Not to toot my own horn too loud. Just over two years ago I posted that $2 gal fuel could be coming. I linked to an oil industry trade journal showing potential huge price drops in fuel related to the fracking revolution. I was attacked by a whole host of rightwingers (You know who you are) calling this an absurd crazy posting meant only as a liberal posting somehow? related to the upcoming Presidential election. Really, a surprise to me.
The moderator agreed this was a crazy political posting somehow and deleted the posting before I could defend myself. Just passed a station with $2.29 posted and sinking fast. Just sayin.
And guess what, we'll see it hit $5 someday too. I predict.
On a serious note I am enjoying the cheaper diesel prices but not holding my breath to much for next summer when we actually do a bunch of the traveling and prices always rocket back up.
Wish I had a 10,000 gallon tank at home I could fill for next summer....
The summer of 2008 when it was 4.85/gallon for diesel got old swiping the debit card 3 times to fill a tank.
