 weeks ago and bought 20 gallons of off road, it was the usual 30 cents less than on road, but it still cost over 80 bucks.
Who the fu*k can afford that kind of fuel cost? Purely intentional by the Govt.

Going to get real SHTF, when diesel is so hi we can't afford it to, keep the trucks running.

Who the fu*k can afford that kind of fuel cost? Purely intentional by the Govt. Yep. One place just south of me had diesel at $5.03/gallon - .30 cheaper than the closest one to me.. I filled up my pickup at the 5.03 place and it was twelve bux short of $200!!! Needless to say, I try not to drive anywhere I don't have to... I shudder to think of what it costs the farm I work for part-time, especially at harvest time when I'm running a CLAAS 970 and there's six wagons to keep filled on a rotating basis.. The chopper holds 300 gallons, and each tractor holds anywhere from 125-175 gallons each.. At the end of each day, I've only got 15-20% of fuel left in the tank on the CLAAS. The farm has a 10,000 gallon tank and during harvest it's filled every other day. Think of THAT cost!

I would only be burning diesel for serious contractor duties, for a 1-ton or dually.
I see a bunch of lardass fleshies running around town with all nine 400 lb family members going to Gold Corral or Sam’s Club in their squatted Dodge 6 door club cab and not even a ball hitch on hitch on it.

From what I've read in previous vehicle and fuel price threads, this means you are homosexual and possibly also unpatriotic. How will you roll coal on the bicyclists you pass on your daily breakfast run to MacDonald's?

It's still cheaper than Roundup for spraying weeds.

Going to top off the overhead tank when Joey's diesel shortage sets in it should be like hunting over a corn pile....
