Diesel price...

[MrCypherr]

Good ol rez has diesel for $1.48. Doesnt look like it is that much of a jump anymore.

Thats a dirty April fools joke. Kicking myself for not filling my slip tank last week, 1.62 is the cheapest I've seen in a while.

My wife was showing me some clowns last night on social who were getting fuel and live streaming that no one should buy fuel this week to "show the government" that we won't stand for this....

$3.99 per gallon in the Shenandoah valley of Virginia. I have Canadian cousins so I enjoy following your diesel price.

MuH FrEeDuMb!!!1!!!111!

144.9 at Wolf Energy. Regular was 145.9, been a while since diesel was lower. Also lower than last week, despite the carbon tax increase.

 

[TDIGAZ]

Only 8 fill-ups for 2024, so a very small sampling size...
7152 km driven, total fuel used 368 liters, cost for fuel $588.
That results in fuel economy of 5.14 l/100kms and fuel cost to drive 100km of $8.22
Diesel average price (at the time of my fill-ups) for 2024 has decreased to 159.7 cents per liter, compared to 171.1 cents per liter, in 2023.
Gasoline average price (at the time of fill-up) for 2024 has actually increased to 151.0 cents per liter, compared to 149.7 in 2023.
Most fill-ups in Eastern Ontario.

cost for fuel $588.

You make me want to puke!
My insurance rate was jacked up more than that for no reason at all. (read moving to a different postal code in the same city)

You say no reason at all, insurance company cites poorer claims experience in your new postal code.

I like tracking the fuel I use. Here my 2024 fuel up prices trend.




Below is my total fuel ups to date on my 2003 TDI. This is missing the first 6 years of fuel ups because I didn't own a smart phone until about 2009 and likely the Fuelly app didn't exist. If I extrapolate out I think my overall fuel costs would be around $36K.

 

[Uberhare]

I haven't looked around yet, but a local station jacked the diesel price to 1.75 today.

 

[TurboABA]

Seems legit... I paid 1.6something on my way home

 

[P2B]

149.9 on the reserve today. Diesel price usually peaks in January, it was 158.9 this time last year and 170.9 in January 2023.

 

[Uberhare]

If it gets too pricey, I'll just pump some of the 130 gallons out of my bus.

 

[Steve140]

I’ll start running jet fuel and 2 stroke oil at 50:1 again if it gets too expensive. I the Rez is 1.519 now. It was 1.379 a couple weeks ago.

 

[Uberhare]

Seeing 1.68 to 1.70 around here now. The one station that jumped the gun at 1.75 dropped it to 1.70 today.

 

[cdi320]

Given how cold it's been (versus previous years), i'm surprised it's not more then 1.70-1.75, gas isn't far behind at 1.55-1.60

 

[Johhny04]

Doesn't help that there was a $0.25 increase in Carbon tax on diesel on Jan. 1 2025. Weather isn't playing a factor for the jump in RUG and D2 since Jan. 1

Bullshit.

As of April 1, 2024, the federal carbon tax on diesel in Ontario is 21.39 cents per liter. This tax is scheduled to increase to 25.40 cents per liter on April 1, 2025.

You're right. My timeline is off by 4 months. Glad you cleared by bullshit up...........but the real bullshit is the tax itself.

100%

I suspect that whoever gets elected as the new CLP leader will scrap the tax as they know it is widely unpopular among many canadians.

I definitely get more in rebate cheques than I pay in carbon tax, not sure why that's so unpopular.

You need to recheck your math. There is absolutely no way this government gives you back more than they take. Did you factor in the price of everything you purchase that has increased? Almost everything that was made or shipped to you involves petroleum products.

There is no way to accurately calculate the impact fuel costs have on goods and services I buy, but you are correct, it is a factor.

I get more in rebates than I pay in carbon tax on fuel and natural gas.

Check your hydro bill lately? Mine has more carbon tax than actual electricity. We easily pay in 1 month what we get back per quarter not even factoring in inflation on food and goods.

Just checked my quarterly bill. Electricity $330, Delivery $300, Regulatory Charges $21, HST $85, Ontario Rebate -$101, Total $635. No carbon tax.

Electricity is not considered a fossil fuel, so is not subject to carbon tax.

Diesel prices in Winkler right now:

Superstore: $1.68/L
Co-op: $1.78/L

Gosh darn it! Those darn PP bootlickers will eat anything up about carbon tax!
