In the Palouse country.
Morning of 6/2
4.95 regular
5.57 diesel
As of this afternoon (6/2)
5.05 regular
5.67 diesel

The steady rise in diesel is the one that concerns me. Where we live farming and logging are the backbone of the economy. Nationwide the impact of these prices may well devastate rural america. I’m sure that many of you can relate to the issues of rural living: 55 mile round trip to a local supermarket; 7 mile round trip to pick up mail; and so on. We are busy cutting wood on our place for the coming winter out of concern for what might be in the future.

I am thankful to be retired with a decent income but for young families in our area this will be crushing.

Worst of all our nation is currently being led by a misanthrope who must be filled with glee over the carnage he has wrought.

$4.99 now in MQT. 20 cent jump in 24 hours.
Possible +: Less tourists!

It seemed like it was finally starting to go down a few cents, last fill up was $4.75 a gallon on way to work Tuesday then today it’s $4.95…WTF

OKC Costco has risen to $3.98 for regular, it looks like it will be $4.00-plus in the next day or so. I know some of you, well probably most everybody, is paying more, much more than that.

That's a psychological barrier, going past the $4.00 per gallon and thinking gee I remember the good old days.

When we got shut down by the Coivid and the gooberment in early 2020, this Costco got down to 99 CENTS per gallon regular in April 2020, maybe May. I still have some receipts, I think, of this price.

Go do the math on that.

I have family in several parts of california and I am hearing the wailing and gnashing of teeth. Time to pull the eject handle and bail out of that state.
.

Five plus dollars a gallon out here.

Granholm is still sticking it to us in Michigan.

Remember her promise during the run for her second term as Governor here in Michigan “In five years you’ll be blown away”……….

Fill up the wife's car over the weekend: $4.099 for 87
Filled mine up this morning: $4.299 for 87 at the same station.

About midway through this week, it had gone up to $4.199

I had to top off my tank yesterday evening. $4.99/gal for 87 Octane

I am actually now thankful my car is hybrid and get around 40 mpg, but this is still ridiculous.

$5.36 for premium this morning.

I didn't get the receipt for the 5 gal of 90 non ethanol.

Only $4.99/100ct on Amazoot this morning:

$6.49 is the norm around here for 87. $6.79 for 92.

Yep, $6.49 a gallon at the station down the street from me.

one day last week I put $165 in my truck, and I fill up 3 times a week. changes are coming soon to Casa Navyshooter

I was talking to a friend at work this week and he told me his wife had to go to LA and saw a station there where it was $8.00 a gallon.....I hope she was wrong.

OKC Costco has crossed the line and jumped to $4.07 for Regular and the Premium is $4.44

Across town, the Moore Costco is still showing $3.85 but I'm sure that will jump over $4.00 any time soon now.

Went by 2 stations side by side this afternoon. One had reg. at $4.38 still and one had it at $4.59. There were still people pumping gas at the one for $4.59 despite the 21 cents per gallon difference. The $4.38 was a major brand, Mobile, and the more expensive was a off brand.

Gas has now gone up twice today alone around here, now it’s $5.09 a gallon, I filled up on Tuesday for $4.75 a gallon.



FJB!!!

In less than two weeks I've got a 1200+ mile trip to drive. Not looking forward to spending extra money on fuel.

Gas went from $3.93 to $4.37 today.

Chevron previously mentioned is now at $6.89 / gallon for premium.

Costco is the cheapest gas in these parts, fortunately, I have three around me that have gas stations:

Reg/Prem
$5.69 / $6.08
$5.89 / $6.19
$5.99 / $6.34

every fill-up is an eye-watering experience

Gone up over $.40 since I've been on the ship.



I'll let my Jeep speak for me:
