I'm seeing gas starting to go down around here. It's back down to the $4.15-4.19 range, while D2 is still holding steady at $3.99-4.09.
In my corner of So. Cal I noticed D2 has dropped a couple cents since I got the JSW.
At the Shell I normally fuel at RUG $4.299, SUG $4.499 and D2 $4.439 and the closest competing station, a Mobil had D2 for $4.419.
The Shell has two D2 only pumps and 6 dual fuel pumps while the Mobil has only 2 dual fuel pumps.
I do get up to Ontario, CA on occasion. I keep those spots in mind since I don't mind saving a buck now and then. Thanks.
Should you happen to be up in the Ontario California area, try these stations:
The Union 76 at the Ontario Mills Maul, D2 is $4.319, their cash price.
At the Union 76 at Grove and Walmut just off the I-60, most of
the time, always the same as the station at the Ontario Mills Maul.
Good fuel and the lowest prices I know of in our the immediate areas for quality fuel.
It's not worth it to travel all that way from our area just to save
a few cents per gallon, but if you are in the area anyway . . .
When I'm 'in-the-area' and our CDI is low, I can save as
much as a couple of dollars per full tank, so why not?

Filled up for $4.31 at Quick Trip in El Cajon. At least prices seem
to have stopped going up. RUG was $4.15 at Costco in Santee.
Think the spread will continue to narrow into summer?seen Sunday
Still an outlier -- but the spread continues to narrow, gradually.
In past years I was tempted to make predictions about the date when diesel would be cheaper than RUG. One year I predicted May 15th and hit it right on the nose. Another year the spread widened instead of narrowing.Think the spread will continue to narrow into summer?
Ain't it grand, some stations here have diesel cheaper than premium (what I "had" to put in when I drove a gasser, I put 85 in my Kawi ZX11)In the Denver Metro area D2 has settled at $3.849-3.99, RUG is $3.739-3.859, E-85 is $3.099-3.199. At more than a few stations that sell RUG and D2 the difference between the two has dropped to as little as $0.06-0.15 which hasn't been the case in at least 7 years in Colorado..............
The USA is now the largest exporter of refined fuels in the world. Yes, you read that right.And the patterns of exports and imports have changed -- there is less cheap imported gasoline from Europe, and more exports of products to Mexico and Latin America...
If the Jones Act was repealed, then more relatively-cheap fuel from the Gulf Coast could be shipped to the Northeastern states where it is in relatively short supply. That would reduce exports but it would reduce the prices of gasoline and distillates in those states.The USA is now the largest exporter of refined fuels in the world. Yes, you read that right.
Actually, the US has been the leading supplier of finished fuel to the rest of the world for quite some time.The USA is now the largest exporter of refined fuels in the world. Yes, you read that right.
