Not that anyone will care, but to add to your list E-85 was $1.59 in owasso. LolDiesel $2.05
RUG $1.79
E-free $2.17
.... and this means my TDi cost 'bout half as much to drive one mile as my wife's RAV4
.... (she uses the E-free)
The NJ gas tax increase was all at once, the diesel tax was two phase and this is the second.
SC fuel taxes go up tomorrow too. The tax is going to increase 2 cents per year for each of the next six years. So 12 cents overall but not all at once, which is how the news has been reporting it. Still makes it 19 cents per gallon less tax for me to drive across the state line. SC will be 18 cents and NC is 37.5 cents. Although I don't see that large of spread between prices at the stations. 24 cent spread for rug and a 2 to 13 cent spread for D2. As I look at prices, I'm surprised to find Charlotte diesel prices increasing the closer you get to the state line.
It hasn't gotten cheaper down here on my stretch of the Gulf Coast yet, but it's reached parity at one station. Our Tom Thumb was last seen selling both regular and diesel for $2.059. That's also the cheapest diesel anywhere around, although I expect other stations to match it before too long.
Higher cetane. I'm dubious that any real premium diesel is available at US filling stations. The fuel I have delivered to my house is for marine use (with road taxes paid by me) and is 46 cetane. Shell in Canada has 46 or 48 cetane premium diesel. I've used it up there for track days and it does make a difference.
CARB Diesel is 50 minimum.
Massachusetts is a CARB state and all the automotive diesel pumps have a 40 cetane sticker on them.
